Surprised with a plane ticket, CBS News' David Begnaud finds a Savannah shoe shining legend

As part of a new series, "CBS Mornings" surprised lead national correspondent David Begnaud with a plane ticket at the airport, just hours before boarding, with the challenge of finding a special story once he lands. We kicked things off in Savannah, Georgia, where David's journey led him to a man who has kept a dying craft alive.

    We have 50 states and D.C. We would love for David to travel and do stories in all 50 states and D.C. That would be nice !!! We already love On-The-Road with Steve Hartman, The Up-Lift, Sunday Morning with Jane Pauley, and David should be added to this list of great-stories.

    He could do what Charles Kuralt did or a "where in the world?" is David Begnaud like Matt Lauer did.

    I know its a stunt, but its still cool for the mayor to show up to get his shoe shined for the sake of marketing the citizens of Savannah. "put your people in it" - juvenile the rapper.

    Don't leave the festival area with that cocktail. The city ordinance sends any non Savannah residents straight to jail. Take bail money with you. Also try not to get robbed or killed. Watch yourself Savannah.

    As you approach the escalator is going down to get your luggage in Savannah Airport there are two chairs with a shoe shine gentleman that's been at the Savannah Airport for years you walked right past him you did not do all your diligent reporting.
