Make Me Do Stuff In Green Bay

I must say I am shocked by the outpouring of support that showed up to fund my trip to Green Bay this weekend. In total, I raised $434.24 in donations. That is your money folks.

That said, it is up to you donors to decide my itinerary, what you would like to see me do, and generally push me around for the weekend. In return I will keep you posted on Twitter, post everything I have, and put together a full video when I get back, making sure and crediting all those who helped out.

This in mind, I invite you to decide my every move. Now, let me first say I will not do anything illegal, immoral, or downright stupid, so don't ask me to slam a bottle of 151 and run around naked screaming, "Favre sucks." However I am open to suggestions and willing to try or see just about anything (although I will not eat gross rotten food or any more dryer sheets). There are great restaurants, sites, people, and tons of other things we can accomplish. The weekend is yours.

Also, this is not about me eating steak and lobster all weekend, so let's keep it reasonable, local, and nothing too extravagant. I'm here to relax, but also to work bringing my experiences to the twitter table. So please, let's use good judgement.

This is what I have, feel free to add details in the comment section, and I will update and fill up slots as they come in. Also, feel free to Tweet me in Green Bay and send me around in real-time.

This Will Never Work

When a drunk Billy Cozad offered to start a small fund to get me to the Green Bay Packers shareholders meeting, I was half kidding with my enthusiasm. Then I thought, why the hell wouldn't people want me at Lambeau. I'm nice, polite, courteous, don't take offense to much, and am generally and all around great guy, so what the heck.

Let's see if this works.

All donators will receive a huge hug and kiss, and be safe from Twitter attacks for ten days.

I will also offer to mow your lawn, do some chores, or utilize my media skills at no cost.

Five Friday lawn mowings available:

I also plan to film, edit, and produce a video of the weekend.
