Knucklehead Awards

[dmullen]

Arriving late Friday night we missed the awards banquet. Could someone post all the winners and awards. I heard they were a riot.

Keith stood up before his name was announced. That was a very funny moment.

That's kind of tough. I think that a report of the forum awards may require a video or audio clip. As with much comedy, it's partially BP's delivery that made some of them as funny as they were.

All I know is, I got "The Roburado Award." I'm not sure exactly what it was for. I guess it was for the forumite who had the name closest to "Roburado." Seriously, if someone has a video clip or something, I'd love to hear what BP said about the award, because his explanation went in one ear and out the other as I was making my way up to the stage. Anyway, thanks, BP (I think)!

Enjoyed the desert ride with you, Andrew!

Ditto...it was also really cool to meet Tyler outside the context of music. I was really pleased to see that he hasn't let all of this go to his head. He's just a great, ordinary kid. It'd be so easy to develop an attitude with talent like that, and I hope he "keeps it all real" with the help of you and others.

 

[Oldtoe]

Between his family and me, he knows we're just all crazy enough to embarrass him really badly if he does anything to provoke us.

That recap gave me a chuckle, Kevin. Thanks!

 

[Big Poppa]

it is the DB Cooper award...google him famous hijacker or an airplane

 

[Big Poppa]

These awards were supposed to be what happens in coachella stays in coachella but since they are public.......Jeffreys was most persistant AND universally disliked by entire eb staff
I think that poor sod thought it just me...I was the only one who could take him to task..
but enough about him

 

[Chewie]

I saw that typo before I read your comment BP and edited it accordingly. I just made sure the whole MM Sales staff know about Kevin's typo and lack of American 70's pop culture knowledge. "It's DB Cooper, Kevin not Doctor" I must have some mild tourets cause I find myself thinking out loud a lot.
Granted it happened before either one of us were born, but it's gotta be the most famous hijacking/robbery of all time. Come on!!

Just busting your balls Kev

 

[kbaim]

I'm told BP is considering a height requirement for the next bash.

 

[kevin]

that seems to make more sense than this.....
