TV Reminder: Sarah Palin on American Chopper Tonight
Republican presidential candidate, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and vice presidential running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., cheer as founder of Orange County Choppers Paul Teutul, speaks at a rally in Media, Pa., Monday, Sept. 22, 2008. McCain picked up a surprise gift, an Orange County Chopper motorcycle, courtesy of the American Chopper TV stars.
Alaska Governor Sarah Palin recently welcomed the crew from Orange County Choppers – whose custom motorcycle business is featured on TLC’s American Chopper – to Anchorage where show star Paul Teutul Sr. researched building a bike to honor Alaska’s 50-year anniversary of being a state.
“It means so much to the state of Alaska that these guys are building this bike that will honor statehood here,” Palin says in the episode, airing April 30 at 9 p.m.
Paul Sr. hangs out with the Governor in her office and talks about the Alaskan weather, snowmobiling and fishing in the summer. “I inherit whatever [husband] Todd rejects from the year before,” Palin says.
After inviting the OCC crew back for the summer months, she suggests having fun Alaska style, saying, “We’ll ride the bike to the fishing hole.”
Although initially nervous about the meeting, Paul Sr. says that he felt Palin was “a real down to earth person to talk to.”
And, as you can see, this is not the first time that Paul Teutul, Sr. has been with the Governor.
Flap’s going to watch.
