Today I played Larry the Stag for The Hartford, which was celebrating its (gosh!) bicentennial with some events at the New York Stock Exchange and Helen Mills Theater.

Little did I know upon agreeing to the gig, or even upon waking up this morning, I would be on the platform for ringing the opening bell for the NYSE! Especially on such a visible day in the markets!

Here are some photos I found:
