Where can I find these clips?

There are at least 2 clips from television that feature/mention the Corn Palace that I've been meaning to use on this blog since I started it but have not been able to find. I will link to a couple pages that mention them, but have searched many, many times for them and have not been able to find any clips or other evidence.

Road Rules:

On the first season of Mtv's Road Rules they went to the Corn Palace. I remember watching the episode on TV in college when I lived in Mitchell. I can not find a clip and the only references I can find are in summaries of the previous episode 01/12 "Crash Up and Bang Up Time",

"Over the loudspeaker, the cast finds that the next mission will take them to Mitchell, South Dakota, where they will visit the Corn Palace."

The next episode 01/13 "Meeting the Stoned Presidents" is mentioned, but I can't even find a summary of the episode, let alone a clip.

If anyone can point me towards a clip or at least a summary, I'd appreciate it.

Teen Angel:

This one is a mention and maybe an image. It's from when the Teen Angel guy is talking to God... or his head... or maybe his friend who he was sent back to help or something... I don't remember this show very well. I don't remember seeing this episode, but my wife told me about it and I looked it up. All I could find was a couple line on a message board somewhere:

Rod: "Quit doing that, or I'll send you there!
Mike: "Not The Mitchell Corn Palace in Mitchell South Dakota!?!"
Rod: "What?! No, the other there! I'm talking about Hell!)



That's the only reference I've been able to find! I would love to see this clip an post it! If you have it or know where I can find it, please let me know!


Love,

The Corn Palace around Mitchell

I was in Mitchell last week and took some pictures of signs and such around town that referenced the Corn Palace.














If you have any Corn Palace sightings in TV shows, comics, or other media, send them my way!

Space Skull and Corn Palace



Here's one of the Space Skull online comic strips that mentions the Corn Palace. It's kind of mean for no reason.

Lawrence Welk... er... Stan Freberg?

Here's an odd Corn Palace sighting. This is a video of "The Lawrence Welk Show" set to a parody of "the Lawrence Welk Show" by Stan Freberg called "Wun'erful, Wun'erful!". There is a picture of the mighty palace of corn at the 00:26 mark or so. I wish I could find the actual clip and hear if the Corn Palace is mentioned by Welk.
