-New York, NY – With the culmination of the website and two different tourneys, Segathon was growing fast and was garnering National Media attention. Instead of focusing on some the past champs of Segathon the National Media chose relative newcomer Dan as the face of Segathon.It started off slow, Dan did interviews for ESPN 8 the ocho but it was at the Rose Bowl Parade where he and Michael Winslow (the black guy that makes funny noises from the Police Academy Movies) introduced a parade float with singing bananas where he was spotted by Gerry Woo Fluding of Goonz Models. “The Goon Look is the new Heroin Sheik, and Dan is the biggest Goon I have ever saw.” stated Fluding.
Well it was a whirlwind tour for Dan: Paris, Milan, Green Bay, Dan went everywhere and pitch everything. From Jock Straps to Silverware Dan pitched it all with his crowning achievement being the official spokesman for the McRib sandwhich that McDonald’s was to bring back. But like any fad, the Goon Modeling faded quickly and by the first of April Dan was relegated to doing obscure PSA’s on the county level.
