Recently I was invited out to Chicago to give a few motivational lectures on entrepreneurship and branding. While there, I met some new and old customers in the city of Chi-town. Not only did I sling t-shirts on the cold streets, but I was entered in a Ms. Pacman tournament. Although I had my cousin Bubba and friend Mike to root me on, I was no match to the wiz-kids who also entered. When you surround yourself with like-minded people—in my case, vintage arcade aficionados—there’s nothing but mutual appreciation and laughs. Midwest, thank you for the warm welcome, continued support, and all around good time.
