Buffalo Solider
My best friend is getting married in Jamaica in May and my other friend and I are the only two guys standing up in the wedding. Well, I’m booked and nearly all paid, but my other friend, that’s a different story, he doesn’t even have his passport yet. My best friend and I have decided to do things to encourage him to get his passport and get booked. At this point he still has plenty of time to get his passport. But, he does not have plenty of time for there to be problems with the passport and still expect to get it sorted out before the trip. So far this is what we have done:
- I purposely bought him a Bob Marley shirt that I knew would be too small on him. My plan was to sneak in his car and leave it hanging from his rear view mirror. When I opened his beat up car, I noticed that he didn’t even have a rear view mirror. So I had to leave it on his steering wheel.
- We left a jar of Jamaican jerk spice in his car.
- A couple of weeks ago he left his coat at another friends house. This weekend I’m going to pick the coat up and not give it back to him until he gets his passport.
- I also might leave some empty bottle of Red Stripe on his porch and perhaps a Jamaican flag hung to his garage door.
I’m open to other ideas if anybody has any.

Plan the wedding without him.
Sounds like he can’t afford the trip or passport fee. Or doesn’t want to use vacation time to go to a wedding.
You can just lock him in a closet, play Buffalo Soldier over and over until he cracks. LOL
Tell him you’re taking him to lunch and then go to the Passport place….but i guess he would have to have certain documents on him, so he’d have to know what you’re doing. It’s not that hard…he needs to stop procrastinating!!
he is just a procrastinator. His wife is pestering him about it too.
