Gavin Newsom is not Interested in your Jokes

We had an enormous charity golf event/dinner at the club yesterday, which was attended by San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom:

Through some horrible oversight by the event coordinators and Lake Merced Golf Club upper management, I ended up at the same dinner table as Newsom. We had the following conversation.

Newsom: So, did you play today?

Me: No, actually I work here. In the pro shop.

Newsom: Ooohh. So you're one of the pros? That seems like an interesting job.

Me: Yeah, it's fun. I like it. How come you didn't play today?

Newsom: I wish I could have. Haven't had much time for golf, lately. Especially with the gubernatorial campaigning.

Me: Yeah. Believe me, I know how that goes. [cheesy smile]

Newsom: [blank stare]

Me: ...

.....Aaannnd scene.

Alright! Thanks, Gav! Or is it, Gov? Get it? Gov? Do you? Really, do you?

  1. During the dinner did Carmina pop out from behind a decorative plant and shout 'I follow you on Twitter!' and then flip off his wife?
