Our reading
Brent Brennan spent $2,000 on 300 tequila shots for fans at a bar, which is a lot of tequila for a lot of people who might not have asked for it. The coach said it was to show appreciation, but the real question is whether the fans needed the tequila more than the coach needed to feel good about himself.
It’s not like the fans were asking for a free drink. They were probably just celebrating a win, and now they have to deal with the aftermath of a coach who thinks a shot is the best way to say thanks. Maybe next time he’ll bring a case of Gatorade instead.
The coach said he wanted to invest in the fans, but the real investment was in his own ego. He didn’t need to buy 300 shots—he just needed to say the right thing, and maybe not spend $2,000 on something that will probably end up in the trash by morning.
