One of my favorite ad campaigns in the last decade or two had to be the "Real Men of Genius" ads from Bud Light... you remember, rousing ballads about stuff like the guy who invented a cooler on wheels, and others. Well, To bring things into modern times and give the ads a fresh coat of paint, they've released 7 new ads on their Youtube Channel about "Internet Heroes of Genius", and some of them are pretty dang funny. Just like the originals, you have the 'Big Voice' narrator telling you about the 'Hero', but the highlights to me have always been the raspy voiced singer that highlights the often overlooked, but obvious absurdity of said 'heroes'.

A couple cool things happening in NEO for football fans - one you can check out now, the other in 2021
First, If you remember (I know we all try to forget) when Cleveland was not doing so well in the world of Professional Football... so there were special edition"Fridges" installed in area bars that would 'Unlock' after the first Victory of the season so patrons could toast with a free adult beverage. One of these exclusive refrigerators has been donated to the Pro Football Hall of Fame by the folks at Loby's Grille in Canton and will be on dispaly for the world to see at the Hall.

So the other thing is kind of a big deal... if you saw any footage, pics or social media posts about this years NFL Draft that was held in Nashville, TN, andthought it looked like a good time but think 8 hours is a long drive for a party, then you are in luck. The NFL has announced that the 2021 NFL Draft will be held in CLEVELAND! The 75th Anniversary of our North Coast team in Orange happens to be the same year, and if things continue to improve on the shore of Lake Erie, this could, and should be, one of the biggest things to happen in Cleveland since that little Championship parade for the Wine & Gold.

Congrats, CLE!
