Harlem Globetrotters Really Know How To Make a Foul Shot Uncomfortable

Lou Russo — Fri, 15 Mar 2013 10:35:46 +0000

When I stepped up to the foul line during the Globetrotters game, I had no idea that Big Easy was going to tuck my uniform shirt in for me. And I really had no idea he was going to hike my shorts up to my armpits. No wonder nobody beats this team. Needless to say, [...]

Jersey Shore's Toughest Jobs: Boogie Nights at Tropicana In Atlantic City

Lou Russo — Mon, 19 Nov 2012 13:25:22 +0000

I got the call that I was going to be working at Boogie Nights at the Tropicana in Atlantic City for the next installment of Jersey Shore’s Toughest Jobs. Sounded great. I figured I would be asked to be a brawny bouncer or a bartender right out of “Cocktail” or something. I figured wrong. It [...]

Another birthday. I have to admit, it is fun being able to have your birthday party live on the radio. And of course to share it with great friends, Mom and Dad and a beautiful wife! It’s hard to believe, but this is my 11th birthday party live on the air since we started the Lou & [...]

Lou Russo — Tue, 18 Sep 2012 11:30:15 +0000

I got the call from Nicholas Pools in Toms River to see if I wanted to work with them, helping to provide pool cleanings with their “Pool Butler” service. Of course, I said I’d love to, and made my way over there to find out how I could “help”. First of all, their showroom at [...]

Back To School Memories…I Wasn't Exactly Easy To Deal With

Lou Russo — Tue, 28 Aug 2012 13:14:33 +0000

I was never a big fan of back to school. The mere mention of September gave me a stomach ache. I still get queasy when leaves crunch under my shoes. I also get sad when I see marble notebooks. It’s not like I didn’t do well in school. I did. And it’s not like I didn’t have friends. [...]

Christie Rampone Brings The Gold To Jersey Shore University Medical Center

Lou Russo — Mon, 27 Aug 2012 10:19:55 +0000

If somebody told me a year ago that I would be posing for photos wearing an Olympic gold medal around my neck, it would have shocked me. And yet it happened. Dreams do come true! The only problem is it wasn’t mine. I’m sure you figured out by now that the gold medal around my neck was the one [...]

Lou Russo — Tue, 21 Aug 2012 10:52:19 +0000

As the great people at Yo Got It Frozen Yogurt Lounge on Arnold Ave in Point Pleasant Beach put together one of the coolest places around, I’m sure they weren’t thinking, “Wow, if we could only get Lou to work the counter this place would be perfect”, and yet it has happened! It was awesome [...]

I’m starting a series of videos called “Jersey Shore’s Toughest Jobs” and my first stop? Teaching a class at Jazzercise! Yep, the gang at Jazzercise actually WANTED me to get up and front of a class and run the show. So I did. I’m not going to say I changed the landscape of Jazzercise forever, but [...]

A Day Of Summer Fun At The Jersey Shore With The Jet Lev!

Lou Russo — Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:49:00 +0000

Imagine jumping into the beautiful Jersey shore waters knowing in minutes you’ll levitate ten, twenty ofr thirty feet in the air. It’s possible with the Jet Lev at Jersey Shore Watercraft Rentals in Seaside. The Point Crew and I visited there yesterday! The wind was whipping up yesterday so the Jet Lev was grounded so the great [...]

Lou Russo — Mon, 06 Aug 2012 11:20:51 +0000

I had the opportunity to visit the Oak Street School in Lakewood this past Friday during their summer camp and I had a great time! As soon as I walked into the school I was greeted by signs on both walls in the hallway that the kids had made to greet me. I wish i could show you pictures of [...]

I always have a great time at First Energy Park, whether I'm checking out a Lakewood BlueClaws game or, like last night, having a blast being the guest PA announcer for the game. The staff behind the scenes is just as awesome as the staff you see throughout the stadium.

Diane and I knew we’d see my niece and nephew this weekend. How could we top the “World’s Biggest Gummi Worm and Gummi Bear” we showed up with last time? It wasn’t easy, but I think we pulled it off. What could we get Sara and Sal that they would love and be something only an aunt [...]

The Coffee Lid And How It Represents The New Jersey Spirit [Jersey's Point of Lou]

Lou Russo — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 12:25:33 +0000

It's happened to all of us. First thing in the morning we pick up the most important tool in our battle against another workday in the Garden State, the cup of coffee. We anticipate the joy of that first sip. We take it and immediately feel something wet on our chin, and seconds later on our shirt. The lid is leaking...again!!
