The San Diegan Posted March 13 Posted March 13 As some of you know, I began doing standup a couple years ago. Sometime last summer/fall, I wrote a bit about how as a married man, the older you get the more clothes you wear from Costco. Skip ahead a couple months, and I'm listening to an interview with Nick Boyd by Gottleib or some other syndicated sports talk show host on his podcast. When the host asked him how he was spending his NIL money, Nick alluded to saving almost all of it, but spending a little bit on threads. The host jokingly asked him if that meant he was buying clothes at Costco, only for Nick to tell him hell no he doesn't buy clothes at Costco. I cracked up as I immediately thought about my bit, and made a note to myself to tell NIck, given the chance, "not yet young man. Give it time." Well, now skip the fuck ahead to last Saturday. I recently renewed my postgame tradition of greeting players on their way back to the locker room to let them know I appreciate them and to give praise where praise is due. Nick was the last guy off the court after a postgame interview, and after thanking him I welcomed him (belatedly for sure) to San Diego, and then waved him in. He leaned in and I told him, "Hey man - just so you know, the older you get, the more clothes from Costco you wear." And his look - this look: ...Told me he had ZERO recollection of some random conversation he had on a podcast interview 4-5 months ago. In his mind, some random middle-aged white guy just leaned in all conspiratorially-like and randomly told him - "Yo, stranger! Someday, YOU'RE going to wear a lot of clothes from Costco. PEACE!" and just walked off. 🤣 Sorry for the confusion my man. 😀 2 4 Quote

MissionTrails Posted March 13 Posted March 13 On certain days, literally everything I'm wearing was bought at Costco - shoes, socks, underwear, pants, shirt, even hat. I tell my wife it's "Fashion by Kirkland". 🤣 Quote

Jack Bauer Posted March 16 Posted March 16 This is so true. I have tons of shorts and Tshirts from Costco, a coat, some socks, and a bunch of hoodies and pullovers from there too. Quote
