I went to Tampa for a day to assist Scott Gries on a portrait session with some cops. Someone had shot a show called “Rookies” where they followed some fresh faced police officers in training, and now they needed some portraits. We did an afternoon of posed shots and now Scott is following them around on duty for the next 2 days. It was some celebration for the Devil Rays and they were giving away free food in the park opposite the station, which meant we had a crowd of homeless people on the benches watching us (and our equipment) for the whole afternoon. This one guy wanted every officer to “pull out your gun and stand like Dirty Harry.”
On the flight home I was served a Woodford Reserve that contained Coca-cola instead of bourbon. The flight attendant looked very embarassed and rushed to get me another. The strange part was that the seal of the bottle had not been cracked. Somehow someone had worked out how to replace the bourbon with coke that was still fizzy. No police in the world could solve that mystery!
