More on Wing Kong


Wing Kong Logo

So the event is getting near and it's baffling how much work I've put into this silly project. The logo was some work, the press photo, writing the press release was quite abit, and I still have to alter the artwork for silkscreening, find a silkscreener, and rip the voicetrack off of "Welcome to the Jungle" and replace it with Gorilla Screams. We had a meeting on Sat nite and one guy is almost finished with the float. It's a 10 foot tall "Liberty One" (the big skyscaper in Philly) He even designed it to house a quarter keg on the inside so we can drink during the event in the Wachovia Center. We're supposed to get there at around 3am to start setting up. At that time we'll be assigned 2 'Wingettes' which are basically strippers who want to win a vacation to some island. The winner of the Wing Bowl wins a new Suzuki Car that they say is worth $17K. My guess is that you could get $9K for it if you were lucky, but hey...I mean...free car!!!

We've also got 2-3 chix in our enteurage on top of that. The remaining 6 or 7 guys either worked on it or is a sponsor. I'm almost scared for Wing Kong, in an excited kiind of way, 25,000 people will be screaming and yelling and throwing full beer cans in his general direction....who can resist Wing Kong?
