When the Bullets Stopped Flying, Alcoholic "Journalist" Karens Focused On What Really Matters, and Looted 147 Wine Bottles from the Venue

Incredible. Give yourselves all a media award for Stunning Bravery.


Peter Girnus 🦅
@gothburz

I am a senior coordinating producer for the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. I have worked eleven of these. I was backstage at the Washington Hilton when the shots were fired.

The first thing I heard was not the gunfire. It was glass.

A champagne flute hit the floor of the International Ballroom at approximately 9:47 PM. Then a second. Then the sound that I have since been told was a 12-gauge shotgun, which from inside the ballroom sounded like a heavy door slamming in a parking garage. Then the Secret Service moved. They moved the President, the Vice President, the First Lady through the east corridor in under ninety seconds, which is protocol, which is practiced, which is the one part of the evening that worked exactly as it was designed.

Everything else was improvised.

I know this because I ordered the wine. 94 tables. Two bottles per table. 188 bottles of a Willamette Valley pinot noir that the Association selected in February after a tasting committee spent three meetings debating between Oregon and Burgundy. Oregon won. The budget was $14,200. I signed the invoice. I can tell you the vintage. I can tell you the distributor. I can tell you the per-bottle cost because I negotiated it down from $89 to $76.

What I cannot tell you is how 147 of those bottles left the building during an active shooter evacuation.

I can tell you what I saw. A correspondent from a network I will not name picked up two bottles on her way to the east exit. Full bottles. One in each hand. She was wearing heels and she did not spill. A man in a tuxedo tucked one inside his jacket the way you'd shoplift a paperback at an airport bookstore. A woman picked up a bottle, looked at the label, put it back, and took a different one.

She checked the vintage. During an evacuation. That's editorial judgment under pressure.

The theme of the dinner was "A Free Press for a Free People." The banners were still hanging when the evacuation began. I know because I hung them. Twenty-three banners, navy blue, gold serif lettering, $11,400 for the set. They were still hanging when 2,600 guests were directed to the exits by Secret Service agents, one of whom had just taken a shotgun round in his ballistic vest and walked to the ambulance on his own feet.

The agent's vest costs approximately $800. The wine that left the building was worth $11,172 at Association cost. At restaurant markup, roughly $29,000. The guests saved more in wine than the vest that saved the agent.

That's priority.

The video went viral by 10:15 PM. Not the video of the evacuation. Not the Secret Service response. The wine. Three guests in formalwear grabbing bottles off white tablecloths while being told to move toward the exits, while a man with a shotgun stood in the same motor entrance where John Hinckley shot Ronald Reagan 45 years ago.

A woman near the service entrance was crying. She said "I just wanna go home." She was not holding wine. She was holding her phone. She was the only person I saw that night who looked afraid rather than inconvenienced.

That's the distinction. The rest of the ballroom did not look afraid. They looked interrupted. An active shooter at the WHCD is a logistical problem. The dinner was disrupted. The timeline was off. The after-party at the French Ambassador's residence would need to be rescheduled. These are contingency matters. Contingency matters have solutions. Fear is for people who attend events without security details.

I have produced eleven of these dinners. I have managed seating charts that require diplomatic-grade negotiations. I have handled comedians, cabinet secretaries, network anchors, and the editor of a major newspaper who once threatened to leave because his table was behind a column.

I have never, in eleven years, seen a guest leave a $76 bottle on the table during an evacuation. I have also never seen a guest check the label first. Both observations are consistent. The bottle is worth taking. The evacuation is worth surviving. The instinct is to do both simultaneously.

188 bottles placed. 41 recovered. 147 unaccounted for. One agent shot. Zero guests injured. Zero bottles broken.

A free press for a free people. The press is free. The wine was $76 a bottle. They took it anyway.

43 Huge fight leading to guns drawn at this absolutely trashy wedding and reception I went to in WV. Nonetheless, there was a few halfway decent bottles of Chianti at the open bar (for some reason). Nicked one and dipped, drank it in my hotel room.

