Today I had a business idea -- or, it might be a business idea if more than a dozen of us would be interested in it, and if it could be done affordably.
I call it "The Magnum Experience," and it is something like a cross between Michael Douglass's character's experience in "The Game" and an escape room. The idea is that you get to stay at a B&B style place on the coast of Hawaii. You have a case to solve, and you do that by interacting with a couple of guys who run a bar and who run a helicopter tour business. You get to drive a Ferrari, wear a Rolex GMT, and you get to wear and keep a shirt and a hat of your choice -- from the wardrobe of course.
I would absolutely love to do this, if it was at all workable.

Love it. It would be pretty awesome. The biggest problems I can see are number of customers willing to pay for this (we're a dying breed) and liability. You Americans like your lawsuits!

Re: The Magnum Experience
You could name it the "Miggy Experience", slightly alter the business concept to focus on building romantic relationships and draw the fan base of the new show.Styles Bitchley wrote: ↑Fri Sep 03, 2021 2:23 pm Love it.

Re: The Magnum Experience
Reminds me of The Great Hawaiian Adventure Company. That went well…

Re: The Magnum Experience
This is a great idea... I'm in.
The only thing needed and I think it's a go is proof of vaccination, an n95 mask, a consent form stating you stay atleast 6 feet apart at all times, and no one talks out loud.
