Guy Fieri Given “Award Of Excellence”

Over the weekend, former UNLV student Guy Fieri was given an award from the University of Las Vegas.
(Sidebar: is that even a real school? Or is it just a group of drunk guys who sit around passing gas and playing poker all day?)
Guy was presented with the “Award Of Excellence” – an award which, apparently, demands very little of its recipients. Seriously, Las Vegas? Is your pool of graduates so untalented that you had to give this hollowed title to GUY FIERI? He didn’t cure cancer, or build schools for the poor. He hasn’t even so much as rescued a cat from a tree! The man shows up in a rented car, makes goofy faces into the camera, and shoves his face with greasy food while he watches real cooks fry things. If that’s considered “excellence,” then let me forever remain in my own shallow pool of mediocrity.
To make matters even worse, Guy Fieri showed up to accept his award of excellence wearing JEANS and a button-down over a wifebeater! Everyone else was in a suit/jacket, but this d-bag couldn’t even be bothered to make himself look presentable? What a class act. The epitome of “excellence” indeed.

HAHAHA. Looking like the bus driver .Classic.
Actually he starting to turn into America’s Favorite Bushpig.
As for this picture, the other guys look sort of scary as well. It looks like it has Mob connections.
Cracked up at your sidebar comment – hilarious! I, too, made the same judgement on his attire before I even got to your comment about it. It just goes to show you that the Food Network cares nothing about how their “stars” represent them (that’s both the network and themselves).
Classless jerk! He looks so damn bloated and fat like his skin is going to burst in his face and spew his junk all over everyone!
Really? He couldn’t be arsed to put on a pair of khakis and a jacket? Obviously this tells us that the award means fuck-all when the recipient isn’t taking it seriously enough to look presentable.
Hmmm. Perhaps he won the award for being excellent at sitting around farting and playing poker all day?
he looks like Colin Farrells lost cousin
It tells you something about the prestige of UNLV that they give out awards like that to two douchbags who majored in Hotel friggin’ Management.
Ferry’s wardrobe is appropriate for the importance of the occasion.
It looks like your Mr Fee-Etti has become one round little butterball. Guys like this do not have long life spans.
With that red spotlight on his nose, he looks like some passing bon vivant drunk who decided to push his way into the picture. Way to go. It’s really tough to pull the surfer dude look in the middle of the desert.
Hey, he took the sunglasses off – whadda ya want?
He didn’t take the sunglasses off – they’re still on the back of his head. You can see them in the other photos!
Nothing screams professional like a pair of Wal-Mart jeans and a Kohl’s shirt.
Did the airport loose his luggage?….
Guy deserves any award given to him. You idiots on here are just bitter about your own shallow lives
