Customer Appreciation Week - Monday

Hey everybody. We kicked off our Customer Appreciation Week this week and it has been a ton of fun so far. Monday was a pretty exciting day. We kicked off the morning by going and giving some food to some radio stations in exchange for some airtime to talk about our upcoming week. Thanks to Blue and Korby Ray from Gator 107.9, Mitch and Alix from Star 92.1, and Tommy and Abbi from WKZQ for being such wonderful hosts to us and getting us some airtime.

After that we came back we jumped into our first ever Lemon Squeezing Contest. It was between 180 Degrees Church and Surfside Presbyterian Church. Here is a picture of Tom from 180 squeezing lemons like there's no tomorrow.

And here is a picture of Justin from Surfside Presbyterian Church going at it himself.

Thanks to Stuart from 180 for crossing party lines to hold the top of the Lemon Juicer for Justin when it was trying to fly around. Here are the guys after their hard work. Congratulations to 180 for winning the Nugget Tray by juicing 4 quarts worth of lemon juice in 5 minutes. I think Tom might have done this before. Just saying.

After the crazy Lemon Squeezing we grabbed a couple coolers full of 200 Chick-fil-A sandwiches and headed out the door. We drove down 544 and stopped at tons of local business with The Cow and handed out food. There were a ton of emotional connections made during this time. We were also able to let everyone know about all the events we have going on this week. Awesome times.

After that Will and I headed over to AVAC to pick up the wonderful 42" LCD TV they so graciously let us borrow for our Guitar Hero Night. We got back to the store and began to setup for the evening. We were running it through an XBOX 360 playing on the 42" TV while running the sound through a PA system that we are using for all the events this week. Needless to say, it was loud and big. Here's a picture of The Cow going up against Cody. Cody is an expert. If you ever see him out and about and he challenges you to a game of Guitar Hero, do not play him. I repeat, do not play him. He will beat you and then smirk at you just to let you know that he could do it again if he wanted to. I learned that firsthand.


Here's another picture from the evening which includes Will getting in on some of the Guitar Hero Action. Will on the other hand is not an expert when it comes to Guitar Hero. If he wants to play you, take him up on the offer. You will feel better about yourself after it is all said and done. No offense Will. ;-)

Keep an eye out here as I'll continue to be posting the highlights from the week.
