Here are the videos for this event that happened a couple a weeks ago. The one recap has random clips and has the mentos/diet coke guys explain everything on why the mentos creates an explosion when dropped in soda. You can also watch their performance directly if you want to avoid that. Enjoy!
Stay no less than stunningly fresh,
Joe

Bust Magazine's Craftacular/World Maker Faire Recap
This event was a fun one because it did have a bunch of vendors, free craft activities, and science events to check out. I will post the video later, but I saw the guys who made the mentos/diet coke spectacle at this World Maker Faire. It's Fall, but it certainly did not feel like it with the weather being so hot. Good ol' summer did not want to leave.
I honestly thought that Bluu Dreams and Branded Baron sharing wasn't going to be so great after we finished the set up, because it felt so tight and the customers would not have enough room to check out the shirts from both companies. We weren't able to hang our banners, but it worked out fine and everyone got a chance to feel the swagger of Branded Baron and Bluu Dreams. Yes, I said swagger.
This event was big and the space was huge, since it was in Flushing Meadows, Corona Park, Queens. Yes, we were by the tennis courts for the U.S. Open and near Citi Field. There were a lot of people of that came by and they stopped by to enjoy what we had to offer. I never know how the reaction is going to be for Branded Baron, but it was positive. I'm really happy people complimented designs and a bunch of people picked some shirts up. I tried selling hoodies, but it was way too hot and no one wanted to mess with that just yet. Not everyone who came by were from the NY Metro area, because I sold shirts to people from North Carolina and Cali. I definitely liked talking to all the people who came by. This one couple came back before leaving and I asked them how they enjoyed their day. They had a good time and that's great, because you need to have fun. I'm glad they left on a positive note and tee. :) The day was a great day to have fun, bottom line.
I definitely had tons of fun cracking jokes, listening the eclectic collection by the DJs, enjoying the vibe of the event, meeting new people, and having new people wear Branded Baron. I think I would like to do it again next year. Thanks to Anderson for this little collabo, we were able to bounce some new ideas off each other and that was good. I have to thank my boy Chi for helping me out and I think he's going to help me out again at Sneaker Con in October.

I remember this caught his eye and his brother ended up purchasing the sorcerer hand's tee
This dude really liked this shirt and I'm glad he picked it up.
She liked this shirt and I remember she also didn't want to buy anymore black tees, which she looked like she wanted.
I thought they had a great name, Wanna hava cookie
This was a cool molding method.
Anderson of Bluu Dreams bringing some lunch. Yes, I had to help sell his shirts since he went out. There's nothing wrong with being nice.
Chi bringing the smoothies while rocking the guy's "Love Gambles All tee".
Yum. Gyro and a strawberry banana smoothie.
The 360 degree swing of death.
That was made with yarn. I found that to be quite impressive.
The mice for the life sized mouse trap
Not the greatest view, but that's the mousetrap. I don't know how many of you played or remember that board game.
Oh yea. The Diet Coke/Mentos show. They said it took 3 hours to set up, but it took about 3 minutes to have all the diet coke launch.
Looking out from inside. I see one of the BUST magazine tables.
I had to sit down and chill for a bit.

On Sunday, September 26th, I will be at the M&L Custom Ramps Skate Demo out in Wayne, New Jersey. M&L is a company that creates custom skate ramps and what a great way for this company to gain more exposure by having a skate competition. You won't see doing kick flips, especially since it's been a long time since I've been on a board. Maybe I'll bring my board on Sunday, but I'm definitely there to support the local skate scene. There will be two competitions on each day and the winners for each day will win prizes. Even though Branded Baron will not be there on Saturday, the winner will have Branded Baron included with the rest of the prizes. So to all you skaters out there, come out. Branded Baron shirts and hoodies will be on sale too. I'm definitely looking forward to this event and recording the competition.
Location: Hot Dog Hut Parking Lot
126 Mountainview Blvd.
Wayne, NJ
Contest starts @ Noon
Register and practice 10a.m.-11a.m.
Stay no less than stunningly fresh,
Joe
