I noticed we (The Wildlife Experience) are hosting an event for the Jake Plummer charity foundation, whatever it is called. It reminded me of a story one of the guys here told me about Jake and his arrogance.
Keith, the Communications Coordinator here at TWE, had his wedding reception at the Inverness Hotel in Denver. The Broncos were also there having an anniversary party or something like that.
Keith's brother-in-law, Shane who is from Florida, out for the wedding, headed to the elevator and as its about to close and go up, he sticks his hand between the doors and they open. He gets in and starts his ride.
Well, Jake, a big bodyguard, and a woman on each of his arms is in there too. Shane nods and says thanks.
Jake, says, "Oh, did you want an autograph?"
Shane says, "Um... no. " (not knowing, or not caring who he is and turns around).
Jake then says, "Well, I'm Jake Plummer and I play for the Denver Broncos!" Trying to get his pride and ego back.
Shane turns when Jake says that and says, "Hi, I'm Shane Smith and I sell boats in Florida!"
I guess the bodyguard and the women started cracking up. I wish I was there to see the look on Jake's face.
