Fang Posted November 19, 2007 Report Posted November 19, 2007 Got into work this morning and a collegue was waiting for me at my desk with a big grin. He produces a page torn out of a magazine and shoves a pen at me for an autograph. He could barely keep a straight face. While flipping through a recent MacLeans magazine at the dentists office, he sees this ad for OFAH Anglers Awards and recognizes the angler as a co-worker. He tore the page out while the receptionist was in the back and brought it in for me. I did notice a couple things though, they photo-shopped out the OFC logos on the black towel and changed my orange Bass Pro Shops hat to a Cabelas. If anyone out there has back issues with this add, I'd love to get my hands on a clean page. My friend folded it up and stuck it in his pocket.
Kirk Posted November 19, 2007 Report Posted November 19, 2007 (edited) I guess spending a couple bucks at a newstand wasn't a viable option and everyone else should read a shredded magazine... I think Macleans sells back issues And Congrats Edited November 19, 2007 by Kirk
davis Posted November 19, 2007 Report Posted November 19, 2007 (edited) cool kinda funny about the photoshop work though...i'm sure you gave them the right to do whatever they wanted when you submitted the photo, but maybe double check the fine print of the submission guidelines to be sure...if you really care anyways... fun to see yourself in print huh? p.s. nice fish!

Roy Posted November 19, 2007 Report Posted November 19, 2007 They photoshopped out OFC? It's time to repost this with OFAH shopped out. How dare they!
tbayboy Posted November 19, 2007 Report Posted November 19, 2007 Very cool, congrats. I can kinda understand removing OFC and other 'free advertising' but to change BPS (a non sponser) to Cabelas (a sponsor) seems a bit wrong rather than just removing the BPS logo. Basically they're saying that you endorse cabelas which may not be true. Gotta love the marketing world.
lew Posted November 19, 2007 Report Posted November 19, 2007 Much better Terry WTG Fang, always good to be recognized for your achievements !!
Terry Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 did they get your permission to photoshop your photo or are they like me and just do it I mean what if you worked for basspro shop and they put a cableas hat on you...
bpsbassman Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 I mean what if you worked for basspro shop and they put a cableas hat on you... Heaven forbid!!!! Congrats on the shot Fang!
