I'm pretty stoked about this. Check out Weber's new home page and let me know if you happen to recognize the bald fool sprawled out across a large brown box.
The very nice folks at Weber's PR firm contacted me late last year and inquired about the photo. I believe it is being used elsewhere too, but this is the first I've seen of it.
I find it quite ironic, that out of all of the photos I've taken, they happen to use one Zoe took and I was in. Regardless, I'm humbled by the experience and even more happy it made my blog legitimate by making some money off of the capture. A very cool gesture by a company I happen to respect a lot.
In the end, the shot sums up the un-boxing day of the 650 and several years later, I still feel the same way.

That is so cool!
I feel the same way about my 650 - I just wish I had thought to take a picture of it.
Congratulations!
Very cool, congrats!
Way to go, Zoe! You, too, Mike!
and to think we knew you when!
great fun
@Mike - Thanks! I know exactly how you feel about your grills, it must be an Ohio thing!
@Andrew - Thanks! Wasn't Dave in one of their books once too?
@Ellen - Yes, she took the picture, but I risked my life by jumping on the box@
@AYOTG - Ha...yes, my thumbnail moment of "infamy"!
This, like everyone has said, is very cool! Congrats!
Congrats!!! I find the picture ;-)this is so cool....
Yeah, I think Dave was in one of their commercials or something; I'll have to ask him.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. I thought that was the best pic ever. Few could understand this kind of affection. Very cool.
