Tie Tuesday @ ASI

Filed under: General

There are some real characters here at ASI. From the outwardly flamboyant Matt “Mr. Wearables” George to the subtly hysterical Andy “Captain Killjoy” Cohen, never a dull moment is had here in the hallowed halls of Advertising Specialty Institute.

So when for no reason I — who literally works in a dark closet with designers and developers and has no real pressing reason to dress formally – donned a tie a few Tuesdays ago, I received a bevy of snarky comments such as:

  • “Hey there, Senator!”
  • “When’s the interview?”
  • “My condolences”

And on and on. But then someone mentioned or said in passing that we should all dress up next week, and, not thinking of who I was dealing with, said, “We should do a Tie Tuesday.”

Boy am I sorry I did.

Now almost all the men in both Editorial and ASICentral are dressing up like members of the Young Republicans Club on Tuesdays (not that there’s anything wrong with that), and I’m taking the heat.

Anyway, this past Tuesday, thanks to Editor Joe Haley of The Joe Show, we had an impromptu photo session to ascertain the best tie @ ASI and, according to Joe, of course, he won when votes were solicited via email. But I’m not convinced. In fact, I think the results were skewed with everyone’s favorite cranky editor voting for himself multiple times. He was the gatekeeper of votes, so … Yeah.

Since I have my own blog, let’s do this thing fair and square. The following are the ties … let us know which one you think is the best by commenting below or emailing us at feedback@asicentral.com
