Default Office cast at Steamtown Mall in Scranton

Was just at the mall today after the parade and was watching the cast members sign autographs and what not, when all of a sudden Brian was standing there holding up a Legion Of Doom shirt. He had a stack given to him for the rest of the cast, he recieved a loud round of applause for it to, just thought it was kind of funny. Maybe they'll make a appearance on the show? Never know!

For as much as I despise the "Legion of Doom" for making a mockery of the televised city council meetings and making the city out to appear worse than it truly is, I must admit that I thoroughly enjoyed reading about this! Thanks for sharing!

It's truly awe-inspiring to go onto YouTube and search for either "Scranton" or "The Office" and notice hundreds of thousands of fans have grown fond of the Electric City. Here are a few of my favorite clips pertaining to either the city, the show, or both. I especially enjoyed the second and third clips, which display the characters' impressions of the city when they were all interviewed by the Scranton Times-Tribune (nostalgia just oozes out here---a far cry from the corrupt dump that others on this forum would lead you all to believe).

There are many, many more out there as well, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Scranton's tourism industry expanding by leaps and bounds with "Office"-related traffic if and when we have the cast assembled for a convention and public meet-and-greet and/or finally establish the long-anticipated "Office" Museum downtown. No, Daniel, this will not "save" the city (as I know you'd be tempted to blurt out in a reply before calling me a stupid little kid), but it will most certainly help to improve its image to outsiders, which will help to increase private investment in the long-run.
