MANHATTAN, Kan. (WIBW) - In honor of National Travel and Tourism week, the Manhattan Convention and Visitors Bureau brought a Little Apple native back home from the Big Apple, for a visit.
Born and raised in Manhattan, Kansas, Bridget Everett, stars in the HBO series Somebody Somewhere, which is loosely based on her life.
Many episodes feature cameos of Manhattan landmarks, such as Vista Drive-In and the Wareham Theatre.
Everett greeted fans and even high school classmates at City Park under the Johnny Kaw statue, sharing lots of laughs and reminiscing.
Everett was presented with a proclamation of May 3, 2022, being Bridget Everett Day in Manhattan and acknowledging her impact on tourism to the Little Apple during the Manhattan City Commission Meeting.
