My dinner with Ben Mintz was…..without question….one of the wildest experiences I’ve ever encountered.
Anyways, and this won’t be the last time this happens in this blog, the plans changed.
I said, buddy, just say you got a poker tournament and skip it, but he declined.
He said his priorities go Dozen, Poker, Getting The Half Off Pizza Deals, then Barstool.
Looked down at my phone and saw one eye staring back into mine….it was Ben Mintz.
Do you mind?"
Oh, yeah, it’s not 50% off pizzas like he said.
It’s buy one, get one free.
Not a huge deal, obviously, but the two of us will now be splitting two larges.
….the food came out in 5 minutes.
At 6:03, the food was delivered to the table.
These motherfuckers got me.
Katz had to have been behind it.
Let me say this: I really enjoyed the dinner.
Anyways, I wanted to reiterate, dinner was fun.
Funny to hear that from him, but I do agree with his reasoning.
I had to give up coaching TO work at Barstool.
), but what if we amended the rules a bit?
That is hard, but that is absolutely doable.
A Staring Contest Vs. Riggs
“Huh?
Oh wait, I get it, because he’s cross-eyed.”
He did say it’d probably be pretty funny, though.
Are You Smarter Than Tate’s 7th Grader?
This one has some legs, no?
He answered with an emphatic YES.
I was like, oh, you like that idea?
He goes, what idea?
And then the odds for the bets on NO shifted drastically to -650.
But if they were about “common sense”, he wasn’t sure.
Commit-Mintz
Also not a bad idea, if we’re talking about the practicality of these options.
JudgeMintz
Alright, here’s my #2 option of the entire pitch list.
Anytime a company employee fucks up, they need to go sit before the honorable Judge Mintz.
Do you guys get it?
Judge Mintz…..makes judgements….on what should happen to Barstool employees that fuck up.
I hope you guys are still reading because that’s actually a fucking good idea.
No shit, Mintzy.
I didn’t come up with this idea out of the blue.
(Everyone take a deep breath for second)
Okay, lock the fuck in.
Each week, I teach one lesson, and then he takes one test.
I can already see it now.
This is going to be tough!".
And then can you imagine when he finally gets into the later grades….?
How long will it take Ben Mintz to pass an 11th Grade AP Literature exam?
And then he has to move on to Calculus!
You know what, I may go see if Hank thinks this idea is funny today.
Oh, and he did that on his very first bite.
Guys, look at Mintzy’s twitter bio.
it’s possible for you to’t make this shit up.
it’s possible for you to’t make any of this shit up.
Okay, that’s my recap blog of my dinner date with Ben Mintz.
