Hello, Killy nash Yo. Tomorrow show Today, Tomorrow will be Friday.
Ready for the weekend? I know that.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Are you excited about the uh, it's supposed to beautiful weather.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Are you going anywhere this weekend?
Speaker 1 (00:15):
I believe that Saturday I am in the Upstate, but
I'm back in time for a tailgate party. Oh, Saturday night. Okay,
So I'll be on the interstates early in the morning
and then early in the afternoon. I'm assuming are you.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Going to the Upstate for the Lady Wilson corn Maze.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
I want to try to make it there. We're gonna
go visit some of Sally's family, so I'm not sure
I can carve out time for that, but I want to.
That'd be fun. That would be fun.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Well, and Clemson's on the road this weekend down to
Georgia Tech. I think that's like a three point thirty kick.
If I'm not mistaken, well, you may be. You're probably right.
I'm wast thinking noon for some reason. It might be noon.
I just remember thinking it's not a night game. I
thought three thirty on CBS. Possibly anyway, they got a
story here, Jonathan, you know Manatees. I saw a manatee.
(01:10):
I saw several manatees around the Tampa area several years ago,
and one of them actually came up. I was in
a kayak and this thing came up and was like
nudging my kayak with its big snout, and I petted it.
And then this was I guess now that I think
about it, as many years ago, we might have still
(01:31):
been on n okay when I did that.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
And then it was like three weeks later they arrested
a woman from Pittsburgh who petted a manatee. Oh yeah,
you know, like you can't touch the manatees, Michael, I
could have gone to jail for that.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Yes, they can touch you, which is what my defense
would be.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
But I never gave my permission. So now I want
that manatee.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
I thought he just wanted snacks, so I threw him
some and then I realized that's against the law.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Well, you know, when you think of a manatee, I mean,
I've never seen one outside of Florida.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
I haven't.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Well, they now have confirmed sightings in something called the
Shark River Inlet in Belmar, New Jersey. What this This
fella got lost? He messed around and got lost, and
it says. While manatees are usually only seen in warmer waters,
(02:31):
this one was spotted several times over the weekend. Several
videos were posted.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
He's directionally challenged.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Officials say that the manite appears healthy and doesn't need help,
maybe just needs a map, and they also point out
that there was one scene last July in Cape Cod
so maybe it's the same fella. He just keeps getting lost. Good,
he's in New Jersey. So what have you been like?
(02:58):
Have you ever seen something like where it's not supposed
to be Sometimes that happens with people. You s bump
into somebody and you're like, why are you here?
Speaker 1 (03:10):
But you're a drunk too? Why are you at the
AM meeting? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I didn't know you were a drunk.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
That was mean. I don't know why they came to mind.
I'm thinking about places. Some people may say that about
me when I'm at church.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
What's he doing?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I don't know? You're a Christian?
Speaker 2 (03:24):
What do you do? We're doing a radio? Yeah, what
are you doing here? You're radio PERSONA does not indicate that, well,
that's a that's an interesting story. You can read more
about on the Morning Rest Plug at ninety seven five
W c o s dot Com. Let's see what else
do we got going on today?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I read recently we have a crocodile.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
We have a not an alligator, a crocodile.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Sorry, we have an alligator. We have an alligator somewhere
in the Midlands. It's not a usual body of water
where you would find, but we have one there.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Then he wondered, somebody must have put him there, probably
unless he kind of just strolled up twenty six.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
They don't like to stroll too far. They don't.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, they don't have like the legs for it.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
No, that's a lot. It's kind of like taking June
on a walk. It's only around the block for me,
but for her it's like seven or eight miles exactly.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
You got five hundred steps in, she got like five
thousand exactly. So also, I don't know anybody who's done it.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
I mean sometimes.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Athletes will do this. They retire and then they regret
it and they try to come back.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Yes, Daniel day.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Lewis, the actor, is being grilled right now on the
promo tour for his new film. It's called I want
to say Animon or Animony something like that, And yesterday
he said, looking back on it. Now, I should have
said shut my mouth. It seemed like such great gibberish
(05:01):
at the time. I actually never really intended to retire.
