Sam needs to wear the award around his neck at the Sessa Sayonara Box Social.
Sam, et al: when are we having that?

If the award ain't no medallion it ain't no award. The only probs is that it might clash with Sessa's EGOT medallion.

I was thinking of getting breast implants to highlight my medallions. Cleavage = medallion motorboat!
