(00:00):
Is this one of those things thatif you wanted to go to just like
a couple of them, could youresell the other ones? Or oh?
I don't know about that, likethis could be like a money making venture
because that doesn't seem right. Well, they come electronically, but could you
transfer them to people? Again,I'm not I mean it's not my bag.
I mean this is you know,Mecca and the Big Ten Baseball Tournament.
(00:23):
The Big Ten Conference gave us thesetickets. So it's like, okay,
whatever your rules are, it's justlike if you win the tickets and
you get tickets to every game forthe entire session. I mean that's a
bunch of games. That's a lotof games, man, a lot of
games. So it's a lot ofgames. Is it like, there's no
way Jason from Gretna is going togo to every game? Right, you
(00:45):
wouldn't think so? So could hesell the tickets to people? I mean,
is there a market for that?I guess is my question. Yeah.
I wouldn't be equipped to give thatanswer, but I do know it
gets the end to every single BigTen Baseball game. Here, okay,
here you go. Here's my uhhere's another thing. Let just drop the
cap to my water you, uh, what do you think about that?
(01:07):
On a principal standpoint, you getyou win tickets, you're gifted tickets by
somebody else, you sell them?Or is that frowned? Upon which side
of that fence do you land onselling? It's a slightly different conversation.
I do firmly believe in the regift. I think some people are a little
(01:27):
a little wishy washy on the ideaof regifting. It depends on what we're
regifting. Matt, Let's be honest. Are you regifting underwear? Probably not
the right thing to do. Somebodygifts me a toaster and I end up
having two toasters, and I gota little brother without a toaster. I
might get my little brother a toaster. You know what I'm saying. That's
a toaster. But like underwear,come on, gently used. I don't
(01:49):
see what the problem is. Okay, underwear, Yes, that's a different
conversation about socks. Probably not.Uh yeah, that's what's the difference.
They're underwear for your feet. Yeah, that's a good point. That's a
good point. I don't know.It feels weird, especially if in your
inner circle. This is something likepeople would have seen already or have been
familiar with, or you knew thatthey had given somebody close to you one
(02:13):
of these. I don't know.I'm not a big regifter guy. Yeah,
yeah, I don't see the problem. Where's the harm? I just
I'll get like if I have mymom, bless her, she gave me
the same bird feeder twice. Ithink she just thought I wanted more of
them. I don't think she forgot. She was just like, I'm going
to buy more more bird feeders,and I just don't need the same bird
(02:35):
feeder, right, Like, there'snot a lot of practicality to having like
multiples of the same bird feeder.My buddy getting into the bird feeding industry
kind of in his backyard, andI just was like, hey, here's
a bird feeder to get you started. Yeah, it's a solid regift.
Yeah, but that's not like,hey, happy birthday. I needed to
give you something and this is somethingI wasn't using. That's completely different.
I was personally and uniquely equipped togift my buddy something that he was looking
(03:00):
for that I had an extra of, and I gave it to him knowing
that's something he was looking for.It wasn't like I had something I wasn't
using and needed an occasion to giftsomething I wasn't using to declutter my house.
Those are two different kinds of regifts. First one I think totally cool.
Second one cringe. M M yeah. I mean you wouldn't give your
(03:23):
own, your your George to somebody, would you. Wow? No,
But that's a collector's item at thispoint. That's that's value. Those whitewashed
holy uh down to the knees baggycargo George that you you walk around in.
I think they're pretty standard George.Only have one pair and I wear
(03:46):
them seldomly. But I do believethat you know. Well, the whole
conversation on gifting is is is aninteresting one because but it really all gets
back to the one central theme.Does it come from a good place,
like right, if you get somebodyat the red place like like bed bath
and beyond, or saying like ifyou canet place in the heart. Here's
here's okay, Well this is moreof a Christmas time conversation. But what
(04:10):
do you think about the Christmas list? Oh, you're gonna tell me what
you want for Christmas and then expectall these gifts just just to be lined
up at your doorstep, like Iwant to think about it, you know
what I mean? I would rathereveryone get me what something that came from
their heart and maybe miss the marka little bit, then me make a
list and have them go get it. I'm thirty seven years old. I
can get that myself. You knowwhat I'm saying, Oh, you need
(04:34):
a new pair of running shoes.I don't hardly ever run. Who are
we kidding here? But it camefrom the heart, right the Christmas list?
Is there an age limit to this? I mean, I don't disagree
with the theory, but it's niceknowing what people want if you're trying to
give them something. Otherwise it's ashot in the darken as to whether or
(04:54):
not they'll like it. And tome, if they're not gonna like it,
then I wasted my time in myresources. Not that I need a
list, but it'd be nice toknow what people are interested in in some
way. You can give me avague category and let me work my way
to it. But if you tellme like that specific one, that model,
that make and that color, I'mlike, go buy it for yourself,
(05:15):
shorty. I'm not wasting my time. I want to put my heart
into it, you know, so, so me asking for a car not
a good idea. Well for Christmas, for Secret Santa, that's a big
gift. Yeah, the commercials makeit look like people do that all the
time, with a big old bowon top. Yeah, what is that?
Alexis Alexus, the one with thebows on them. I'd rather pick
(05:39):
up my own car, though,you know what I mean. That's yeah,
I want to see it with myeyes. That's a big purchase.
I don't. Yeah, you're right, And the more I think about it,
the more I'm just kind of like, yeah, don't tell me what
to buy you. You tell yourmom, tell your dad, and tell
your auntie. I'm gonna buy youwhatever I want. You know what,
you look like you need dish towels. I'm gonna buy you dish towels,
right, And what are you gonnasay? I'm gonna buy you funny dishtowels
(06:00):
that have a picture of a foxcooking on them and use them, don't
use them. I stayed within mytwenty dollars budget, and you got a
funny gift that I thought you mightbe that might be useful or functional for
you. I think gifting now thegift card. If you don't know somebody,
well, the gift cards a greatgift, but otherwise the gift cards
(06:23):
a lazy gift. But I'm sayingthe gifting someone something really is your way
of saying I care about you andI know this about you. So if
you get out off of a list, that just it's just there's no meaning
behind it. Yeah, and there'sno meaning to just like having like it
handed over like that. It's justlike, oh, I can't wait till
somebody buys me this thing. Whatis this a wedding registry? Get out
(06:44):
of my face? Right? No, that's the other thing too. I
think though my friends get that aboutme. When for I think it was
for Christmas. Maybe for Christmas,one of our good friends here in Omaha
gave me coasters with pictures of uson it, four of us, like
like it's a couple and me andmy wife on a lot of these coasters,
like our friends on the coasters becausethey know me to be a big
(07:08):
coaster guy. And honestly, who'snot a coaster guy? Like why why
would you just like not use acoaster? Like who does that? I
personally don't own any coasters, butI'm not proud of any of my furnitures,
so you know, I don't owna coffee table either. So dude,
I'm telling you, anybody who doesn'tuse a coaster is like an anarchist
to me, Like it's really thathard. It's really that hard to just
(07:30):
like protect what you own, andhonestly, it esthetically is less pleasing to
see, just like a cup sittingon a wooden table with nothing underneath it.
It is a good look. No, I need the coaster. Yeah,
I'm saying the coaster is a goodlook. Yeah a great Yeah,
there you go.
Is this one of those things thatif you wanted to go to just like
a couple of them, could youresell the other ones? Or oh?
