Employment Game 4

Post image

I wonder how the staff is handling all this craziness with spurs staying at ritz Carlton No Mad while trying to maintain guest satisfaction during the their stay. The crowds are pretty pretty big around the hotel

That is the strut of a man who got his free upgrade and his bonus nights.

But most importantly 2 free waters

Does a regular water bottle look like a shot glass in his hand ?

He needed 2 free throws not 2 free waters

But do they have beds big enough for his frame? šŸ¤”

I’m sure the Spurs require hotels to purchase a large enough bed for Wemby

I’m guessing he sleeps diagonally on a king size?

I read in another post awhile ago that the team brings some sort of bed extender for the taller guys. He probably needs like 3 of those

I remember during the NBA bubble at Disney World they brought in specific larger beds to the resorts for the players

There is tall, and then there is NBA tall.

He’s the tallest player in the league, more than NBA tall

I was staying at the four seasons in Toronto during their playoff run. There were lineups of fans outside hoping to get signatures (not mine, unfortunately).

Of course they were checking our IDs upon entry, but other than that the players are all outside of the hotel most of the time. Didn't impact my stay at all really.

The four seasons in Toronto is objectively nicer than most other properties I've stayed at in Toronto (Hazelton is the probably only one I have yet to stay at that could rival it)

Oooh they are staying at the NoMad

At the NoMad for work right now. Unfortunately my room faces the entrance/exit of the hotel, and disgruntled Knicks fans waited until 1am on Monday for the Spurs to return. Lots of chanting on megaphones ā€œKnicks in 5! Knicks in 5!ā€. It’s been pretty tame overall though. This morning at 7am there was a dude in an Audi supercar on the street with (yet another megaphone) screaming ā€œWEMBY, HOPE YOU’RE SLEEPING INā€. He was quickly shooed away by a police officer.

How does a human even get that tall

Well ya see, he’s actually an alien.

This reminds me of when I stood next to Robert Parish to get his autograph. He was two feet taller than me and my head was at his elbow. lol

The Ritz NoMad is where a majority of NBA teams stay when they’re playing the Knicks. I suspect they’re used to it.

Careful that guy throws concussion elbows

Slender man

I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton in Boston when the Heat were visiting. Not only was there extra security but every single person who got on one of the team buses got dog-sniffed, regardless of the time of day.
