Sorin lobby TV stolen

Another Canadian stick sport jumps the border

It’s 7 p.m. on March 31. From a distance, downtown St. Paul looks like a quiet city on a cold, rainy evening but take a closer look and see what’s up at Excel Energy Center. Loyal enthusiasts of the rapidly growing sport, lacrosse, gather about for the 1000th professional lacrosse game played since its inception in 1987. The game played was the Minnesota Swarm v. the Colorado Mammoth.

The Oracle sits down for a one-on-one interview with Shia Labeouf, former star of Even Stevens to discuss his leading role in the exciting new thriller, Disturbia, and his growth as an actor.

When meeting a celebrity, one often wonders what they might do or say. Asking someone who starred in a television show you watched when you were younger how his or her day was seems nothing short of insane. There is no way that it could even be possible to hope that you might operate on the same spectrum, and that can be intimidating. It was surprising then, that when interviewing Shia LaBeouf, star of the new movie Disturbia, his demeanor was so casual that I was at ease when chatting with him, even at one of the swankiest hotels in downtown Minneapolis.
