TODD MAKES SOME 'NOISE' AT ELECTRONICS EVENT
GREETS HUNDREDS OF FANS, MEDIA AT E3 VIDEO GAME BOOTHS

Anyone who has attended E3 will get the headline joke about Todd making some "noise" in what has to be the loudest place on Earth each May. If you've never been there, turn up your stereo, TV surround sound, clock radio, computer speakers, lawnmower, hair dryer and gaming systems simultaneously to full-blast mode and then multiply that sound 100 times over. That's E3, on a quiet day. http://spawn.com/news
