Lightning Strike

May 7, 2022

Rich Strike was officially entered in the 2022 Kentucky Derby with just five minutes to spare, but wound up winning big as an 80-1 longshot, scoring the second-biggest upset in Derby history. So, who's the bigger winner: our founder, Nigel, who was on hand at Churchill Downs to see it happen; or our videographer, Lucas, who pulled Rich Strike out of a hat in our office draw on Friday afternoon? You be the judge.

Wei, Kyoko, and Ahsoka Visit the Brooklyn Bridge

Tennessee, the Volunteer State

April 18, 2022

If those three stars look familiar, there's a good chance you recognize them from the courtroom scene in Animal House, which means that you might be wondering why this patch Nigel found says "Tennessee," when Animal House takes place in Pennsylvania. Here's why: the film was shot on the campus of the University of Oregon, and while a suitably sized Pennsylvania flag couldn't be found, the Oregon flag was also ruled out because it includes the words "STATE OF OREGON." The set director chose the most generic flag he could find, which turned out to be Tennessee's. In case you're wondering, the three stars represent the three "Grand Divisions" of the state - East, Middle, and West Tennessee - and the blue circle represents the unity of those regions.

That's Nice, Kentucky Office?

April 13, 2022

That's Nice founder Nigel took a timeout from meeting clients in the American south to check out a location for a possible That's Nice satellite office. The structure is impressive, but if those chairs are any indication, some new office furniture *may* be in order...

Blast From the Past

April 13, 2022

Rail Car Graphics

City of Corbin, Star of Kentucky

April 9, 2022

Business travel has brought our founder, Nigel, through Corbin, Kentucky, the birthplace of Kentucky Fried Chicken. More than 75 years after Colonel Harland Sanders started his business, we know the brand best as KFC, but the image of Colonel Sanders on the chain's restaurants and packaging is as iconic as ever. Few global brands are able to achieve this milestone.

Wei's Monday Morning

April 4, 2022
