You embraced the suit and sneakers, uh, phenomenon tonight. I got I got the memo. Can we you got the memo? Can we pan down to those sneaks? Now let me ask you, if you had to choose either suits or sneakers being like super casual dressed up, what would you prefer?
You know what? I love putting on a suit. You know what? But the the older I've gotten and the more wear and tear I put on my body, I actually wear sneakers with my suits all the time anyway.
Do you really? So you this is your event. You own this event.
Yes, I do. No, I own it, man. I I embrace it. I love with the wine. Exactly, exactly. So anytime you see me in a suit nowadays, I have on some sort of sneakers.
Got it. You talk about wear and tear on your body. It's it's like something like you're so young, but it's like something that, you know, you guys have to think about. I know exactly what you're talking about by the way, because I have to wear heels and dresses. I know I know you know exactly what I'm talking about.
Uh, but yeah, I played I played the game for a long time. And uh, you know, like I said, your your body, your feet, everything, it takes a beating. And so you try to be as comfortable as possible. So a suits and sneakers party. Suits and sneakers party. It's perfect for me.
