Print ’01 & 9-11. Chicago. Illinois

 September 12, 2001  Posted in Uncategorized

Print ’01 was a tradeshow that no one will ever forget – it was supposed to be the “BIG” show since it only happens every four years, the US DRUPA, so to speak.

The event of September 11, 2001 happened right in the middle of Print, and the show ended up being a no-show, with everyone wondering what is going on in this world…

We ended up being stranded in Chicago and eventually drove back to Minneapolis in a minivan…

Helmut with his good friend Uwe
Marcus and David. having a good time
“What does CGS stand for?”
Helmut secretly blowing Opa Gerdts a kiss
Marcus’ turn to fall asleep
That’s my last drink, I swear…
Can I get another Sambuca?
Why are you looking at me like that?
Okay tell me what is wrong…
The OLDER guys are having all the fun…
… while the YOUNGER guys are so civilized…?
Uwe is going home, but Helmut wants him to stay for company…
Good night, Uwe!
I’m so lonely! My best friend went home!!! AHHHHHH!
Marcus decides to drink water with David…
Hmmm… Yummy

(30 minutes later – Helmut falls asleep while drinking)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHH!!!!
“We have WAY too much fun together, guys!”
Marcus holding hands with David under the table…
Marcus, Helmut and I decides to have “one last drink” at *another* bar by our hotel…

Marcus tries to smoke his invisible cigar…
Helmut falls asleep while smoking…
Give me another beer!
Perfect hockey teeth…
I am ready to go to my bed now…
“Marcus – you are not walking straight!”
Good night Helmut!
“We REALLY have way too much fun…”
