THE WHOLE WEED SMELLS LIKE THIRD FLOOR: The Whole Story

I went home this weekend to watch my daughter Lani's play. When I go get my kids (Lani and Trey), I usually go see my mom, or my best friend, or my brother, etc. But since she had this play four nights in a row, I decided that we would get a hotel instead. This way, I could just stay there in Kennett, MO, where her school play was at, and not have to drive back and forth.

So I picked my kids up. We went to Paragould, AR and watched Kong: Skull Island and ate some Mexican food. We were having a good time. We got back to Kennett and went to check into a hotel. There are only two hotels in Kennett, the Days Inn and Super 8. Since the Days Inn was closed due to some storm damage, there was literally only one choice for a hotel.

I walked in and checked in at the desk. Including tax, it was $95 for one night. We went upstairs and watched college basketball for about an hour. Then Lani had to get ready for her play, and we were at the play from about 7 pm until 10 pm. That's where this story gets really, really interesting.

So after the play, Trey said he didn't feel well and went back to stay with his mom. Lani had an after-play reception. So I got some Burger King and headed back to Super 8 by myself. I took the elevator up to the third floor, to Room 319. When the elevator door opened, the smell hit me right in the face...

Somebody on the third floor was getting HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH!!!! LOL

So I went to my room. No big deal. If people want to smoke a little weed, I'm not judging anybody. I don't do it or put myself around it, but if that's your thing and it's not bothering me, knock yourself out. The problem was, when I got to my room, I could still smell it. So I after a few minutes, I grabbed my stuff and headed to the front desk.

I told the guy I wanted my money back because the whole third floor smelled like weed. I'm pretty sure I said it right the first time LOL. So he said okay, looked up my room number, and was pretty nice. Then he said he wouldn't give my money back, but that he'd move my room to the first floor. I said no, I just wanted to leave. He said he would go check out the third floor.

So he left, came back, and said "I don't smell anything." Now if he would have said ANYTHING ELSE AT ALL... okay, I'm not gonna lie, it probably wouldn't have mattered what he said. But dude come on. The whole third floor smelled like weed. Don't say you didn't smell it.

So I kind of laughed and said "keep your $95, I'm not staying here." In my line of work (I'm the superintendent of a school), imagine what might happen if my clothes reeked of weed from sleeping there all night, and then maybe I left a jacket in the trunk of my car, and we called out the drug dog at school, and now all of a sudden the drug dog hits my car and I'm on KOMU News... "BREAKING, SUPERINTENDENT FOUND WITH WEED IN HIS TRUNK." LOL

I was just like, no I'm leaving. Keep the money. On my way out the door I said something like "this will probably cost you more than $95." I just meant bad news travels fast, and that eventually this kind of thing would catch up to his hotel. So I walked out the door and he said "You're messing with the wrong guy." U Turn. I went right back in, blood pressure somewhere around 1000 over 800.

I asked if he threatened me. He said something like "What are you going to do about it?" So that's when I started the Facebook Live feed and "The whole weed smells like the third floor" was born LOL.

WARNING: THIS GUY USES A LOT OF FOUL LANGUAGE. DEFINITELY RATED "R"

Now here at Just Win Today, we always try to put a positive spin on things. I'll admit, it's hard to find the positive in this situation. I mean, how many times do you get thrown out of a hotel for reporting weed on the third floor and not even get your money back? It's gonna be hard to spin this in a positive way, but I think I can do it.

Here at Just Win Today, we sponsor different things. Like I sponsor Nike. I repeat - I sponsor Nike shoes and gear. They don't sponsor me. They don't pay me anything or give me free stuff. I just like Nike and think their stuff is cool, so they're JWT approved. I sponsor them LOL.

So JWT is aout to start sponsoring hotels also. Now I know you're like WHAT??? You're going to sponsor Super 8? Heeeeccccccck no LOL. I'm sponsoring every other hotel in the country besides Super 8. So Red Roof Inn? Yes. Holliday Inn? Absolutely. Marriott? For sure. Motel 6? Please leave the light on for us.

But Super 8 could still bounce back from this. I just think they need to maybe think about some amenities to include for guests or maybe do some "re-branding." Here are some ideas:

Super 8, now free Wi-Fi AND a free contact high.

Super 8, now including free MMA training in case you need hand to hand combat to make it out of the lobby.

Super 8, the breakfast is complimentary, and we'll also cuss you out for free.

And a couple specifically for the one in Kennett...

Super 8 Kennett, the best hotel option in Kennett when the only other hotel option in Kennett is destroyed by a wind storm.

Super 8 Kennett, you were going to check out on time, but then you got high.

And my personal favorite, Super 8 Kennett, WHERE THE WHOLE WEED SMELLS LIKE THIRD FLOOR.

So as I finish typing this, and over 60,000 people have already watched the video, and Super 8 corporate has already contacted me... I clearly messed with the wrong guy.

Still undefeated. #JWT