I don't even know why I said it, but once
I said it, people were trying to hold me to it.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Don't hold me to my words.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Yeah, so he said, he actually did.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
He is a man allowed to change his mind around him.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
He did say he skipped several roles that he really
wanted to play because he had basically written a check
that his behind was cashing. You ever said something like
that where maybe not that I retire, but I'm not
going to do so, and so.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Oh that's good. I'm not going to do that again.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
I found myself walking back something I think I said,
probably not even a week ago, not even a week
previous to me actually walking it back. I had made
the bold claim that my disdain for the brand Nike
was so much that I would not support the I've
(05:59):
not warn them, nor would I support them moving forward. Well,
I'm not repeatedly I am not saying that I will
buy Nike year. I'm still pretty firm in my stance
that I'm anti Nike and I won't support them by
buying it. However, I was making those bold claims after
(06:20):
the fact that you know, game Cox announced they're going
with Nike, and I'm like, crap, I could support under Armour.
I can support Adidas even yeah, I could. You could
have gone to Rebock. I saw Adidas picked up who
they get they got?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
They got a big college. I want to say it
was like Notre Dame.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Oh really, yeah, they.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Got like a big college, like last weekend. Yeah, and
it appears that under Armour is out of the college
Athletics arena. Now that's why they wrapped it up with us.
We were one of like five colleges left. But anyway,
I forgot and then I saw in my closet. You know,
we get this Gamecock best Gamecock Coverage gear, and the
(07:05):
guy who was supposed to send it last year he
messed up and he had it printed on Nike shirts,
and so last year I just threw it in the back, back,
back of the closet. Yeah, and then I said, might
make for an interesting point. It might, So I put
it on last Saturday. I took a photo with the
(07:27):
Nike Swish and the Gamecock Coverage one three five w
it was like, wvoc has already got that early Nike swag,
getting ready for the big move. And you know some
people comment that as other people were like, I thought
you hated Nike. I mean I do, I do, but
I support the game.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I love for the Gamecock superseds my hate of Nike.
That's an admirable position.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
So I had to walk it back. Danielda Lewis had
to walk it back. Can you think of anything?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
You had to think of things that I have said
out loud.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Well, you've a lot.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I'm thinking about when I got called on it. Okay,
maybe you'll have thought. Let's talk about tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
What you're talking about tomorrow is the contest where we
give you great prizes. Tomorrow's prize is tickets before you
can buy them, because the tickets don't even go on
sale till next Friday morning. This is to see Cody
Johnson as he returns to the Colonial Life Arena Saturday,
February twenty eighth. The word of the day.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
And Peccanists and peccanis, Oh busted. But you've been like
caught broke, Yes, very fancy way of saying broke.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
It's penniless.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yes, penniless. Yes, is that the actual definition penniless?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yes, you don't even have one sentence your not one
cent do you have? So this isn't in peccanis pair
of tickets.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It doesn't cost you nothing, nothing, you get it free,
don't cost you. Don't confuse that with the value of
what we're giving. You know, we're talking about Cody Johnson
tickets for God's sake, and you won them before you
could buy them. Well you will tomorrow. I don't think it's.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Possible to scalp these, Is it because we send you
like a link or something. I don't have a scalpers. Yeah,
if you could scalp these digital tickets, things go for
a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Due do I get around the wall of scalping tickets
by also selling you a picture of a comb?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
I told you that story. That's how my uh we
got the Knicks playoffs tickets. It was back in like
nineteen I want to say ninety three, and a guy
from a record company was taking me to go see
the Nicks in the playoffs against Indiana that year, and
he didn't have tickets, and I was like, wait a minute.
We came all the way to Medicine Square Garden and
we don't have tickets, and he's like, oh, that's not
(09:43):
a problem, man, I just buy them off, you know
somebody here in front and some guy was like, you know,
it's always interesting to me that they're acting like they
want to buy tickets. Yeah, that's their way of telling
you that they're selling tickets.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, that's a it's a very bizarre.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
I don't know how that tradition started, but it's been Yeah.
And so my friend Pete said, uh, yeah, you got two,
you got two good ones. And the guy was like,
I got I got.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Two on the floor.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
And he said two on the floor, that's what we want.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
And I don't remember the price.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
I'm sure it was exorbitant, you know, maybe not by
today's standards, but like a thousand dollars for two tickets
or something like that. And back in those days you
had to have cash, which Pete did, sure so, and
this guy's not giving you a receipt. But when Pete said,
Pete said, do you have two on the floor, that's
what he said, do you have two on the floor.
