Although we run a nearly company wide march one....has high level people in it. Only $5 per bracket, but it has had as many as 830 brackets. Only pays out top 6. From 2011-2014 I finished 7th. In these circles, they call me the Bridesmaid.

The advent of social media and internet gaming has killed the interoffice pools. We still run them but they are smaller and quieter.

100 squares sold out in less than four hours sir. Didn't even have a chance to post here.

I'm too disinterested to look it up but I wonder if she asked him for a prenup. She's worth way more than him, or at least was when they got married.

People get fooled by overvaluing trigger speed without taking into account a cam's sensing width or zone. Similarly, priced right on a cell cam doesn't mean a hill of beans if the data behind it is more expensive than the competition. Moultrie plans start out at $10 for a very small amount of photos. Most people end up paying $15-20. Higher end cams run $5-10 per month and send video.

In St. Pete area: Go to the Hurricane grill/restaurant in Pass-a-Grille for the sunset at the rooftop bar. Really nice. There are a few really nice food places on the main drag (Gulf Blvd) going down through Indian Rocks, Redington Beach, etc. There's actually three really nice options. People are very loyal to which one they go to...Salt Rock Grill. I like Conch Republic. I forget the third...maybe called Aqua or something along those lines. A good Italian restaurant is called Bellissimo. It's on S. Belcher. It's not a fancy, nor low-brow. A genuine good original Italian food experience.

Cheddars is real good and priced very well for what you get. The painkiller is a drink created on Jost Van Dyke in the BVIs. Here is the origin story location: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'll one up you. Our French doors lead directly outside. Last night going to bed - wife : The French doors in the back living room won't lock. Me: Are you sure you were able to shut it fine? Wife: Yes, but it won't lock. I locked it with the door open, but when shut it won't lock. Me: Usually that means something is jamming the mechanism or the door/track is jammed up with something. Wife: I dunno. It shut fine. Me: Ok, as long as you are sure. Me at 5:25 AM this morning when I go to start the coffee: What the F@ck. Door's wide open. Ice jammed in preventing door from actually shutting.

Yep...could be an undermatched heat source.

This group is A+ at taking threads into the tank. Well done! Lunch = swinging

That lack of a call for the Saints was the difference between three kneel downs and a kick, and the loss. I am a big fan of single plays not deciding the game - there is always something you could have done better or different, but that was egregious and on the second largest stage you can get for a football game. The throw was because that first down effectively ended the game upon the FG (which itself isn't guaranteed).

Have you seen her Vegas vid on the Bellagio fountain steps? Unreal.

I have a 6AM flight out Sunday morning. Awesome. I am sure it'll dump on us.

Too much R&D. Cuddeback spent more than $1M on it.

You picked them up, alright, lol. Amazing how the photo gets round the 'nets...

I'm really looking forward to a KC/NO game. That game is very interesting to me and could be a crazy 45-44 type game. I really like Mahommes, but I also think Brees is a great human being. I'd enjoy seeing him win and walk off into the sunset. Oddly enough Buffalo screwed the pooch with both of those QBs.

I will post details on the squares after next Sunday. Probably will end up being $10 a square. last year was $5 and it sold out in about three-four hours and I had to do more squares. This year, I want to do only one 100-board because of the time commitment. It's way more work compared to the other offerings I run.

Exactly - he just said that #. I suspect that it is much higher in all reality - he wouldn't and couldn't spend those fees if he didn't have the money to do so. I think that alone is strong evidence that he made a lot more than what he's said he's made publicly. That's a smoke/fire scenario.

It's not a full-time job - most of it is passive income via replicas and licensing. Only real "efforts" are appearance fees. And that income is supplemental. It is as Gman said like winning the lottery. People can downplay the money, people can downplay what they would do - doesn't change the fact that one can monetize a world record - making life-altering money for something that one pays to pursue as a hobby. The guy shot one deer, one time, and made $1.5M off of it.

The overwhelming majority of cover bucks (as they are called) are from fenced operations. I'd estimate 4/5 glossy covers are from a buck behind a fence. A cover buck photo is worth $250-600 based on publication. That price is dropping though with changing mediums.

Infalt is selling his own branded climbing sticks right now for $80 for one stick - most people buy 4-5 of them for a set. And his entire shipments have sold out in hours. He has a group of business partners that are monetizing his fame/strategy now. Before he didn't have the "team" I guess you could say, to make it happen. Plus his new DVDs and clothing line, etc. Andrae D'Acquisto whom Dan is often tied to, has monetized significantly and now lives on a square mile in Iowa - and is again monetizing with new saddles, stands, sticks, cameras, and arrow equipment at this year's ATA. Infalt's not getting rich earlier in life is more on him and not the opportunity he had in front of him. He also needs to maintain his working man image most likely, regardless of income level, to connect w/his core. Infalt is well on his way to cashing in. The Hansen buck was estimated to have been worth $1 million dollars in 1995 - and that record is now 25-26 years old. The only published statement by Hansen is he made $600,000 off of the buck in 10 years - he's most certainly made more than $1M off of that buck as that statement was made in 2008. Using fuzzy math - he's made at least $1.56M ($60k x26) on that buck to date.

I will be doing another super bowl square sheet for trail cams this year. It was really popular.

I highly doubt you go reclusive. You're smart enough to cash in. Not cashing in is doing your kids a disfavor. You have to expect he's going to make six figures this year and probably will gross seven overall if the record stands for 10-20 years.

A-freaking-men. People always looking for the negative. Guy is former military, hunted a buddy's farm who knew about the deer and had been after it, and he shot it on the first night. The DNR confirmed it's legit I believe, too. NAW is all over it with exclusivity. Can we just celebrate a new record accomplishment?
