Soup Cans Mistaken for Bombs

On October 30th, 2013, Tracey Bell was the Emcee for the Canadian Special Events Expo in Calgary.

The all-day event was held at BMO Center, a Calgary Stampede venue.

Tracey gave out dozens of promotional cans of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup at the special event presentations and trade show.  The special soup cans feature pictures of Tracey as the Divas in her celebrity impersonation show; Cher, Madonna, Celine Dion, Marilyn Monroe, Julie Andrews, Dolly Parton, Tina Turner, Janis Joplin and Liza Minnelli.

At the end of the day, Tracey packed up and took a box of the cans to the front door to be picked up. When she went back; bringing her cases of costumes and wigs to the door, the cans were gone.

The Federal Conservative Party Convention was kicking off the next day and Canada’s top security people suspected that the heavy box might contain a bomb! Tracey was told that they had considered calling the bomb squad.

The cans were returned to her.
