The Winnie the Pooh Crew at a Tradeshow
Have you even been to a tradeshow? I did, when I still owned my comic book store. I was lucky enough to be at the San Diego Comic Convention and on the New York Action Figures and Toys convention “Toy Fair“. Both times I did some great deals and was I able to take some dream stuff home that my customers loved.
However, never ever did I think of making a link between the tradeshow exhibitors and the Winnie the Pooh gang, but according to the following article you’ll find Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Rabbit, Piglet, owl and thier friend Christopher Robin somewhere between all the exhibitors…
Winnie the Pooh: Pooh Bear may be cute, cuddly and approachable — but he’s also got one thing on his mind. What makes this roly poly bear happy? Honey, of course! He’s obsessed with the golden sweet — when he’s not enjoying a meal, he’s in search of the next smackerel to fill his rumbly-tummy. - A Pooh-style booth staffer is hungry. He might be talking to attendees, but he’s thinking about lunch. If someone walks by with a sandwich, his eyes are instantly drawn to it. Scents from the food court get his nostrils quivering. When he gets a chance to eat, he takes it: even if that means eating in the booth! (American Chronicle)
