In my brand new stadium in Buffalo, the owner is losing his mind, trying to get my player to advertise a giant life-size chocolate chip cookie. While this life-sized cookie is a gimmick oriented towards selling new chocolate chip cookies at the arena, the owner wanted me to go out on the ice dressed in a chocolate chip cookie costume. Quite frankly, I thought it was downright humiliating, so I refused to do it. However, the owner was not very pleased with that. Resulting from my inaction, the owner called me into his office, and proceeded to scream at me for 20 minutes. Fuming inside, I just sat there and frowned at him but I didn’t express my frustration verbally. I want to the GM and talked to him, telling him that I would like to be treated if the owner continued his shenanigans. That got the ball ball rolling. Unwilling to lose a young player for almost nothing, the owner called me back into his office, a few days later, and apologized for his actions stating that they were unprofessional, and that we would be scrapping the promotion. However, to replace the lack of an on-ice presence, the team decided to create an animated, chocolate chip cookie that would play on the video board during TV timeouts.  Ultimately this proved to be a success - the arena concessions sold more chocolate chip cookies and I didn’t have to wear an embarrassing costume on the ice. Problem solved.
