Anyone who has been to CF the last couple years & spent time with Banter BOTLs, watch this video & say who the Toyota forklift employee reminds you of, in voice, face & body type.
I haven't been to CF, I've only talked to one BOTL (Ken) on the phone, and I haven't looked ahead to see if you've already identified who you're talking about. If I was going to just guess based on the personality as revealed in messages and posts, I'd guess Barry. Guy in the video talks how I imagine Barry talks.
Nailed it, minus the tats, stretched earlobe & long beard.
I love when I'm right. Doesn't happen that often.
Funny thing about that, Raz. When I was at my first CF last year, I came out of the Galleria building and saw these two guys talking. Never met them in person, but immediately "knew" who they were: Barry & CB/Mike. As we were talking I saw these guys walking up the drive towards us, still 50 yds away and I said, "There's Dean & Jeff (Sooner)." Never met 'em before in my life. But from that I realized that you really do get to know the guys here on the banter on one level or another.
All this is at an event with 3,000 attendees on that day. It was around noon. Then we called Ken to make sure of his daughter's name & spelling, so Shorty Rossi could personally autograph his book that Dean bought for Ken's daughter. So Ken was present to the group ... by phone. It was really cool. So you being able to "imagine" how Barry might speak is not too far fetched.
Sly, it was very cool! Thanks again, and I think I got to talk to CB also? I think.
It was like a reunion & you were present by phone. At that point it was CB, Barry, Dean, Jeff & me (and my friend, EJ).
