Boards > We won a Golden Icon Award! Wooo...?

Finally! An award! That's right, Break a Leg has been gifted by the Travolta Family with a Golden Icon Award -- we're... so... happy?!

We're not sure. In fact, we have no idea what a Golden Icon Award is, how they've heard of us, or how, without applying, we got one. But we did.

And I'm offering a cookie to anyone who can figure out two things for me:

1. What the hell is it..?
2. Does it matter, or are they joke awards?

A cookie, guys, a wonderful cookie. Anyone?

Well, according to the web site:"The Travolta Family – what are we? A group of actors, directors, producers, singers, dancers, writers, musicians, models… pretty much everything short of mimes (we all have limits).

In short, the Travolta Family is a Tribe of Entertainers:

None of us any better than another.

All of us with our own unique interests, expertise and sense of humor. "

So, you know...no mimes...I knew that was a bad idea.

They gave out an award for pizza, but pizza is pretty damn important so I think it's safe to say you guys are pretty damn important, too. Yay!
