Seafood Fest kicks off with Stan Boreson

Ballard’s biggest annual event kicked off today in beautiful, warm weather.

As is customary for the Seafood Fest, the king of Scandinavian humor, Stan Boreson, was the first to take the stage at Bergen Place.

Boreson is celebrating his 60th year in the entertainment business, and he kept the crowd laughing with his jokes and songs including his recent favorite, “Just Don’t Look Good Naked Anymore.” He’ll be back on the community stage at Bergen Place tomorrow with another performance at 11 a.m.
