Word up! Has anyone gotten a Cameo as a gift for someone?

    I’m really thinking about Fiona the Hippo for my wife.

    The prices people are charging, or not charging, is amazing.

    I figured it’d be all D-listers, and then I saw Joe Maddon.

    The Laker Girls did a routine to Word Up! during Showtime. It was a good routine.

    I was once pulled over for weaving. I blame Cameo. I was driving a friend home after a long day and night of waiting for the final mid-season trade announcements. It was stupid o'clock, and we noticed that every traffic light in Downtown Nashville was blinking in time to "Word Up." It really isn't that funny, but we were so tired it was hilarious to us right then. One of Metro's Finest pulled us over in front of City Hall and I tried hard to stop laughing. We snorted, we wept, and we giggled as we tried to explain that we had been watching various media coordinators, coaches, GMs, and players try to talk when they were paid to do anything but that the rest of the year and we were tired and Cameo is funny.

    My friend showed him her laminate and grabbed mine off my rear-view mirror. I'd taped a picture of a tarsier over the team mascot.

    He followed us across the river to a convenience store and made me get a cup of coffee and drink it before he let us go.

    Friend of mine bought Barry Williams (Greg Brady) and he was... magnificent.

    Even sang a song for his wife. She was beyond thrilled.

    It surprised me, too. I went thirty pages in. While most of them were, "Who?" there were a few I didn't expect: John Cleese, Bob Saget, Ed Asner, Miranda Hart...

    Can I get a cameo of Cameo on Cameo?

    A local brewery used it to post on their social media pages and had Terry Francona talk about the Indians (we're in Ohio, so makes sense).

    I got my wife Fiona the Hippo for 100.
