WLOY goes to Louisville Part 1
Thursday, October 28th, 2010 by WLOY Staff
And we are off! Some of the WLOY crew is heading to Louisville, KY for the weekend for the National College Media Convention. I’m going to try and sporadically send updates about what we are up to and what sort of ridiculous stuff happens.
To start, I just want to put a disclaimer out there That’s I’m typing this on my phone so please excuse my misspellings and poor grammar. I know this will get on the Web Mistress’ (Amanda Nolan) nerves.
We are bringing quite a crowd to the convention. I’m joined by The Professor, Billy, Christa, Amanda, and Anthony. We almost left Anthony this morning because he got caught up playing his PlayStation in his room and almost forgot about us. Anthony also made the mistake of bringing a HUGE suitcase that had to be checked… How much clothing is he planning on wearing over the course of four days? (more…)
