* A private golf clinic with world champion Ernie Els
* A visit with film director Doug Liman and actor Jake Gyllenhaal on the set of their upcoming movie
* A visit to the set of Good Morning America with Diane Sawyer
* A night at the theatre with Mike Nichols
* The Red Sox VIP treatment in the owner's suite at Fenway Park this fall
* An invitation to the 2009 American Idol finals
There's a chance here for another excellent adventure a la Ted and Lisa....  :)

That's really interesting.  I wonder if Jake participates in these fan lunches relatively routinely?

Hearing it put that way, I am reminded of the movie Soapdish, where, whenever the Sally Field character (an aging soap star) would feel down in the dumps, her very practical show worker (played by Whoopi Goldberg) would take her to a local mall, then suddenly gasp loudly, "Oh my God!  You're that famous soap star!"  and then step back as the regular shoppers would come flocking over and deluge the star with adoration and ask for her autograph, which she would beneficently give out.  It was hilarious and touching.

LOL, yeah, I can see how that might be a little boost for a person feeling down in the dumps.

Well, based on their descriptions, it sounds like Ted and Lisa did a good job conveying lots of Brokie love for Jake if he's feeling down in the dumps or needed a little boost... I hope he understands a bit about the extent of Brokie affection at least.

And, maybe if he understands how strong friendships and communities have been forged based entirely off of BBM (as in Ted and Lisa becoming friends based on Brokie forums) that would be a powerful and positive thing for him too.

If he sees only 1/100th of the posts ad lives changed, I would guess it would be both empowering but also  little overwelming.I cannot conceive how it must feel knowing that something you ave done has had such a butterfly effect.Good but a little scary, would be my bet.

Hi all!
He might not browse in Brokies' communities himself, but I wouldn't be surprised if his assistant or someone else close to him does, and reports back. Well, that's my guess.
