Jonas’ Trump TurkeySome teenagers skipped Thanksgiving dinner to meet the Jonas brothers.

Four girls from New Jersey waited for 60 hours in the cold weather because they love Kevin, Nick and Joe.

Other fans traveled from Chicago, Maryland and

New Hampshire to New York City. The brothers signed books for fans at a book store.

No matter how long they waited or how far they traveled, all the Jonas-lovin’ teens agreed: it was well worth it.
