THE CHICKENFISH SYNDROME STRIKES AGAIN

David Srebnik is a public radio guy who’s seen me speak at various public radio conferences. If you’ve ever heard my “chickenfish” story, his will make sense.

If you haven’t….Well….

“Got into a little bit of trouble at the NATS game last night.

“I insisted on buying some Watercoke from the vendor who kept passing by our seats. Like many of us, I’m trying to eat healthy, and it sounded like Watercoke might be healthier than regular Coke.

“He refused to sell me the Watercoke…called Security, and I was taken to some security detention area at the stadium.”

“Things got worse when I asked for the Chickenfish.”

Over the years, a lot of people have mentioned the “Chickenfish” story to me.

If you ever heard me tell it, did it make an impact on you? Have you ever shared it with others?

(And if you did, how did they react? Probably just scratched their heads and looked puzzled….)

    I think I heard the story . I wanted to wish you a Happy Fathers Day Dan! Maybe not the right venue but hey you are a hard worker and you do care more than folks might compute…I hope that you get some R&R on The Day! If so go with the Regular Coke.

    I just heard a chickenfish phrase in a commercial recently but for the life of me can't remember it now! Yeah, I use the chickenfish story on our new staffers all the time.
