In a growing list of posts you don’t care about comes a small gallery from my recent trip to Miami. I went down for the 10th annual Web Weekend, the nerdiest of all things in my life. Web Weekend is a yearly conference of Miami Dolphins web masters hosted by the Miami Dolphins. I am one of only four people who have gone to all ten of these things and the other three are named Dave.

I used to just go down every weekend for free tickets to a Dolphins game and a chance to tour the locker rooms and the stadium and get to talk to coaches and things like that. Things have changed in the last few years as I founded Dolfans NYC the New York City Miami Dolphins Fan Club with a woman that I met at Web Weekend. Our club has quickly become the biggest Dolphins fan club in the country and we have started big fundraising efforts for charity.

This year we have already raised $3000 for the Miami Dolphins Foundation and we presented the money to the Dolphins new CEO Tom Garfinkle. He was so appreciative of what we do that he invited us up to his suite to watch the game. The seats were amazing and Luther Campbell of 2 Live Crew was watching the game a few feet from me and I was high fiving millionaires when the Dolphins scored. It was completely surreal and completely amazing until the Dolphins managed to lose and then it went downhill fast. Such is football.

Anyway, I didn’t take many pictures this year because I was focusing on promoting the DolfansNYC brand while we were down there and I have done this trip now ten times so some of it does get a little repetitive. That being said there are some pictures from the locker room tour, some from the meetings with coaches and players and former players and some more photos from the “Webby Awards” where our club ended up winning the award for best community for the second year in a row!

If you make it this far in the post I commend you on being curious enough about this weird part of my life to keep reading. Don’t worry, I will put up more girls tomorrow…