(10:37):
And the guy says, well, I don't sell tickets, I
sell art, and my art comes with a thank you gift,
which happens to be two tickets on the floor. But
my and he pulled out like a drawing literally of
like a stick figure. Yes, and you just made it,
you know, over the course of about one and a
half seconds. This is one thousand dollars. Yeah, I throw
(11:01):
in the tickets. I said, thank you. So we bought
the thousand dollars stick figure art and then I got
the two pretty sweet seats for the Knicks playoff game.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I remember watching the guy at the Carolina Colisseum before
the Colonial Life arena at the Carolina Colisseum. I forgot
what show it was, but he had about ten combs
in his pocket. He would sell you the comb and
then you get the as a bonus. He's throwing in
a couple of tickets. Yep, but very expensive, I asked him.
I remember it because I didn't buy it from him.
(11:32):
I just saw him doing it. And I'm watching the
transaction go now and he's got to sign up. You know,
it's like tickets. I saw it. Says his tickets, and
say he's going to sell them. I say, he's buying
them nothing, He's just I said, why don't you just
have a stick with a giant comb on it.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I got the hottest combs in town.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Brother.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I remember we got in troubled years ago for giving
away bookmarks. Guard it in black. Bookmarks got us in trouble.
Legal team had to get involved with that one. That
was an ugly mess. So be careful with your tickets
or your combs or whatever else you're dealing with. Johnny,
we've got a lady.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I remember exactly where I was when I got that
phone call on a Thursday afternoon at about three o'clock.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Well, that was the one thing we couldn't give away,
the tickets, that's right. It was Friday that we got
the phone call that we had messed up.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah, they didn't think that was because we had.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
The promo on the air saying I was giving away
my two personal tickets to see Florida play South Carolina.
For whatever reason, couldn't go to the game that weekend.
I don't want to see him go to waste. Love
to give him to a game Cock fan. Not gonna
sell them, just gonna have you be caller ten tomorrow
morning at seven thirty or something like that. And then
we get the phone call from I can't remember who
(12:49):
the PD or the GM was at the time, but
them and some lawyers and the other guy LJ at
the time, it was like a.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Whole squad of them, and they're saying they were none
too happy.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
You guys have a promo on the air that says
you're giving away game Cock tickets. I was like, yes,
we are, and they're well, you can't do that. The
university's upset and the radio partners are upset. And it
says expressly on the tickets that you don't own tickets,
even if you buy the tickets, they're not yours, that
(13:21):
the university has the right to call them back at
any time yep. And we were like, well, I don't
know what to do. I'll tell you what you're not
going to do is give those tickets away.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
You're gonna go on the air. You're gonna apologize and
say we lied in our promo.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Which takes us to directly to a problem with the
Federal Communications Commission.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Well, and so we said that we lied, We're wrong,
we don't we can't give them away. However, I know
a lot of you are here listening because you wanted
to win those Gamecock football tickets. Which again we cannot
give them away, but thankfully, I mean, I don't know
if it's the equal value, it's pretty valuable. These are beautiful. Well,
I know you love the color garnet, you love the
color black, and we upen to have two garnet and
(14:04):
black bookmarks right here that we would love to give you.
I think they each have a value of like sixty.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Dollars featured a very famous player.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Might have I can't recall at the time, but they were,
you know, sixty dollars bookmarks per bookmark, according to the
face value of these bookmarks, and so we gave those away.
Not giving away football tickets, were given away bookmarks, and
boy did we You would have thought we'd be you know.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
They didn't think that was funny.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
We didn't rob a bank or anything.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
You got to be clear. We let the university. The
university let us run the promotional announcement promoting their football
game all week until Thursday afternoon about three o'clock.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Well, to be fair, I think we didn't. It was
our morning show promo. I think we just did it
that day.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Beginning. Nonetheless, yeah, the Florida nobody in the university ever
complained for the decades that The Morning Rush gave away
soccer tickets points before soccer was you'll still do that,
Baseball tickets probably be able to do that again this year,
and tickets.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
We have a questrian tickets.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I think I've given it. I know I've given away
a questrian ticket.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
I just saw the we Western team got those rings
that they posted yesterday. Unbelievable. They're like bigger than anything
Lebron James has ever won.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
It's the size of a horseshoe. It's crazy, and they
were cool with all that. I tell you what really
frosted them, I think is when I made a reference
to Clemson one of the enough we could give away
some of their tickets by tell them promotionally. We were
already booked the legal department. That's lost it since the
humor over there at the Athletic department at the University
(15:43):
of South Carolina, so we don't. You know, you can't
even use that color garnet without getting some kind of permission.
