Do you remember when the Super Bowl happened a few weeks ago? Remember the Rejected Yankee Stadium Memories series we did a few months ago? Remember when I said we would update the site on a regular basis? Me neither.
You tube is full of 100% real videos that show someone getting a fake lottery card as a christmas/hanukkah/birthday present…
Generally the story goes like this - some goofy guy or girl explains to the camera that he/she bought their family member/good friend a fake lottery card as a gift. Cut to the family member/friend scratching the lottery card, explaining out loud that they’ve won some large amount of money and then flipping the fuck out. They hop around the room, scream at the top of their lungs and hug everyone in sight. When they discover the lottery card is fake one of two things happen - 1) the person laughs good naturedly and all ends well. 2) the person is embarrassed and chases the gift giver around the room - good naturedly - but, ultimately, all ends well.
You ever see those AT&T commercials where there’s two versions of the same person on screen at the same time - the current real-life version and the voice-mail version?
Well, here’s our take on that idea - with a very dark twist at the end. Enjoy!
So we finally have a blog on gregandlou.com! Whoop-dee-damn-do!
I guess we’ll use this thing to update stuff that we’re working on and maybe share some things we find funny. Or maybe we’ll never post on here again. Who knows?
In case you guys haven’t seen these yet, here’s a new web series we just finished - it’s called Rejected Yankee Stadium Memories. I came up with the idea after I saw a bunch of short videos on the YES network (the New York Yankees official tv station) that showed a bunch of various Yankee players/coaches/celebrity fans talking poetically about amazing moments at the soon-to-close Yankee Stadium. And I thought, well, you know what, alot of stupid shit happens at Yankee Stadium, too. So, for every dramatic Aaron Boone homerun or historic David Cone perfect game, hundreds of other Yankee fans have much less honorable, orchestra-worthy ‘memorable moments’ from the Stadium.
