This is actually old news (from last year) but I don't think we ever posted this.

Last year 2001cromo and I participated in the shooting of a video for Office Max's Elf Yourself.  We were part of a mob of elves that invaded Union Square Park in NYC.




eeevvvil elf!







to think they actually PAID us to do this!!!  This was the most fun I have ever had on my bike! 
even when the Park Ranger tried to tackle me off my bike when we were asked to ride on the sidewalk of Union Square.  ahhh, memories!

Looks like fun - it always amazed me what you could get away with in Manhattan if you made it look like a movie or commercial shoot.  ;D

I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...

I still can't believe we got away with all the hooligan sh!t we did. I shoulda been locked up. I'm not kidding.

I would have paid money to do that and instead they paid us! Nobody said a word to us that day and there were cops everywhere, but I was told they caught hell for it afterward.  <-- cause of the park ranger that tried to tackle Michelle cause she was riding on the sidewalk.

The second we'd stop anywhere, we'd get mobbed with people taking pictures with their camera phones and anything else...

It was a gamble and totally worth it. I'm glad at least something came of it, cause last year we were checking around and didn't find anything on the web.

I'm with Michelle that's got to be one of the most memorable moments on the monster.

Happy holidays everyone!  [thumbsup]