They all even sailed that color garnet.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
If I'm not mistaken, South Carolina State has to get
permission just to say that our colors are garnet and blue.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Brought they own the collar.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Wait, manute, aren't you guys garnering blue?
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I don't know, are we.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Let's ask the university.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I saw a guy at one of the gay pride parades.
I thought he was going to get arrested because inside
that rainbow there was a go. I'm sure that was
game caught Garnet. I thought he was going to get
snatched off the street.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
He right, this is not Garnet. It's maroon.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Anyway, tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
The other thing that we got on the morning rust
agenda is all right, So she's been dating a guy
pretty seriously now who is divorced and has two children. Well,
as things have gotten serious, she has obviously gotten to
know the two kids a little bit, and they spent
time together on the weekends or whatever when dad has
(16:43):
them for the weekend. And so now the interesting dilemma
that has been created is that the ex wife slash
mother of these two children has requested her as a whatever, friend,
follower or whatever on social media. Okay, do I accept this.
I don't even know this woman. I've never met her.
(17:03):
I understand that she would probably like to know more
about me if I'm spending any time with your kids,
But I mean, does she get to do When we
put it in another way, I know a lot of
people who have school age children who the person who
spends the most time with them outside of you is
their school teacher. And yet your school teacher does not
accept you as a friend on Facebook because they don't
(17:26):
want you in their personal business. Is it incumbent upon
her though, because she is possibly going to marry this
man in the not too distant future and is spending
a lot of time with the children, I have to
now be friends with the ex wife slash mother on
Facebook or whatever.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Oh this is good and sticky. Oh I can Maybe
you've been in this situation before, maybe it was in
the exact situation, but it was real close. Oh this
is good. I want to talk about this tomorrow. Okay, now,
(18:08):
as we get ready for the weekend. What you got
going on, what's happening over there, what you got playing,
what's gonna be going what's happening at your neighbor's house?
And by the way, I think we should come up
with a HOA rule. I don't live in an HOA community,
thank god. But the problem with watching football games where
I'm going to be Saturday night and I'm pretty sure
(18:28):
I know which house I'm going to be at. I
don't know. I just I just get in the car
and Sally drives me there. It's kind of like having
to show for living. I don't even know my schedule.
I just know when I'm gonna be ready. Is that
you'll have a neighborhood football watching party. And the guy
four houses now that's got a big party going on.
He's watching on a different platform. Well, he ruins the
(18:51):
game for you because you can hear them cheering while
the play is yet to be snapped over here.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
It's like people outside the stadium tail getting and I
never get that. Like you're watching the game. You can
hear the crowd. Yeah, the crowd is five seconds before
it happens. The crowd is saying, oh, and they're lining
up for the fifty two yard field goal. I guess
he ain't gonna make it, right.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
We got like five platforms going on. You can hear
like the echoes of cheers and layed over there, advanced
over there. Where am I'm in the middle? Okay, good, Hey,
what's got what's happening? You know how to reach out
to us on social media? You can also email us
I Rush at ninety seven five, w COS dot com.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Nation ninety seven five WS dot com.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
And tomorrow the number you'll need to call them Win
is the same. To me called the chit chat at
satoh three ninety seven eight, w COS nine seven eight

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Then he wondered, somebody must have put him there, probably
unless he kind of just strolled up twenty six.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
They don't like to stroll too far. They don't.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, they don't have like the legs for it.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
No, that's a lot. It's kind of like taking June
on a walk. It's only around the block for me,
but for her it's like seven or eight miles exactly.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
You got five hundred steps in, she got like five
thousand exactly. So also, I don't know anybody who's done it.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
I mean sometimes.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Athletes will do this. They retire and then they regret
it and they try to come back.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Yes, Daniel day.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Lewis, the actor, is being grilled right now on the
promo tour for his new film. It's called I want
to say Animon or Animony something like that, And yesterday
he said, looking back on it. Now, I should have
said shut my mouth. It seemed like such great gibberish
(05:01):
at the time. I actually never really intended to retire.
I don't even know why I said it, but once
I said it, people were trying to hold me to it.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Don't hold me to my words.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Yeah, so he said, he actually did.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
He is a man allowed to change his mind around him.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
He did say he skipped several roles that he really
wanted to play because he had basically written a check
that his behind was cashing. You ever said something like
that where maybe not that I retire, but I'm not
going to do so, and so.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Oh that's good. I'm not going to do that again.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
I found myself walking back something I think I said,
probably not even a week ago, not even a week
previous to me actually walking it back. I had made
the bold claim that my disdain for the brand Nike
was so much that I would not support the I've
(05:59):
not warn them, nor would I support them moving forward. Well,
I'm not repeatedly I am not saying that I will
buy Nike year. I'm still pretty firm in my stance
that I'm anti Nike and I won't support them by
buying it. However, I was making those bold claims after
(06:20):
the fact that you know, game Cox announced they're going
with Nike, and I'm like, crap, I could support under Armour.
I can support Adidas even yeah, I could. You could
have gone to Rebock. I saw Adidas picked up who
they get they got?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
They got a big college. I want to say it
was like Notre Dame.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Oh really, yeah, they.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Got like a big college, like last weekend. Yeah, and
it appears that under Armour is out of the college
Athletics arena. Now that's why they wrapped it up with us.
We were one of like five colleges left. But anyway,
I forgot and then I saw in my closet. You know,
we get this Gamecock best Gamecock Coverage gear, and the
(07:05):
guy who was supposed to send it last year he
messed up and he had it printed on Nike shirts,
and so last year I just threw it in the back, back,
back of the closet. Yeah, and then I said, might
make for an interesting point. It might, So I put
it on last Saturday. I took a photo with the
(07:27):
Nike Swish and the Gamecock Coverage one three five w
it was like, wvoc has already got that early Nike swag,
getting ready for the big move. And you know some
people comment that as other people were like, I thought
you hated Nike. I mean I do, I do, but
I support the game.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I love for the Gamecock superseds my hate of Nike.
That's an admirable position.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
So I had to walk it back. Danielda Lewis had
to walk it back. Can you think of anything?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
You had to think of things that I have said
out loud.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Well, you've a lot.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I'm thinking about when I got called on it. Okay,
maybe you'll have thought. Let's talk about tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
What you're talking about tomorrow is the contest where we
give you great prizes. Tomorrow's prize is tickets before you
can buy them, because the tickets don't even go on
sale till next Friday morning. This is to see Cody
Johnson as he returns to the Colonial Life Arena Saturday,
February twenty eighth. The word of the day.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
And Peccanists and peccanis, Oh busted. But you've been like
caught broke, Yes, very fancy way of saying broke.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
It's penniless.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yes, penniless. Yes, is that the actual definition penniless?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yes, you don't even have one sentence your not one
cent do you have? So this isn't in peccanis pair
of tickets.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It doesn't cost you nothing, nothing, you get it free,
don't cost you. Don't confuse that with the value of
what we're giving. You know, we're talking about Cody Johnson
tickets for God's sake, and you won them before you
could buy them. Well you will tomorrow. I don't think it's.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Possible to scalp these, Is it because we send you
like a link or something. I don't have a scalpers. Yeah,
if you could scalp these digital tickets, things go for
a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Due do I get around the wall of scalping tickets
by also selling you a picture of a comb?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
I told you that story. That's how my uh we
got the Knicks playoffs tickets. It was back in like
nineteen I want to say ninety three, and a guy
from a record company was taking me to go see
the Nicks in the playoffs against Indiana that year, and
he didn't have tickets, and I was like, wait a minute.
We came all the way to Medicine Square Garden and
we don't have tickets, and he's like, oh, that's not
(09:43):
a problem, man, I just buy them off, you know
somebody here in front and some guy was like, you know,
it's always interesting to me that they're acting like they
want to buy tickets. Yeah, that's their way of telling
you that they're selling tickets.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, that's a it's a very bizarre.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
I don't know how that tradition started, but it's been Yeah.
