TNBassin' Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Man what an awesome day! Got to BPS about 12, and got to meet Timmy Horton and Kevin VanDam. Were as nice and humble as could be, never acted like it was too much trouble to answer a question, sign an auto, or take a picture. KVD even told me how nice it was of me to take the hooks off my 6XD before he signed it. Not only did he sign my 6XD, he signed his action figure, A KVD 1.5 in cataouche color, And my Oakley bag! All in all it was a great day, And one I won't soon forget. KVD impressed me so much, I almost bought his reel and rod. Almost lol. Let me know what you think of the pics, And I'd u want me to post links to the videos I took of KVD and Horton's seminars just let me know. 3 Quote
Rangerphil Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Awesome! Did you learn anything that you could share with us? Quote
TNBassin' Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Got both seminars on video so I will upload those soon. KVD had some great info on jerkbaits. Quote
shootermcbob Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Great day for you. Happy you had such a great time. Thanks for sharing the videos. Quote
Super User Deleted account Posted March 2, 2013 Super User Posted March 2, 2013 Man up, its a doll... Quote
TNBassin' Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 Man up, its a doll... Well to my little girl it's an action figure, and she was super happy I brought it to her. Why be that way???? What a dick head. Those videos are about 2gb so they should be up a little later. When they are I will link them. Quote
Super User slonezp Posted March 2, 2013 Super User Posted March 2, 2013 Methinks KVD should get a restraining order against you. Just sayin' 3 Quote
bassh8er Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Methinks KVD should get a restraining order against you. Just sayin' That's good. Glad to hear he's a good dude in person. Quote
TNBassin' Posted March 2, 2013 Author Posted March 2, 2013 One thing I did notice and I kind of got a laugh from it, was his signature went from his full name at the beginning, to just KVD lol. Pretty sure his hand was cramping up by the end. And retraining order? Lol. We are from neighboring towns, so yeah I definitely root for the guy and am a huge fan. Quote
TheKingFisher Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Sounds like you had a good time. Thanks for sharing. Always a good vibe to share someone's joy of meeting someone they admire. It's generally harmless. I haven't been a fishing nut long enough to have someone grow on me yet. But I sure do enjoy watching the Hank Parker fishing show. Did notice one thing, man those are some huge bass that come with the KVD action figure! 1 Quote
Super User rockchalk06 Posted March 2, 2013 Super User Posted March 2, 2013 Sweet. Glad you had a good time. Autographs are always cool. And to "reason" didn't your mom just call you for dinner? Quote
Super User Darren. Posted March 3, 2013 Super User Posted March 3, 2013 Awesome stuff, TNBassin' Quote
TNBassin' Posted March 3, 2013 Author Posted March 3, 2013 Sweet. Glad you had a good time. Autographs are always cool. And to "reason" didn't your mom just call you for dinner? Lol! I'm not sure why people have to come into threads and act like a ****** here. Seems to be a trend nowadays. Quote
prjavelin Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 dude forget about mean comments. those are probably done in a busting your balls like an old friend kinda way. anyways did you get those videos uploaded yet???? Im dying to watch all the stuff about jerkbaits. thanks A lot for taking the time to share with us. Quote
TNBassin' Posted March 3, 2013 Author Posted March 3, 2013 I got one part uploaded that is around 5 minutes long, but the first part which is about 22 minutes long will be up tomorrow. It's over a gigabyte because my phone does video in hd so I'm gonna wait til I'm at work to upload it since we have crazy fast internet there. Quote
HookSetDon Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Nice pics! Did you upload a video? I didnt see any. Quote
TNBassin' Posted March 3, 2013 Author Posted March 3, 2013 I have one up that is about 5 minutes long. I was filming and got a phone call that interrupted my video so it's split into. The one that is up is the last five minutes of the seminar, and the first 22 minutes is what I still need to upload. We have slow internet at the house and that file is over a gigabyte so I'm gonna wait until tonight and upload at work. I tried to last night here at the house and some how it got interrupted at at 63% and wouldn't resume. I'm trying it again now just for s&gs and it's at 71% so it may be up in the next couple hours. I will post up Timmy Horton's seminar as well, even though it wasn't real informative lol. Quote
prjavelin Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 one question: can you confirm if timmy has a wig or thats real hair? 1 Quote
SudburyBasser Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Cool stuff dude. Meeting either of those guys would be pretty gear but both at the same time is fantastic. Quote
Ken Browning Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I was there also but I left just about the time the presentations began. The crowd was just to much for me. My first time to a BPS. It was a really neat place. I liked the big fish tank. Quote
TNBassin' Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 Our tanks sucks compared to other BPS. Quote
