I think it was a few weeks ago when I posted a picture of me with the Michigan Warriors’ mascot Skully. They were the local hockey team that was made up primarily of college guys.  That team lasted a couple seasons.

Afterwards, they were replaced by the Flint Firebirds.  This year they celebrate their 10th year as a team.  They’ve done quite well in the OHL. 

It’s been a few years since I’ve been to a game, and I plan on making at least one this season.  Their mascot is Hot Wing.

A few years ago, one of our local TV stations held a huge free family fun day.  It was held at the arena where the Firebirds play.  I DJ’d at every one of these events.  They’d have me in the middle of the arena in front of a dance floor.

There would be booths and vendors lined up on both sides of me. I would play music, make announcements, and do giveaways.  I always had a blast doing that gig.

I found this crazy picture of me with Hot Wing at one of the last (if not THE last) one of those family festivals. 

The station decided to stop doing this one big event and focus on many small events, which made planning a lot easier for them.   I really miss doing this gig.