And so my friend Pete said, uh, yeah, you got two,
you got two good ones. And the guy was like,
I got I got.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Two on the floor.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
And he said two on the floor, that's what we want.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
And I don't remember the price.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
I'm sure it was exorbitant, you know, maybe not by
today's standards, but like a thousand dollars for two tickets
or something like that. And back in those days you
had to have cash, which Pete did, sure so, and
this guy's not giving you a receipt. But when Pete said,
Pete said, do you have two on the floor, that's
what he said, do you have two on the floor.
(10:37):
And the guy says, well, I don't sell tickets, I
sell art, and my art comes with a thank you gift,
which happens to be two tickets on the floor. But
my and he pulled out like a drawing literally of
like a stick figure. Yes, and you just made it,
you know, over the course of about one and a
half seconds. This is one thousand dollars. Yeah, I throw
(11:01):
in the tickets. I said, thank you. So we bought
the thousand dollars stick figure art and then I got
the two pretty sweet seats for the Knicks playoff game.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I remember watching the guy at the Carolina Colisseum before
the Colonial Life arena at the Carolina Colisseum. I forgot
what show it was, but he had about ten combs
in his pocket. He would sell you the comb and
then you get the as a bonus. He's throwing in
a couple of tickets. Yep, but very expensive, I asked him.
I remember it because I didn't buy it from him.
(11:32):
I just saw him doing it. And I'm watching the
transaction go now and he's got to sign up. You know,
it's like tickets. I saw it. Says his tickets, and
say he's going to sell them. I say, he's buying
them nothing, He's just I said, why don't you just
have a stick with a giant comb on it.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I got the hottest combs in town.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Brother.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I remember we got in troubled years ago for giving
away bookmarks. Guard it in black. Bookmarks got us in trouble.
Legal team had to get involved with that one. That
was an ugly mess. So be careful with your tickets
or your combs or whatever else you're dealing with. Johnny,
we've got a lady.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I remember exactly where I was when I got that
phone call on a Thursday afternoon at about three o'clock.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Well, that was the one thing we couldn't give away,
the tickets, that's right. It was Friday that we got
the phone call that we had messed up.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah, they didn't think that was because we had.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
The promo on the air saying I was giving away
my two personal tickets to see Florida play South Carolina.
For whatever reason, couldn't go to the game that weekend.
I don't want to see him go to waste. Love
to give him to a game Cock fan. Not gonna
sell them, just gonna have you be caller ten tomorrow
morning at seven thirty or something like that. And then
we get the phone call from I can't remember who
(12:49):
the PD or the GM was at the time, but
them and some lawyers and the other guy LJ at
the time, it was like a.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Whole squad of them, and they're saying they were none
too happy.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
You guys have a promo on the air that says
you're giving away game Cock tickets. I was like, yes,
we are, and they're well, you can't do that. The
university's upset and the radio partners are upset. And it
says expressly on the tickets that you don't own tickets,
even if you buy the tickets, they're not yours, that
(13:21):
the university has the right to call them back at
any time yep. And we were like, well, I don't
know what to do. I'll tell you what you're not
going to do is give those tickets away.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
You're gonna go on the air. You're gonna apologize and
say we lied in our promo.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Which takes us to directly to a problem with the
Federal Communications Commission.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Well, and so we said that we lied, We're wrong,
we don't we can't give them away. However, I know
a lot of you are here listening because you wanted
to win those Gamecock football tickets. Which again we cannot
give them away, but thankfully, I mean, I don't know
if it's the equal value, it's pretty valuable. These are beautiful. Well,
I know you love the color garnet, you love the
color black, and we upen to have two garnet and
(14:04):
black bookmarks right here that we would love to give you.
I think they each have a value of like sixty.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Dollars featured a very famous player.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Might have I can't recall at the time, but they were,
you know, sixty dollars bookmarks per bookmark, according to the
face value of these bookmarks, and so we gave those away.
