Interested in possibly getting Ryan or Jeff to make an appearance at a function I have.  Do you guys think this is even possible and if so what sort of fee do you think would be resonable? 
 
If I paid airfare/hotel and $3,000 for the appearance fee do you think they would do it?  Do they have agents or just make the offer directly through email?   Thanks.
 
This is serious so please don't troll me.

Pro tip: if you don't want to get trolled, don't ask for it as explicitly as you just did.

How about you ask them directly instead of asking us, who have nothing to do professionally with Giant Bomb or even Whiskey Media?

If you are serious you would be better off sending them a private message, or sending Whiskey Media an email.

I think it depends entirely on what the event is. If it is a discussion of the games industry, maybe. If its your birthday I think you can forget about it.

Maybe if you gave some sort of info, rather than saying not to troll you, you might have gotten decent results.  
 
Also, wouldn't asking Ryan/Jeff yield better results than asking us weirdos?

So I should be more clear.  
 
I saved up for awhile for an HD tv I wanted, then I got my tax returns and have a little extra money.  So by "function" I just mean at my house and stuff.  I want to hang out with them for a weekend and stuff and play games.  
 
I can pay all their air and hotel and $3,000 for the weekend.

Do you guys think I can get Hardcore Dave to show up in Barcelona and take his shirt off to help celebrate my great-aunt's birthday if I give him his own private jet for the trip and an island in the South Pacific in return for his services?

I don't want to sound rude or anything, but I REALLY don't see that any of the GB staff would be interested in going to some stranger's house just because.....
Also, this is creepy, to be honest-- stalker-creepy, actually : /

That is the god damned creepiest thing. I don't think that anyone on the crew is so hard up for cash that they'll let you pay them to be your friend. 
Edit: Waiiiit a second. Aren't you the guy with the giantbomb fan club made up of your family members?

Fuck I'll come play games with you if you fly me out . I'll also put on weight, wear Communist Hockey jersey's, and talk about Commander 64 games too if you throw in some extra cash.

I think you need to go find the guy who tried starting a local Giant Bomb fan club in Florida a little while back. You two seem like you have a lot in common and could benefit from joining forces, you being the financial backer and he being the brains of the operation, since both of you essentially want the same thing.

@JJWeatherman: Honestly, I was too lazy to verify. If it is, I wouldn't be surprised at all. My suggestion still stands in that case, though. He'd just need a multiple personality disorder for it to work.

@JJWeatherman: Perhaps he is a double-agent from NeoGaf trying to make us look silly by having us all talk about how awesome it would be to hire two guys who talk about games for a living. 
 
In which case he is failing, and I salute my fellow bombers for their level-headedness.
