Summary

Product placement

Wimbledon: Wimbledon is a tennis tournament that is bringing its grass courts to Central Park. This is incidental, as it is the subject of the video, but not a product being sold. Removing it would change what happens in the video. UBS: This is a logo that appears on screen. It is incidental and removing it would not change what happens in the video.

Transcript

So, Wimbledon just opened up a grass court in Central Park to get a reservation, it was through a lottery and I did not get a slot. So, if you got a slot and you need someone to hit with, this is my application. This court looks so cool. I need to hit on it. I'm really nice and I like to hang out with people. Second, I'm average at tennis. I played D-Man in college. You can watch some of my hitting videos. I also coach a little bit on the side. So, if you need tips, happy to give you some tips. Then third, I will bribe you with coffee or any of the tennis PR I have in the house. I have like grips and strings and just a bunch of random stuff and I will give it to you. I'll end my shamful begging now, but bye. I'll see you guys later.