There are a lot of things for which I would look down on someone in attendance at that event. Swiping the wine is not one of them.

Just surprised they didn't try to serve that ridiculous Trump wine

Journalists are known for wearing fur coats as opposed to the Maga-royals. /s

I saw this article before and was wondering why it made the news. Who cares if someone took a bottle or two off the table when the event was effectively over?

If you consider the source, it’s merely yet another weak attempt to paint “fake news media” as thieving scoundrels because everyone knows journalists are “librul”.

They apparently had Wente Morning Fog Chardonnay and Columbia Crest Cab Sav from Horse Heaven Hills. They’re passable wines for under $10 but I just do not see a reason to take cheap wine home with me. I’ll drink it if that’s what is there for dinner, but it’s not worth carrying even to a room.

Andrew Dezelan of Fishers was arrested on Sunday night in Fishers after a resident reported him to police for soliciting. He is currently being held in Hamilton County Jail on preliminary charges of possession of cocaine, a Level 6 felony, and resisting law enforcement, a misdemeanor.

Posted by: Jack Squat Bupkis

Went to see the Adam West Batman movie in college. (They were always showing old movies somewhere on the Michigan campus in the 80s.) Batman is trying to dispose of a humorously big bomb with a lit fuse by throwing it off a boat into the water, but everywhere he looks there's someone there (including a family of ducks), so he can't throw the bomb. ("Somedays you just can't rid of a bomb," he remarks, drily.) One of the parties that he doesn't want to drop the bomb on is a bunch of guys sitting on a pier drinking.

Robin says to Batman something like, "Why do care what happens to them? They're just a bunch of dirty drunks!"

"Yes, they're drunks," Batman responds. "But they're also human beings."

The whole auditorium of drunk college kids responded in applause and shouts of "All right, Batman!"

Good times.

1 hour(2-3 drinks in) beginning a nice drinking buzz , must of been a major bummer to have the bar closed at that point. the drinking pros are now only focused on thier next drink. so yea, its easy spot the pros who are now tipping the bottle and stashing them for the trip to the next -open- bar.

The same people who told us a year ago that $8 for a dozen eggs was an indictment of the cruelty of Trump, don't even blink at paying $80 for a bottle of wine.

They're currently pissing and moaning about Trump sealing the Reflection Pool with "American Flag" blue swimming pool style sealant.

See, Trump was supposed to spend $100+ million and years to bribe, er "fix" it per the bids under Biden.

Instead, he spent $3 million and it's almost done.

It will be some time before she gets another one, and she'll have to get her own insurance as we're likely removing her from our policies. If we're not forced to anyway.

I do plan to hopefully make it to the NoVaMoMe in the future, so maybe it would be possible to meet.

This lunatic isn’t “senior coordinating producer” of anything, much less anything related to the WHCA. No part of this is true - including the timing of events he couldn’t even manage to get right in fabricating this BS

The suspect did not fall within any "loophole." By all accounts he passed background checks when he purchased his guns in California, i.e., the state with some of the strictest gun laws in the country.
He purchased a handgun and a pump shotgun, not the scary "assault weapons" California bans.

Night Train Express
Don't let the 0.5% less alcohol by volume compared to Cisco fool you, the Night Train is all business when it pulls into the station. All aboard to nowhere - woo wooo! The night train runs only one route: sober to stupid with no roundtrip tickets available, and a strong likelihood of a train wreck along the way.

The bottles are too small and that is why I have to drink three bottles at a time....

So what if I walked in with empty plastic bags and left with 5 full ones ????

376 I have been to quite a few upscale events in my life and it never ceases to amaze me what women will take off of a table or display at a beautiful venue. Things that were obviously were not meant to be taken but were part of the decor but also food, wine, booze, etc. that were not meant to go home in a doggy bag. I have yet to see a man do this.

Frank Hamer used a 38 Super to gun down Bonnie and Clyde. He chose it over his favorite 1911 because the super has better penetration.
