the country’s best. The event featured competitions such as Key Jumble, Slalom & Luggage Load Relay, Individual Maneuvering and Valet Relay to measure the skills of more than 10 companies. TownePark brought home the gold at the second annual event, at the association’s conference in Fort Lauderdale inMarch. Whether it’s body odor or bodily fluids, parking is defi-
nitely getting negative exposure from“MadMen” – or is it? Actor Hamm has garnered worldwide recognition for
his breakthrough role as former valet parking attendant Draper, receiving an Emmy, a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award. In that role, he has become an interna- tional sex symbol. To top it off, in 2009, the character Don Draper was
named the most influential man in the world by
AskMen.com, ahead of both President Obama and Face- book’sMark Zuckerberg. The point is this:Whatever “Don Draper” does or says
has influence. And when he tells the world he began his working career in the parking industry, Parkingmeans some- thing. On the other hand, when “Draper” tells the world that he relieved his bladder in the trunk of a customer’s vehicle, Parking takes a hit. Pop Culturewins this one.
