So... I'm working the auto show today in Del Mar.
I approach a vender to make a purchase.
We chat a bit... yadda, yadda, yadda.
They say they're from Las Vegas.
I ask, "Do you guys ever watch Dave Courvoisier on KLAS?"
They reply, "We watch him all the time!... We love the guy!"

Name dropping session produces... no discount on purchase.
Better luck next time.

No discount?

Pfft! They obviously don't love him THAT much if they can't float you a discount.

Don't forget Dave, we didn't get any discount at the restaurant in Mandalay Bay either, and they recognized YOU.

That's pretty surprising. I hear Courvo is kind of a big deal. Not to mention his apartment that smells of mahogany, filled with many leather-bound books... cool

DH,

Forget the smell of mahogany and books.... that "Dave" name carries incredible juice!

I know you know of what I speak.
