OT: Support a Bulldog in an online contest? (posted with approval)

[MagicDawg]

Hey y'all. If you've got a minute, I'd sure appreciate a vote (or ten, or whatever) in an online poll.

Last year I guest starred at a theatre in Charleston and I found out a week ago I was nominated for Guest Performer of the Year. It's being driven as a wide-open online vote, no limits. So it's clearly a publicity drive to get clicks somehow for the theatre -- which is fine. I get it.

That being said, if I'm in it, I'm trying to win it.

I don't have near the social media reach of the "Fool Us" or "America's Got Talent" acts, so I'm just going to whatever places I can to try to scare up a few votes. I hoped my Mississippi State network could help.

Here's the link. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/3THZMDW

Copy the link, then pop it in a new incognito window and vote for Joe M. Turner, then lather/rinse/repeat. You can vote multiple times every day until January 16.

Feel free to share with your network.

Thanks in advance!

Joe

P.S. - If any of you are in the broadcast world, I'm speaking & performing at the MS Assoc of Broadcasters conference in Biloxi next week. Come say hi!

What theatre? The Gothic Castle?***

ETA Vote complete. Though, I have to say Doc Docherty looks like he was a 19th century illusionist that 17ed around with a time travel machine and ended up in 2022.

FYI MagicDawg has the coolest career of anyone on SPS.... Unless one of you suckers is a master distiller at a bourbon distillery and haven't told us.

I had no idea Tallahatchie County had a theatre.

 

[MS-halfstep]

To ensure voting integrity, I think we need video of this performance or at least describe it

 

[MagicDawg]

Sadly, I have no full video of that program. But my YouTube channel has plenty of examples. https://youtube.com/turnermagicchannel

And I know there are posters here who have seen me perform and speak at their own conferences. Maybe they'll see this and chime in.

Thanks.

 

[aTotal360]

Holy cow. I do recognize you. Not sure from where, but we've crossed paths somewhere. By the way, you got a vote from me.

Why you need our damn help, Houdini?***

/ Good luck

 

[MagicDawg]

Thanks!

 

[Hugh's Burner Phone]

Just voted for you. I'll hit you up some more later this afternoon.

 

[ArcadeDawg]

Wow, had no idea we had a great magician among us. When I saw your name associated with Shawn Farquhar, that is enough for me.
Very impressive and would love to see you live in the future.

 

[MagicDawg]

Thank you.

 

[MagicDawg]

Thank you. Shawn and I have been friends for 20 years and have traveled and lectured together.

I did a lot of virtual shows in 2020 and 2021 but I didn't really promote them here. Maybe I should have.

 

[MagicDawg]

Thank you!

 

[MagicDawg]

If they do, someone needs to tell them to book me!

So, can you saw Hadad in half if we stuff him in a box?

 

[forestdepth]

 

[MagicDawg]

As long as the check clears, I don't care if you call it a trick or an illusion.

 

[Dawg_4_lifes]

Done

 

[Dawgg]

Done. Good luck!

 

[MagicDawg]

Thank you.

 

[MagicDawg]

Thanks!

I appreciate the help. I'll try not to be a nuisance about it for the next week.

 

[InTheIttaBenaHotSun]

Got my vote in...good luck Joe!

 

[Bulldogg31]

This thread demands to be taken seriously!! **

 

[MagicDawg]

Thanks!

 

[MagicDawg]

It's a demanding business, that's for sure!

 

[MagicDawg]

Just a bump for the weekend. Thanks.

 

[PooPopsBaldHead]

You made the thread disappear and now it's back... He's amazing folks. ***

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Can you make one of those redheads that platinum posts appear in my living room?

*If you can wait and I will post when the coast is clear Thanks!!!

Sir, please get in line.

Final bump -- today and tomorrow are the last days to vote.
You can right-click on this link and open it in an incognito window, vote, close the window, then repeat as much as you care to:

I was told I'm in 2nd place, so it's actually possible that a final surge could push me over.
Thanks.

 

[InTheIttaBenaHotSun]

Didn't know about the incognito window trick - just put in 15 or so for you. Good Luck!!

 

[MagicDawg]

Thanks!

 

[MagicDawg]

Y'all did it - I won! Thanks! I'm going to get to go perform there again later this year and I'll let y'all know when. Thanks again.

 

[Dawg_4_lifes]

That is awesome!

Congrats man. Wear a 17 jersey for your show

 

[CochiseCowbell]

At the very least a 17it cap or lapel pin.

ETA: Congrats, Magic!

 

[PooPopsBaldHead]

Since we helped get you there, we are going to need you to teach us at least one "illusion." I want to learn a hidden card trick where the card shows up in some young lady's cleavage...

Congrats MD.
