Dispatch

NBA projector info and a fun story about a time I mistakenly showed inappropriate content on a wall from a film projector.

Every day at work, I deal with large projectors, teaching people how to use them. My guess would be the NBA game shown on the wall was probably like a 20,000 to 30,000 Lumen projector. Those are pretty expensive. They can be upwards and over a fifty thousand dollars up to $100,000 a piece plus lensing, you can get expensive but that's why you rent them from companies like I work for. However, when I lived in Orlando about 25 years ago, I did something really similar. I got into buying 8 millimeter movies, like old school film, 8 millimeter films off of eBay and um, you you buy cartoons, Woody Woodpecker, Looney Tunes, all that kind of stuff, old news, reels. And so, 1 day, there was a handball court. I decided to project an old news reel on it just because it was fun. And out of nowhere, comes like 3 families from the apartment complex, with all these kids and the news reel that's playing was of the film of Neato Mussolini being executed and then hung upside down and then he and his wife's body being drugged, through the streets of Italy. So you got to know who's going to be watching your content when you do that, I guess.
