Face Painting, and Easter Egg Stealing

Brandon Jackson, 1309 Emerald St. NE, described his experiences at the Second Annual Easter Eggstravaganza for Kids and Families, at Lincoln Park, on April 19. He was speaking with Marc Borbely.

We had to pick them up, and there was candy and a little gift certificate inside. It said "Winner," and you'd go over to the table and get your prize. And you could get your face painted, and you win prizes when you play games. My favorite part was when I stole 40 eggs from a boy. You did? Yeah! Because they all fell out of his thing, and I picked them up and put them in this pocket. You put them in your pocket? Was the boy upset? No. He didn't know. What did you do with the eggs? You still have them? No! I won a prize from them. What kind of prizes did you get? Oh, I got me a football, and lots. Candies. A football training card. §
