This video really just sent home how much of an asset LS George is.. His overall personality and energy are priceless and add so much to any video.

I honestly didn't think of it until I saw your comment but you are 100% correct. Now I'm sitting here imagining the way George would have reacted to the absolute ridiculousness of the street wheelies. Obviously Cleetus recognizes talent and LS George was obviously not seeing his full potential at his prior job. Personality like that needs to be allowed to blossom and we're all the benefactors.
