With minutes ticking down to the takeover like an atomic bomb test, the guys took to the streets to greet the throng of assembled fans in Times Square. With chants of “Yes, we can! Yes, we can!” Johnny Knoxville amassed the troops and led the charge into the studio. From there, chaos took over: Preston Lacy had a panic attack five seconds in, Party Boy entered, dance parties ensued, Dave England’s cage was knocked over, furniture broke, Willie Nelson’s Spring Water was wildly promoted, and Ehren’s hair was yanked prematurely from his head—all while studio personnel were freaking out in the control room as the train violently pitched on the rails. Cue Wildboyz episode to mop up the studio and take a deep breath with 23 hours to go. Did I mention we’ve got a record 30-second delay button? Good times indeed!
