Mike Anderson Day
February 23, 2009
A few years ago my friend asked me if I had ever heard of a kid named Mike Anderson.
I said I had, but was confused because my friend didn't skate, he
worked on movies. Turns out he was working on a movie with Mike's dad,
who also works on movies, and Mike's dad had asked, as any good dad
would, if my friend could maybe get me to look at Mike's footage. My
friend told him that I bet Mike would want to get that footage to me on
his own and that although it was good looking out for him, it would
probably be better if he left it up to Mike to make his bones. His dad
agreed. Or something like that. The point I'm trying to make is that it
didn't take long for the skateboard world to start to notice what a
stylish and one-of-a-kind skater Mike Anderson had grown into. It also
didn't take long before he was here at the Berrics. As a result of our
love for his skating weve decided that instead of giving him a Bangin! or a Recruit,
we'd just dedicate an entire day to him. So from here on out at the
Berrics, February 23rd is Mike Anderson day. Enjoy. Maybe soon you'll
have a day dedicated to you.
