Rick-Rolled at Folklife!

The volunteers who spend an entire year organizing this year's Folklife Festival at Seattle Center could not have had a nicer weekend for the event.

And yes, it was PACKED!:

One of my favorite moments came just as some nut job was approaching people with a huge sign about God and the end of the world and the need to be "saved".  Close on his heels was the guy pictured below:
He had, what at first look appeared to be another religious sign. 

Then, upon closer inspection, turns out he was Rick Rolling the crowd!  He'd walk up to you, and show you that Rick Astley was "Never Gonna Give You Up".  At the very bottom of his sign, it says this comment is from "Astley 1:1".  

Nicely done, Rick-Rolling Folklife guy!
