Leighton, the manager of Quasar Sheffield, got a big shock the other day! He arrived at work expecting just another 'normal’ Quasar Monday - and the 1st booking was due in at 11.30am
'I could hear excited voices coming up the stairs! which is quite normal' Leighton said.
'But when they walked into reception, I thought I was seeing things, I recognised them straight away because my wife never missed an episode of X factor when it was on the TV.’
It was the X factor finalists - Jedward, Olly, Stacey, Lucie, Danyl, Lloyd etc who had appeared at Sheffield Arena as part of their sell out UK tour. Apparently they wanted to have a bit of free time, and decided to escape to another world & have a couple of games at…Quasar Sheffield!
Everyone said that they had a great time and 2 of the stars (you can guess who) wanted to stay for more – but sadly they had to move on to another engagement.
‘ John & Edward seemed to really get into it and wanted to have their photo taken with Brian the Quasar Ork. I said they could have their photo if I could have their autograph! Which they were more than happy to give me.’
‘When everyone had gone I was left wondering if I had imagined it - But I had the photos to prove it! They were a really great bunch and they are welcome here anytime.’
