Battle of the Sexes
March 22nd was an important date for men the world over. Jason Rhodes (of Rhodes Industries, a Flipco Corporation) and myself took the field to battle for sexual supremacy against Mandy and Audra Mullen of the late 70’s “Folk Explosion” singing Mullenses. The weapons of choice? Rackets and fuzzy yellow balls. Not since Bobby Riggs challenged Billie Jean King in the early 70’s has a match been met with such enthusiasm. Finding the Astrodome had been demolished, we decided to battle it out at Hammond Park.
Prior to the match, our confidence ran high, and i even took time to do an ad shoot. Normally i don’t shill products, but when the people from Aquafina approached me, i decided they were the kind of product that fit with my personal brand image
Once the match got going, though, it was all business. Here i wait at the net, cringing in anticipation of Jason whizzing a serve either right past, or into, my head.
The match ended in a victory for team Alpha Male, but we were gracious enough to take a few photos with the team that didn’t win (notice the omission of the word loser – we’re all winners here).
Later the girls treated us to free beer – a manly celebration indeed : )
