Not attacking at all Chris. So its ok for whatever reason you try to connect me w UT bull crap just bc my daughter went there.
Then you want to plsy the victim.
Happy New Year to you as well. Be nicer in 2024 would be good. W Political board gone i thk there’s Hope!

Edit: just found it odd that you support anyone that has close ties to UT as well. Since u let us know fully that anything remotely tied into UT is a No Go. Well mattress mack is for sure. That’s all i was mentioning.
Good day Sir.

:joy::rofl::grin:. What up Kyle Be !

It’s a standard hedge.He tries to break even and leverage the promotion to make money elsewhere.

He was a cokehead at one point. Usually addicts just move from one addiction to another.

Honestly, he should try Mounjaro or Ozempic; those drugs have been shown to not only reduce weight, but addictions.

All I care is that he is giving to U of H and the Houston area.

Actually, what I think he does is smart. He gets all kinds of publicity for his bets. His bets are probably offset by sales. I’m an OOTC, but I expect he still does his free giveaway on furniture if team X wins?
If you buy and X wins, it’s free. He wins on his bet but gives away free furniture. If X loses, he loses his bet, you have to pay for the furniture.

He’s been a good corporate citizen as far as UH is concerned. He has supported UH. He knows that Whorns and Aggies buy furniture too and supports them as well. Remember the Michael Jordan quote when asked why he wasn’t more active politically, “Republicans by shoes too.”

I still remember him most from the 1980s when he came to my local Elementary school telling us not to use cocaine

Mack could teach advertising 101, mass media blitz used by My Pillow and Balance of Nature today. Hundreds of adds a day make you look successful even when he was working out of a shack on I45 in the 70’s, dressed as a mattress he would jump around on TV until he was the talk of the town, now worth millions.

Uh, I don’t know about the shack but I do know that he came here from every H town’s favorite-Dallas. He wasn’t exactly on welfare either, considering his brother-who had mucho pesos and coins-had given him 5K to scout around and see if he could start a bidness. Something in my expanding gut tells me he wasn’t living in a shack. --and how, being so poor, could he afford a TV ad(s)?

I never did a line of coke off a urinal so his “Just Say NO to Cocaine” apparently worked!

I wonder what his net worth is

Not living in a shack, Gallery Furniture was a small warehouse in the 70’s. I drove by many times in 70’s and 80’s and remember seeing the transformation, it started out as a dump. I would never buy a mattress from there. Completely different today. Back in the day, they only sold mattresses, I think it was called Gallery Mattress, now Gallery Furniture.
