The Lemonade Shaking Guy

[mikeyboy]

<p>I was looking for a picture of Wild Bill Hagy for a sig pic, when I came across <a href="http://www.lemonadeshakingguy.com/main.php" target="_self">this site</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you've ever been to Camden Yards, you may have seen this guy.&nbsp; We used to have tickets in the lower deck along the first base line, and we'd see him every game.&nbsp; He's a lemonade vendor, and his whole shtick is that when you buy a lemonade from him, he'll shake it for you -- except he shakes his whole body in a really exagerated fashion.&nbsp; It's pretty hokey, but the crowds seem to like it -- he sells an assload of lemonades, and many people tip him a buck or two, so I think he's making out pretty well.</p><p>Anyway, from this website I see that he is now considered an entertainer, auctioneer&nbsp;and a motivational speaker.&nbsp; Of course you can hire him for parties and events.&nbsp; More power to him, I guess.&nbsp;&nbsp;He's been able to parlay what otherwise might be a pretty crappy job and some two dimensional shtick into a whole other thing.&nbsp; I'm just amazed at what can get you in the public eye in this day and age.</p><p><img height="300" src="http://www.lemonadeshakingguy.com/picz/Lemon400/100_0109.jpg" width="400" border="0" /></p><p><img height="229" src="http://www.lemonadeshakingguy.com/images/386.jpg" width="175" border="0" /></p><img src="http://scripts.cgispy.com/image.cgi?u=mikeyboy" border="0" /><br /><a href="http://www.osirusonline.com/ronfez.htm" target="blank">Ron &amp; Fez Show Log</a>; Daily News Scratch N' Match is the Devil<br /><a href="http://www.radiobbq.net/" target="blank">The Music Mikey Likes Show on RadioBBQ, weekdays 11:00 am - 1:00 pm</a><br />Now with new <a href="http://www.ronfez.net/mediastorage/mikey/mikeyshowtheme.mp3" target="blank">theme song</a> by BoBoGolem

<p>I'd like to hire some big brute to shake him. What a racket! People are so stupid they are entertained by this?</p><p>Is the lemonade any good?</p>

The Lemonaide isnt any better than any lemonaide served at a county
fair or some similar event.&nbsp; He's not all that entertaining,
actually kind of irritating.&nbsp; But apparently, every team is
allowed to send a vendor to the all-star game,and this guy always reps
the O's.&nbsp; I'm not a real fan, but more power to him.<br />

Matt Laughlin used to interview this guy during the game every time the Mets went to Camden Yards.&nbsp; At the end of the interview he would start shaking along with the lemonade guy making it extra hokey and extra cringe worthy.

<p>Way off-topic but,</p><p>Has anyone seen that wacky tricycle guy going up and down Newberry Street in Boston?</p><p>Last year, I was in a band with a guy who had, many years earlier, gone to Berklee.&nbsp; I think he graduated in 1999.</p><p>In 2004, we were on tour and we had a day off in Boston so we went shopping on Newberry Street.&nbsp; There was a guy there. Must've been 50 or 60 years old.&nbsp; Riding an adult sized tricycle with a 6ft high flexible orange safety flag sticking up and out of the seat.&nbsp; He would ride up and down the sidewalk and scream &quot;HAAAAY-UP!&nbsp; HAAAY-UP&quot; in a booming voice over and over and over.&nbsp; That's all he did the whole day we were there.</p><p>My guitar player freaked out!&nbsp; He said that, when he went to Berklee...that dude was there!&nbsp; Riding up and down Newberry...yelling the same stupid thing!&nbsp; I guess he never leaves that street.</p><p>Anyone else see that dude?!!</p>

<p>I'm just happy this isn't in the Entertainment section.</p><p>I heard he started out as the &quot;Root Beer Shaking Guy&quot; but that didn't work as well.</p>

Does it bug you that your local pharmacy sells cigarettes and emphysema medicine?
