U2 Concert Skipped To Clean Bathroom
Wednesday, November 4th, 2009Junior Media Planner Josh Nubinski turned down two tickets to last week’s landmark U2 concert in Pasadena, CA because he needed to clean his bathroom and perform other household chores, according to several witnesses at the Los Angeles office of DDBM&G. The decision surprised Janice Blayford, the Rolling Stone sales rep who offered the tickets, but not co-worker Nick Park. ”We get asked to go out to drinks, Happy Hours, concerts, and parties like four times a day,” said Park. ”I mean, there’s only so many nights in a row that you can go out before you start to run out of clean undies. We’re media planners. It’s not like we have a bevy of maids and butlers who turn down our sheets, or assistants who make sure the cable bill is sent out on time. Still, though, I probably would have taken the U2 tickets and cleaned the shower on the weekend. I’m just sayin.” Ed. Note: Senior Field Correspondent Andrew Lin contributed to this story.
