Video: Patch Blogger Rolls With The Rock

Long Beach will be throwing the 340-ton rock star of rocks a party Wednesday as it wheels into town at 8 mph. That's where our intrepid Belmont Shore-Naples Patch blogger and chronically curious Trish Tsoi-a-Sue cornered the massive boulder Tuesday night.

Watch the spectacle here as cars are backed up passing the rock on its rig bound for the LBC. Mayor Bob Foster has a date with the granite and media corps about 5:15 a.m., and later, at a street party for the rock's stop.

"I Want to Rock with You," is hosted by the Bixby Knolls Business
Improvement Association.

Many Belmont Shore residents are planning to go see The Rock--ala the Olympic Torch Run - in what has to be the Best Public Relations Campaign of 2012. By a MUSEUM. If you can't get there, we're told KABC-TV is broadcasting from Long Beach love between 5:30 a.m. and 6:30 a.m.

Post your photos of The Rock!