Not giving away football tickets, were given away bookmarks, and
boy did we You would have thought we'd be you know.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
They didn't think that was funny.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
We didn't rob a bank or anything.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
You got to be clear. We let the university. The
university let us run the promotional announcement promoting their football
game all week until Thursday afternoon about three o'clock.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Well, to be fair, I think we didn't. It was
our morning show promo. I think we just did it
that day.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Beginning. Nonetheless, yeah, the Florida nobody in the university ever
complained for the decades that The Morning Rush gave away
soccer tickets points before soccer was you'll still do that,
Baseball tickets probably be able to do that again this year,
and tickets.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
We have a questrian tickets.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I think I've given it. I know I've given away
a questrian ticket.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
I just saw the we Western team got those rings
that they posted yesterday. Unbelievable. They're like bigger than anything
Lebron James has ever won.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
It's the size of a horseshoe. It's crazy, and they
were cool with all that. I tell you what really
frosted them, I think is when I made a reference
to Clemson one of the enough we could give away
some of their tickets by tell them promotionally. We were
already booked the legal department. That's lost it since the
humor over there at the Athletic department at the University
(15:43):
of South Carolina, so we don't. You know, you can't
even use that color garnet without getting some kind of permission.
They all even sailed that color garnet.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
If I'm not mistaken, South Carolina State has to get
permission just to say that our colors are garnet and blue.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Brought they own the collar.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Wait, manute, aren't you guys garnering blue?
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I don't know, are we.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Let's ask the university.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I saw a guy at one of the gay pride parades.
I thought he was going to get arrested because inside
that rainbow there was a go. I'm sure that was
game caught Garnet. I thought he was going to get
snatched off the street.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
He right, this is not Garnet. It's maroon.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Anyway, tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
The other thing that we got on the morning rust
agenda is all right, So she's been dating a guy
pretty seriously now who is divorced and has two children. Well,
as things have gotten serious, she has obviously gotten to
know the two kids a little bit, and they spent
time together on the weekends or whatever when dad has
(16:43):
them for the weekend. And so now the interesting dilemma
that has been created is that the ex wife slash
mother of these two children has requested her as a whatever, friend,
follower or whatever on social media. Okay, do I accept this.
I don't even know this woman. I've never met her.
(17:03):
I understand that she would probably like to know more
about me if I'm spending any time with your kids,
But I mean, does she get to do When we
put it in another way, I know a lot of
people who have school age children who the person who
spends the most time with them outside of you is
their school teacher. And yet your school teacher does not
accept you as a friend on Facebook because they don't
(17:26):
want you in their personal business. Is it incumbent upon
her though, because she is possibly going to marry this
man in the not too distant future and is spending
a lot of time with the children, I have to
now be friends with the ex wife slash mother on
Facebook or whatever.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Oh this is good and sticky. Oh I can Maybe
you've been in this situation before, maybe it was in
the exact situation, but it was real close. Oh this
is good. I want to talk about this tomorrow. Okay, now,
(18:08):
as we get ready for the weekend. What you got
going on, what's happening over there, what you got playing,
what's gonna be going what's happening at your neighbor's house?
And by the way, I think we should come up
with a HOA rule. I don't live in an HOA community,
thank god. But the problem with watching football games where
I'm going to be Saturday night and I'm pretty sure
(18:28):
I know which house I'm going to be at. I
don't know. I just I just get in the car
and Sally drives me there. It's kind of like having
to show for living. I don't even know my schedule.
I just know when I'm gonna be ready. Is that
you'll have a neighborhood football watching party. And the guy
four houses now that's got a big party going on.
He's watching on a different platform. Well, he ruins the
(18:51):
game for you because you can hear them cheering while
the play is yet to be snapped over here.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
It's like people outside the stadium tail getting and I
never get that. Like you're watching the game. You can
hear the crowd. Yeah, the crowd is five seconds before
it happens. The crowd is saying, oh, and they're lining
up for the fifty two yard field goal. I guess
he ain't gonna make it, right.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
We got like five platforms going on. You can hear
like the echoes of cheers and layed over there, advanced
over there. Where am I'm in the middle? Okay, good, Hey,
what's got what's happening? You know how to reach out
to us on social media? You can also email us
I Rush at ninety seven five, w COS dot com.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Nation ninety seven five WS dot com.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
And tomorrow the number you'll need to call them Win
is the same. To me called the chit chat at
satoh three ninety seven eight, w COS nine seven eight
