**Chris McMonigle** (1:35)
He was part of the Carton Show.

**Craig Carton** (1:36)
Let's invite Victor Cruz in.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:38)
Yeah, what's Victor Cruz doing? Yeah. Ask him if he was on the float, the parade for the Knicks. Victor Cruz? I could have sworn I saw him on the celebrity float. I could have sworn I saw that it was him.

**Craig Carton** (1:51)
Hey, stop it, Pete. Come on, man. I've told you a million times not to burp on the air.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:56)
That's disgusting.

**Craig Carton** (1:57)
Were you on?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:57)
And we know it's Chinese food too.

**Craig Carton** (1:59)
Were you? He had Chinese food today?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:00)
Yeah.

**Craig Carton** (2:01)
On the Knicks float?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:05)
Oh, I'm sorry.

**Craig Carton** (2:06)
Anyhow, here's Laurie is in Ocean Township, New Jersey. Hi, Laurie.

**Laurie** (2:11)
Hey, how are you?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:12)
Good.

**Laurie** (2:13)
How are you?

**Craig Carton** (2:14)
What are you going to go out to, Laurie? You start drinking yet or no?

**Laurie** (2:18)
No, I wish. Not yet.
But the first thing I want to say is for Gallo, that if he wants to start a first pitch at a Cyclones game, my son is actually, he's having a birthday party at Blue Claws and they're actually playing with Cyclones, just coincidentally. Yeah. And one of the options was he can be a mini manager or throughout the first pitch. So he can have his birthday party.

**Craig Carton** (2:39)
Well, the problem is Gallo's not nine. So it's a little different.

**Laurie** (2:43)
I don't know if there's an age limit.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:45)
No, you gotta be, at Blue Claws, is that what you said?

**Laurie** (2:48)
Yeah, it's like the Phillies want to just close this to me.

**Craig Carton** (2:51)
Yeah, yeah. Well, we could get Gallo on the Somerset Patriots field, but he specifically said Brooklyn.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:57)
No, we'll have a birthday party at Blue Claws, and then we'll have him throw out the first pitch.

**Craig Carton** (3:01)
Hey, look at that. Have those little triangle birthday hats with the wire under your chin that itches the hell out of you.
Yeah. So what'd you call for, Laurie?
