Flood Appeal Challenge - Moxxxie - Friday 25-Feb-2011
Date: 25/02/2011
Venue: Moxxxie's Workplace, Milton Brisbane
Time: 13:15
Mission:
To ensure the safety of the local inhabitants, and ensure that all fund-raising promises were kept.
Over $800 would be donated to the Flood Appeal, so long as I could get my boss dressed in Stormtrooper armour. Well... I did it!
Trooper Attendance:
TK Moxxxie
Guest Trooper Attendance:
TK "Commander" Steve (Moxxxie's Boss)
Detail:
At 13.00, pizza was delivered to the place of "impact" and both Moxxxie and the "Commander" prepared to suit-up. Moxxxie had to give detailed instructions and demonstrations on how to put on the armour - something that is taken for granted by any seasoned veteran. We got there in the end - and had a great laugh.
We invited several 'floors' of our office in for lunch and photos. This was only a small unofficial troop, but much fun and laughter were had by all.
Big thanks goes to Steve for being such a good sport and putting on our awkward armour. Thanks also goes to Cobra for lending me his suit of armour for the day!
Injuries:
Nil
Malfunctions:
Nil
Public Incidents:
as part of the dare, both troopers walked across Coronation Drive to take a photo with a local law enforcement officer directing traffic. Traffic was subsequently stopped while the law enforcement officer fished out his iPhone in order to get a photographic memento.
Mission Status:
Success!

Awesome. I've been thinking about talking to higherups on having a stormtrooper at work on the tarmac. Doubt we could convince BAC into letting it happen though.

Awesome, that pic of your boss on the phone has to go into one of the rotating images..its a keeper.
