The closest I have installed for is Ben Roethlisberger's grandma. Does *D have an elite crew who do famous people? Who do famous people call to order D*?

Interesting question. I am interested to see if there is a legit answer.
However, you must be one bored puppy tonight. :) ;) :p

Not really bored. I just have an inquiring mind.

My buddy did an upgrade at Brett Hart home.
I did a few people you probably never heard of.

I QC'd a job that one of my techs did for Roy Jones Jr. Unfortunately, he wasn't home when I went out there. :(

I installed for an Epic Records executive once. Installed Kevin Mench's dad too. His dad was my high school principal so it wasn't as cool as you might think. lol

I installed my daughter's system; for whatever reason she thinks I'm special, Does that count ? lol
I delivered a refrigerator to Kevin Garnett's Mom once. This was right before he got his mega-million dollar contract. :)

If they have the Titanium package I think there is a special group, but if not it is just regular installers like everyone else.

I installed DTV in one of Linda Carter's homes (Wonder Women). Only her personal rep was there. She got the TCP Pkg.
Not really bored. I just have an inquiring mind.
Then you must have a five year subscription to the Enquirer?:D

In our HSP we have a 'special projects unit' who deals with VIP cases.

bet those people don't ask about the "free" install
A lot of "celebrity" systems are installed by Home Theater companies. The guys that did my last job had done a lot of star's home in South Beach and Hollywood.
They didn't do all that great a job and I think have since gone out of business.

Did they tip good?
I heard an Ironwood guy showed up at OJ's house and didn't make it home...

nope, they sometimes will get 5+ HD combo's and such. The special project guys also don't get payed per job and can take as long as it needs to get the job done. They charge about 80 an hour for custom work.
