“You
just missed them!”
“Who?”
“The Beatles!”
“Where?”
“Right here! I told them you were
coming, but they had to leave.”
Ten-year old Diane Kopchinski of
Astoria, New York knew it couldn’t be true, but played
along
anyway like a suspicious but still gullible victim on Candid Camera. Ever since
seeing the
Beatles
on the Ed Sullivan Show two years earlier, she dreamed of seeing them live in
person.
And,
knowing her much older cousin Davey was a practical joker didn’t discourage
her. Neither
did
it stop Aunt Maggie from chiming in “They better not set foot in this house
with their dil-
tee
long hair!”
