Ned's Club Is Raising Its Dues. It Might Want to Learn to BCC First.
Plus: $900 professional parade spot-holders, Wall Street's work-from-home exception, and why Boston will be partying two hours later than Nantucket this summer...
If you haven’t heard a single peep about my party in the last week, congratulations — you live under a rock. Or at the very least, don’t follow me or ReadRPS on Instagram. I have become exactly the kind of person I hate: the kind that drones on and on about one topic, and that topic happens to be the first RPS party.
But you’re going to have to forgive me, because it really was that good. Words like “epic” and “best ever” and “glamorous” were being thrown around. And if that wasn’t enough, people started writing about it — before the thing was even over. So I’m going to need a pass on this one. It’s like expecting a Volvo and getting a vintage Ferrari. You knew it was going to be good. Just not that good.
Which is why I was planning on giving you a full debrief today. But then some news came up. So you’ll be getting the party analysis later this week, and today, you’ll be getting the story of how Ned’s Club, the private membership club arm of The Ned hotel brand, emailed their members about raising their annual dues and accidentally forgot to CC everyone. That’s right. The email blasts, which were sent May 22nd and continued today, went to a hundred members at a time. RPS has the details below.
Also in this issue: the NBA Finals' hottest collectible, $900 professional parade spot-holders, Wall Street's work-from-home exception, Southampton embraces giant public sports screenings, BLADE's 8-minute U.S. Open helicopter shuttle, a rare look inside Glenn and Amanda Fuhrman's private art collection, and why Boston will be partying two hours later than Nantucket this summer….
