Kept a few drunks off the road!

I just got off the phone with Chad, our Director of Marketing. He reports that so far we have taken eight people home from the Summer Dance Party sponsored by Bistro 33 in El Dorado Hills, and more are expected. While we of course hope to generate some future business from this service, it is good to know that we have kept some potential drunk drivers off the road (plus the good karma we generated has apparently rubbed off on the poker gods, as I just moneyed in the online sit and go tournament that I am playing while writing this!)

By the way, if you haven’t been to Bistro 33’s newest location you should check it out. It is very nicely appointed and the staff was very attentive. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time for a slider or two, but I will defiantly be heading back up there before long. I should also mention that the amphitheater, while small, is a perfect venue for the type of concert series they are promoting.

One final note, as I was making my way downtown to try to meet up with the “Ring Girls” who were promoting the upcoming Mixed Martial Arts Fights in Stockton, I saw one of our competitors Hummers pulled over to the side off Highway 50. I had my operations manager call the competitor to see if they needed any help, but they claimed to have the situation under control. Apparently they had suffered a SECOND flat tire on the same trip. Has to make you wonder whether they got a bad batch of tires or if perhaps their tire maintenance and rotation polices aren’t up to par.

We ended up with almost 20 people kept off the road who all got home safe and comfortable. The chauffeurs Adriane and Nick, (Thanks again!) did a great job and really made the night a success for Luxury. I agree that the venue was perfect but Bistro 33was fantastic! The staff was incredible (I met a bunch of great people there) and the event was very well organized. I didn't see anything but a ton of people having a ton of fun.

I can't wait for the next concert, and I will definitely be taking my girlfriend up to Bistro 33 for dinner soon.

Bill, it was a great idea for us to be a part of this event. I was really happy to be part of helping people get home safe and proud to be representing Luxury Limousines.
