Our Very Own Sothron Getting Some National Pub

[PSSSHHHRRR87]

I contacted Soth before posting this too.  He says he got message on Twitter from Bob Rathbun, Andre, and the Hawks on the tweet, and the tweet was also put on Sportscenter.

 

Start rolling at 1:15 to see the tweet:

Pretty cool to see one of our guys on the Squawk getting this type of attention!  Go Hawks!

Niiiiice @Sothron good stuff! Representin!!!

@Sothron Sweet!!

Thanks guys. :) I was very leery about saying anything to anyone but this was honestly one of my best moments as a fan. They read my tweet live on air during that game and it showed later that night on ESPN. I got tweets of support from the official team, Bob Rathbun, Andre and ESPN asking for permission to use it. Then they followed that up with that social minute video you can see above.

 

I know you guys and gals can appreciate more than anyone what it means to have a team you faithfully supported for so many years to take a moment to acknowledge you and your loyalty. If I could hug the person that green lighted putting my tweet on air and following up with it on their social minute I would.

Nice job! I'm sure you're very proud of that and it's nice to see someone here get a minute in the limelight. 

 

I don't know what you gotta do to get that honor but come on man mine was Gold Jerry, Gold!

Somebody say something about Jessica Taylor?  That's all I got from that link.

 

Kidding, very cool @Sothron

That's what I call a faithful Hawks fan. Congratulations.

For some reason the video freezes up on me. Can anyone post the video in here? 

[AHF]

Congrats, Sothron! I can't wait to get to my computer to see it!

[AHawks89]

Just watched it. Good stuff Sothron!

You can Tweet without a smartphone?

You can Tweet without a smartphone?

I thought about that too, but it's not just a smartphone but without a cellphone period?

@Sothron I guess the wife let you use hers.

LOL!

 

I was literally getting up and jogging back and forth during that game between my living room and the bedroom where we keep our desktop computers. That is how I was able to tweet during the game. I honestly don't know how to text so even if Mrs. Sothron gave me her phone to use it would do me little good.

Yeah, it is the only way I use the internet outside of my work computer...also a desktop. :p

 

I am a big gamer on my desktop and PS3 and PS4 though. I'm not totally tech averse lol
