Oscar Goodie Bag For Those Who Just Weren't Good Enough
While an Oscar is the most coveted award in Hollywood, even the nominees who don’t win go home with what is called a “swag bag.” A Los Angeles marketing firm awards every nominee with a gift bag of goodies worth upwards of $45,000, which includes vacations to Hawaii and Mexico, VIP service at London Heathrow airport, condoms, tequila and personal training sessions (because even Hollywood’s A–listers binge eat after a highly publicized rejection). Though Penn doesn’t have its own Academy Awards, we decided to join in on the fun and create our own swag bag of goodies. 1. All expenses paid weekend in New York City. Includes two Acela round trip tickets to the Big Apple with a Friday–Sunday stay at the Trump SoHo New York hotel because downtown is so in–the–scene right now. 2. Turn the rage you feel at being snubbed into some killer abs with five free group exercise classes at Pottruck. We recommend Body Combat. 3. VIP service at Van Pelt during finals week.
