Used to date a girl that worked at TJMaxx in Topeka. Went in bought a pair of jeans, she threw in 3 Polo shirts and a sweet leather jacket that I gave to my mom for Xmas.

I remember I posted back on ksufans that I gave Beasley a discount at Hat World in the manhattan mall since he autographed a hat for me.  I think sys or waks pm'ed me and told me that I should take the post down IMMEDIATELY since it screamed impermissible benefit.  I didn't take it down tho    :emawkid:

definitely wasn't me.  i'm a muckraker.

I used to allow a certain running back from KSU to stay (read eff) at my house in KC on the weekends (did not charge him) during the offseason.  One of his friends (and a former KSU player) went "shopping" in my closet when I was out of town...I did not bring charges  :gocho:  Bought lots of drinks for KSU athletes spending the weekends in KC...many were very appreciative....Michael Smith was not.

While attending the University of Arkansas I saw more violations than I could count, not the least of which was Lee Mayberry (he rode the bus all through high school...father was the janitor) driving a brand new Corvette convertible his first year of school.  Basketball players rode brand new matching scooters for a year after going to the final four.  Local prosecutor donated his daughter to the football and basketball teams for a gang rape...never prosecuted and athletes never missed a game.

I also worked at the Jimmy Johns in Aggieville.  Jason Bennett would come in and buy two Gargantuans roughly 4 times per week.  When he would walk out, I would yell "watch your head!"

I self-reported the incident at the time; Bennett is currently appealing.

Given: Used to wash dishes and bus tables at Perkins Restaurant. We could only keep pies for 48 hours after they were made before we had to throw them out. They used to be cool and let me just take them home when I closed the restaurant, but then we got a new manager who said we had to throw them in the garbage. NO problem, I parked by the dumpster and snuck them into my back seat when it was time to "throw the pies away." Would usually come home with 3 full pies on a good night.  :gocho:

Received: In high school, a good friend worked his way up to assistant manager at Dominos Pizza. Could call in and order whatever pizza or toppings we wanted and just go pick it up without paying. In hindsight, we didn't utilize this as much as we should have. Also, lived in the dorms with a guy who worked at Dara's. Free fountain drinks and he'd bring all the leftover pastries at the end of his shifts.

When I worked at Enron in Houston, TX, my friend Ken and I took a few bucks here and there, and then shifted the debt to other subsidiaries, elevating the stock price so when we sold our stock, we made some nice scratch.  Not a huge deal, but we felt like it was a sweet perk.

  Yeah, getting free stuff from hookers is harder and more rewarding than that.
