Blow the Whistle...Dance! Did I do that? (Halloween Celebration)

Post Represents: Saturday, October 29, 2011 (Halloween Weekend)

Review of Halloween party at Crown Bar on Santa Monica.



Motown Maurice celebrates Halloween 2011 as Urkel or is he playing himself? 

Enjoy my weekend theme song "Blow the Whistle"



Motown Maurice, I mean Steve Urkel... is having a great time. 

There's Steve Urkel in the house without a doubt.

Blow the Whistle and do the Urkel dance.  

Mc Hammer Attack

Motown Maurice / Steve Urkel found a french maid and a sexy mamma. 

Motown Maurice / Steve Urkel and Star Track guy.

Motown Maurice / Steve Urkel helps an old lady down the stairs. 

Whats my favorite words?..."Did I do that?"

Motown Maurice / Steve Urkel loves the attention. 

Your not Laura but you might be a keeper. 

Motown Maurice / Steve Urkel found his Twinkle Bell

This girl gave Motown Maurice / Steve Urkel her love. She really liked me. 

This was Wonder Woman. She was WONDERFUL. WOW. I really mean WOW. I'll remember our dance forever. 

Now this girl is my type of people. 

LA. The place where you'll never find the dance floor empty. 

Motown Maurice / Erkel found Eve and Adam was no where to be found.  Right on. 

The Tiger woman loves Steve Urkel /Motown Maurice.

Motown Maurice / Steve Urkel gets arrested by a slutty cop. 

What can I say. Steve Urkel has a lot of fans. 

The party is over and they still want to take pictures with Motown Maurice. I mean Steve Urkel. 


Unfortunately, this poor guy got knocked the *$%^ out after the party. I never saw he get back up.  He was breathing but  was certainly unconscious.

Final Thoughts

The whole night people went out of their way to give me mad props. Many stopped and said, "Urkel, I loved you on family matters. That was my favorite show. TGIF" Several times things got kinky when I asked the ladies to pull my suspenders.

On a too much information note: Dancing with these ladies gave me physical action I haven't received in a very long time. Nearly a year. I almost forgot how soft you ladies feel. This Urkel look has really been a working for me. It won't stop anytime soon. Before I arrived, one person at Subway told me I reminded them of Screech from Saved by The Bell.

This night is confirmation once again. The people are confirming and positioning my place in Hollywood as a Geek/Nerd. I can do it and I can dig it. Whats my favorite words? "Did I do that?" Blow the Whistle.

What you see here is just the beginning of a collaborative endeavor that significantly make an impact on 2012's Crash The Superbowl Doritos Contest. No more is needed to be said right now. Just wait, be patient and you will see for yourself soon enough.

Creative minds are in motion

Once the picture was snapped we all cracked. We couldn't hold our laughter anymore.

Our Doritos commercial may  just be a little scary.  

Don't worry this idea was cut. It didn't work.
