Ah, yes...and so the volleyball skills finally pay off!  This spot called for real volleyball players, even though the main volleyball action was in the background behind the featured watermelon.  I’m in blue and Brian Corso from the AVP is in red.  The net was about 7 feet high and, although, it looks like we’re playing in a nice grassy area of the park, we’re actually spiking it up on a dirt access road at the top of a hill.  For the bite sequence, they had rows of fresh watermelon lined up for me to keep taking bites out of...I started swallowing the bites at first because it was so good, but then the director said, “you don’t need to be a hero...just spit those things out”.  Umm...okay.
