#ItsAPhillyThing: Birds fans found a way to hack the tailgate. The lots don’t open until 4pm for tonight’s game. BUT they open at 8am for the 1pm lacrosse game.
Birds fans bought Wings tickets just to tailgate for 12 hours instead of 4.

That the workaround for this is to lean on multiple of your friends to report the imposter is so frustrating, so lame, and so

Hey @mosseri — not sure what I’m supposed to do here and the Instagram reporting function is stunningly poor.
There’s someone pretending to be me. This has happened many times & it’s the same loop:
They use my profile pic and my name but the account name is off.

The most poisonous mindset I ever fell prey to as a CEO was being the victim. No team members, investors or customers will follow someone who sees shadows everywhere and thinks the world is out to get them. Own the situation, ask for help, be decisive, and lead everyone.
