I understand and appreciate the anonymous label....after all....Most celebrities cannot stand "yahoos" any way.....
Yahoo:def: "Someone that tries to give verbal "BJ's" to someone who is already famous...tells the celeb what they've accomplished when the already know what they have accomplished...someone who tries to associate with the celeb..by saying..."Hey I saw you play when you played at Miami!"....Or "I played golf with your wife's sister's husband's friend and his brother-in-law"...Tries to befriend the celeb because of their connection or networking opportunities.....etc.....
Warren Sapp explained to this to me over some "bones and "Q" one evening in Tampa...He told me this great advice....Don't ever be a "yahoo" ...famous people don't like them....Just be quiet, genuine, and authentic....let them warm up to you...because they always think someone wants somethin from them.....
On another level.....I'm working with a celeb and have for the past 14 years and she kicked some "arse" last night...breaking some glass on the old Big Break V.....
I've worked with a few "celebs" throughout the years(when I was the Head Instructor at Pine Needles) and most of them like it straight up.....
One time I played a prank call on my father-in-law...I said I just got done giving a lesson to a guy named "John Bench"...My father-in-law said "Johnny Bench? The Hall of Fame Catcher for the Reds?...I said yeah...What's the Big Deal!!!! This guy asks me to give him a short game lesson and 1&1/2 hours later...he's given me a short game lesson with his expertise on the short game from all the famous golf instructors he's worked with....What waste of time!!! I dno't give sh*t who he is and who he has worked with...His short game sucked!!!!
My point is its good to work with these guys to help promote all the good things a LBG....but remember one thing when working Tour Players and Celeb....If you didn't start with them early on and help them move up..It's just a matter of time...before the house get's cleaned..ask Butchie....
The only difference with Lynn....He can actually make it "clean" !
Good Luck Lynn make sure you get everything in writing....Trust me I know from experience and ride them waves til they hit he beach.....
