Local Vendors = Better Shows

Worth the walk

The last theater I worked at ordered the wrong hat on Amazon before I could tell them not to.

when you put Knicks baseball cap into the search.

Did you know that a flat brim wearing Knicks fan would see the above brims and gag? An announcer briefly mentioned that Georgians love a bent brim and my son whimper-winced. Brand-loyalty second… Brim-loyalty first.

Hold on. I have to turn off my ringer. I am expecting a panicked phone call from my husband when he sees these screen shots show up on his desktop (our desktops are very unfortunately linked - so when I leave photos of bras and baseball hats on the homescreen his coworkers get to assign many varied character-traits to their boss).

the brand on that first one is Ultra Game…hmmm…never heard of it.

Found it! That first one is the one the associate designer ordered.

It was snap back and generic. Made of poly/cotton, not acrylic/wool. The thread was the wrong color and the logo was from the wrong year. I didn’t even show it to the actor. He would have lost all faith in me - we were trying to show this city that we loved them. Getting the sports paraphernalia wrong is a sport-city crime.

Give me a second while I erase the above images from my desktop so my husband doesn’t puke on his keyboard.

While I am clearing my desktop and erasing my search history - you can subscribe for $5? or did I make it $10? I wanted the price to scare away anyone in theater that wants to get mad at me for questioning our Amazon subscription.
