On a normal day in the Golden Bears 🐻 press box its just my partner Sam and myself working.
This weekend we had a production company in the house with us as they were broadcasting our Play- In games on a local streaming service.
The team of three included a producer , cameraman and the “Talent”…. Calling the on air personality the Talent is our way of making sure we don’t take ourselves too serious.
On your left is the Producer, Nick Elkins and on the right is Bill O’Brien.
We love having the extra coverage for our program so both Sam and I were trying to offer up all the inside information on our club to Bill in hopes of adding to the quality of the broadcast.
By the end of the first day we were straight up having fun with Bill and his friends ! Bill was knowledgeable and was appreciative of our inside scoops so we were looking forward to having another go at it on Saturday.
Today we hit the ground running 🏃♂️ with Bill, enough that we started swapping stories back and forth. The story that set Bill apart was him running for Mayor of Beckley a decade ago and winning the position.
That story was amazing on its own but he added that his campaign budget was $3.00!!!! That would have been interesting if he ran for Mayor in 1855 but it was 2014.
When I was young, a lifetime ago, my Dad would say, that’s as phony as a $3.00 bill. Back then I didn’t understand what he was talking about????
It turns out it wasn’t what he was talking about, it was who he was talking about ! I was able to hang out with 3 Dollar Bill and there was nothing phony about him !
