Tim vs. Eric in the battle for the Mayor of Masa
Masa of Echo Park is one of the great neighborhood establishments, where everyone knows your name (we’ve been going since 2005, before they even had a beer and wine!). And the hubby and I aren’t the only ones who frequent the bar stools at Masa, but our view is always the same – two framed photos on one of the pillars, one donning a blue ribbon with the title of “The Mayor.” I recently asked owner Rhonda about it because we kept seeing one of the guys at a neighboring stool, but she also published a great FAQ about the photos in the August Masa Newsletter
The two photos are of Tim and Eric (not related to the Tim & Eric Awesome Show) – two locals who frequent Masa on a daily basis and who were “checking in” on Foursquare. If you’re unfamiliar with the popular mobile app, it unlocks special deals if you check in enough at a participating venue along with the title of Mayor. The two Masa goers keep checking in on Foursquare, one usurping the other, a battle that’s been going on since 2009.
- The Mayor of Echo Park was Tim that day
So Rhonda put up the framed photos and changes the blue ribbon when the Mayorship changes. Most of the time you’ll find the ribbon alongside Tim’s image, as Eric no longer lives directly across the street. But you will occasionally see them dining next to each other at the bar, as the rival is a friendly one!
What’s their favorite thing about going to Masa?
For Eric, “the reason to keep coming back was because of the people working here. Masa is my ‘Cheers’ and was an important part of me feeling settled in Los Angeles.”
For Tim, “I was drawn to Masa because of the good food. I kept coming because of the inclusive and friendly atmosphere. I like to eat at places where people like to see me.”
We, of course, like supporting as many local businesses as possible. What’s your reason to go to Masa, or any other favorite spots in Echo Park?

The simple story about CBD is that there is no simple story about CBD. Though CBD is a non-psychoactive chemical derived from cannabis or hemp that won’t get people or animals high like tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), it still falls into both a medical and bureaucratic black hole where it can be nearly impossible to extract definitive information.
Pretty! This has been an extremely wonderful article. Thanks for providing this information.

Hola Mike, gracias por comentar este post. Oímos hablar de flujos de ingresos residuales pero no estamos seguros de cómo empezar. Yo era uno de ellos. Mi objetivo, con este post, era hacerlo simple para que la gente pueda hacerse una idea y empezar a ganar dinero mientras duerme.
He considerado usar la publicidad de Youtube para mi negocio, sin embargo no estaba seguro de cómo empezar exactamente. Gracias por compartir esto conmigo ya que tendré que leer más sobre ello, ya que parece haber mucho potencial con los millones de personas que utilizan la plataforma.Sólo una pregunta rápida, ¿recomendarías cualquier otro tipo de publicidad como los anuncios de google/bing?
I think one of your advertisings triggered my browser to resize, you may well want to put that on your blacklist.
