Steve Cohen: A Portrait in Courage

So last night the Cyclones front office staff took a field trip of sorts to the American Cancer Society's Pink & Black Tie Gala.  It was a great event that raised a ton of money in the fight against cancer.  It was also a special evening because one of the honorees at the dinner was our very own General Manager, Steve Cohen.  The ACS honored Steve and the Cyclones for their efforts in giving back to the community through initiatives like the Take Your Base Walk and this year's Big Pitch.  After a stirring speech in which Steve channeled his inner Eva Peron (Not to be confused with Gary Perone), the ACS gave Steve a plaque and very well done portrait of himself to commemorate the occasion.

So this morning when everyone arrived in the office, in place of one of the photos of a former Cyclone that hangs throughout the office we were treated to this:



As you can imagine Steve's choice in artwork has been the talk of the office this morning (mostly because its eyes follow you wherever you go).  It's even given us some inspiration for other artistic expression around the office:
