Do You Know Who I Am!?!

May 29, 2013 by tmcgMNM

That question is one of many inside jokes known to regular listeners of The Tony Kornheiser Show heard on ESPN 980 out of Washington. His show is my regular 10 am – noon listening via their website or the podcast if I’m busy.

Recently he started offering “TK” stickers, but the trick is that you can’t just ask for one; you have to work for it. Some people go as far as to record gag versions of the show’s theme song or send in gifts — I wrote a note.

Knowing that Tony went to school in Binghamton, I loaded it with Binghamton University references. The premise is that I have found myself recently attending events that BU President Harvey Stenger also attended, but I needed an excuse to speak with him.

Enter the sticker. Listen to Tony read my letter.

Please note – In my letter I’m joking when I say I left President Stenger’s speech early. Again an inside joke based on Tony’s habit of leaving dinner parties before the dinner is served.
