Meh, whatever your boss said, you got to talk to Rod Wright, hopefully give him some words of encouragement and talk about the Dolphins. And you were billable while you did it! That's a great experience, and we're all jealous.
I hear ya... I was in Miami on a shoot I was producing a couple of years ago and we rented a mansion for our location. Well, wouldn't you know it... not ONLY was the house owner Marino's NEIGHBOUR (his house was across the street)... but the guy was a dolphins NUT. Memorabilia EVERYWHERE. Hell, we spent a half hour talking about how Mark dixon's injury had hurt our offense. Anyways, we were shooting on Saturday, set to fly out sunday and this guy invited me to the game to sit in his luxury box, then to GO ONTO THE SIDELINES!!!! I was freaking out... but we had a strict corporate policy of not accepting gestures/freebies/gifts from anyone with whom we did business. My stupid, frowny-face superiors wouldn;t let me take a later flight and go to the game. It doesn't bother me at all, though. Bpk
FINAL UPDATE: Jason Allen Finally Came In So Jason just left. Nice guy, pretty low key and laid back. He's one of those guys that is funny without trying to be. For example, a good friend of mine who works in the office was wearing an Ole Miss Baseball shirt. Jason sees him and says "Ole Miss Baseball, you played for them didnt you?" My friend says "Nope. Just a fan. You went to Tenn. right?" Jason replies with a blank look on his face, "Oh...you looked familiar" Im trying to hold back some laughter and utter the words "I guess all you SEC guys look alike" We all have a good laugh. No pictures kids sorry. And he didnt seem to responsive when I briefly talked about the Phins. He was more worried about the products he wanted to purchase (I guess thats understandable) So there you have it. My little adopted by... all grown up
Looked like he just got done working out. Prolly headed back to the facil... What kind of dumbass question is that?!
OMG he's prolly out fishing with Beck and slacking off this is why we were 1-15 because the players don't care but the Tuna will straightne this team out and we'll be back to our winning ways DAVONE BESS MVP WOO
God HKXXX, you don't have to brag. eh jk, glad you got to meet him. Wish you the best with your biz bro.
you should have tossed his item to him from across the store.... then he could be out of position and drop it.
Oh god please dont mention Reggie Howard's name. I can't stand that guy. One of my fears in life is meeting him.
THe oakland A's blog fansite i'm on Has a regular visitor in Brad Zeigler. Didn't seem like much being a AAA pitcher who has bounced around the minors his whole career, but hearing him now after his scoreless innings record is really cool. The guy is so humble and still makes time to tell the A's fans how things are going for him. It would be really cool if Allen somehow dropped by thephins.com
Its called Airmiles and facebook, except they don't only share the information, they sell it In return you get points or to use the online high school caffeteria! But i do agree, keeping your clients info close to you is a selling feature in itself. If their information is not leaked and they instill trust in you, your selling them the intangible they can trust you. Thats smart ethics by HardKore
That's kind of a crazy statement. It's what we're here for. Those were great stories HardcoreXXX. Keep them coming next time a Phin comes in.
Funny that this thread was bumped. Ernest Wilford has been in a few times recently. He's a real nice guy and after meeting him you really want him to do well. Hopefully he picks it up and starts playing like we all know he can.
please tell me it isn't a wizzinator and that him and ricky don't plan on sharing!!!. can't wait for the pic.
in the same vein, if you came into his store and bought something, he wouldn't go telling everyone. As a business owner, it is not good business to go advertising what other people purchased or used without their approval. Now if a customer was in the store and posted it, oh well fair game but Hardcore cannot as the transaction between him and a client is private and the client regardless of who it is has expectations of privacy unless he waives that expectation.
There aren't any pics sadly. You have to read a few pages back to see why. NO! It was a Quarter Pounder and fries.... stupid....
