Whatever happened to the meet and greet?

You can say that again. What a clusterfuck that evening was. In any other setting it would have been a good time. Where we were set up, not so much. I haven't been so nervous in a long time.

I sense that at least around here anyway,...the practice has come and gone

I think that the people who arranged them have pretty much decided that they are not worth the time or effort (or risk).

However I think that the OP was talking about a different kind of M&G anyway, so it doesn't matter.

I don't see what's so odd about Wildbilly's points. But I can see how without paying for the time all a girl might get done is interview all day. So I wouldn't have a problem with a reasonable meet and greet fee, and I can see how some guys might want to just do that anyway. It's kind of the same concept at a strip club as paying the dancer you like to spend time and talk. Consider it a fee for relaxation therapy.

Thanks everyone for the input. Holly I wish I was in KC sometimes. We have some very sweet girls in Wichita, but you know the grass is always greener.....
Bart, I agree and fully understand that girls could end up doing nothing but interviews. I believe in taking care of the financial needs as well and I do, but that's more of a topic that I would discuss over coffee too.
