Over 1600 people visited Sacramento State Friday to view one of the most over-the-edge television shows aired in America, Politically Incorrect, with Bill Maher.

Viewers were in for racy conversation, but little did they know what goes on behind the scenes.

All dressed in uniform black shirts and “all access” passes, the University Unique volunteers helped Liz Petschauer, Project Manager of US Concepts, get ready this afternoon setting up chairs and preparing the stage with furniture and microphone checks.

Guests lounged in back rooms of the University Union before the show and during Maher?s monologue. Guy Torry and Maher had their own rooms and Christine O?Donnell, Dan Elliott and Jason Bryant shared a room.

These rooms were hardly decorated for the famous, with Maher in a closet size area with couches from the Union. Torry was stuck with the extra stage pieces, while the other three guests lived it up in style with their plastic chairs and folding tables. Lucky for them though, fruit, vegetables, soda and a copy of The State Hornet were provided for them.

Questions were highly political, but some dealt with homosexuals as scout leaders in the Boy Scouts of America, rap star Eminem, drug usage and young girls as sexual beings.

“Politically Incorrect” has been touring other universities such as University of the Pacific and Stanford, and East Coast schools as well. The last stop will be at George Washington University, three days before the presidential elections.
