VIDEO:  Thank you Connecticut!
 
 
Well, it's time to wrap up this amazing adventure known as Street Team '08. Since my stories depended on the people of Connecticut sharing a slice of their life with me, I decided to show my appreciation in this, my final Street Team video. I'd also like to thank MTV and The Knight Foundation for giving wings to this incredible experiment.
