How to have fun at the tennis without actually watching any tennis
Every year Perth hosts a mixed teams tennis event, the Hopman Cup. I used to go every session because I worked there... as a ball kid. Yes, I held the unpaid position that could have been done by a labrador with the promise of a liver treat.

Please tell me you are smuggling Real Jive Turkey to DPCON with you?? He reminds me so much of one of my best friends back in high school.
ReplyDeleteHilarious! Totally Awesome!
ReplyDeleteLook out Australian Open here I come!
you guys make me want to actually GO to the tennis #nomeanfeat
ReplyDeletelove the commentary at the end. so sad the hippo has passed away :P
ReplyDeleteOHMYGOD I have been 'flushed' out of the Burswood Dome before and it is AWESOME. It's like you are flying. Two security guards take an arm each and literally throw you out the door where two more guards wait to catch you. So awesome. I flew about 10m. Not kidding you. It was after the Justin Timberlake concert a few years ago. If I was lying, I would not admit that last fact. You two are massive dorks.
ReplyDeleteI worked at several Hopmans and they were never that much fun!
ReplyDeleteI've asked him to come! He's a DP member because I forced him to join so he could come to our parties
ReplyDeleteWow, now that is high praise :P
ReplyDeleteVlog a response!!!
ReplyDeleteHenrietta Hippo had a good life.
ReplyDeleteI love how they have to stand there to catch you. I got to do it once when I was a ballkid as part of the safety demonstration - was amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt's also pretty fun in the players lounge :) I managed an access all areas pass for the last 5 years I worked there as a paid employee
ReplyDeleteHilarious.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we need to start a campaign to get him there?
ReplyDeleteThat or a kidnapping....
You two are so gawddamn purdy I may have to just suck myself out an exit door.
ReplyDeleteWait… that didn't come out right.
Neither did that.
Namaste biatches.
I vote kidnapping. Just for shits and giggles.
ReplyDeleteI'd suck you out a door. Errr, that didn't come out right either.
