Roker talks with Ben Franklin

After Lauer interviews the MAN WHO WAS CUT IN HALF, which can't be seen from here, since Lauer's in New York, Roker does the weather with Ben Franklin. Roker says Franklin was one of the original meteorologists, and asks if that kite and key story was true. Ralph Archbold, the city's Franklin impersonator, quips, "If there's a thunderstorm, I'l let you pull the string."

Roker mentions Archbold's recent marriage to Betsy Ross - actually the woman who plays her here in Philly - and Archbold says it happened July 3, right here on Independence Mall, with music by Philly Pops.
