Neil Zurcher Takes 'One Tank Trip' to Lakewood for Talk at the Library

After traveling a million miles, Neil Zurcher has a lot of stories to tell.

 The longtime host of TV’s "One Tank Trips" shared a few of them at on Wednesday night.

Zurcher talked about how he met Prince Charles in a bathroom. He’s also raced an elephant. And survived a hotel fire and a tornado, and he’s avoided some close calls with some angry carp.

The crowd of about 35 people found plenty of amusement in Zurcher’s stories. A crowd favorite were a few of the letters sent in to him during his 40-year career.

He shared some of his favorite memories, and a few more in his new book “Tales From the Road.”
