How nice that Olympic Champion Evan Lysacek was honored by his hometown of Naperville, IL and given a heroes welcome by 4,000 screaming studets at his former school.

Later Evan was presented with the keys to the city. :thumbsup:

Watch for Evan tomorrow night as he continues with DWTS.

That's very nice to read. I'll bet the students at that school remember this for a long time.

Here is another article about Evan's homecoming:

It does mention that his DWTS partner Ana was with him so they will probably show some clips of "Evan Lysacek Day" tonight on DWTS.
