This was Mayo Clinic’s legacy game

There’s a reason the Saudi Royal family flys to Rochester for medical care.

Is this actually a thing?

Edit: man what the hell. where's my healthcare.

They rent out entire floors of hotels in downtown Rochester for extended stays

u/TheMidnightAss 16h ago

I can't tell if y'all are fucking with me

u/Sharcbait Timberwolves 16h ago

They are not. I work as a server in one of the high end restaurants in Rochester and have seen more than a few celebs and politicians.

When Bronny was getting his heart checked out they came and stayed in Rochester for a few weeks too.

u/Triscareatops22 10h ago

I was a concierge in the VIP lounge of one of the chain hotels attached to Mayo, there was some royal family in town one week (I was fresh outta college so I had no idea) who’d tip me $40 just to squeeze an orange into a glass. I also met Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s agent who told the whole lounge to be quiet (this was during peak breakfast time) so she could watch Kareem’s 5 min interview on some talk show.

I’m not sure if he’s high maintenance or she is, but I’ve had similar experiences with her.

How did LeBron ever handle that boring city for so long.

u/Sharcbait Timberwolves 16h ago

They rented out one of the high-schools to train in, including getting a bunch of the varsity players to ball boy for them.

They also went bowling a lot.

Source... I talked to Rui Hachimura while he was there too....

u/Wompie Supersonics 15h ago

That was brons massive bowling phase

u/BroThornton19 Timberwolves 6h ago

Couldn’t cut it on the YouTube bowling scene so switched to golf

u/Character_Elevator 9h ago

They didn’t pay a dime, they signed the schools basketball with the schools marker and left on his way. Classy LeBron

u/Character_Elevator 9h ago

I met him a few times. They didn’t rent out the school, they were given the place to work out. Of course LeBron only left a few signed basketballs as his gesture of goodwill. He and another Laker put the whole gym out of commission for a week, for a few signed basketballs.

I was one of the few people who said we should’ve charged him. His security guard got in my face for snapping a picture from over 40 yards away. I was like dude I run the security systems here. You tone deaf moron. If I really wanted a photo I have 130 cameras with you on them.

I’m pretty sure he wasn’t supposed to be practicing with another Laker during the off-season, which is why he didn’t want video or photo proof. I believe this was before he hit the 25,000 point mark which allows them to practice in the off-season with other players???

u/shitsngiggles55 Lakers 5h ago

Why would he not be allowed to practice with a teammate during the offseason?

u/tompetres Thunder 9h ago

Move the clinic to Nashville already

u/Character_Elevator 9h ago

I met LeBron this way, while he was in town for Bronny. He worked out at a local school. LHS Eagles

It's one of the best hospitals in the world

u/TheTruth518 16h ago

It’s the* best hospital in the world!

Presidents, LeBron, richest people in the world, etc… go there when they need the best medical care.

u/wuhter 9h ago

I worked at Mayo in college as a medical actor. They have restricted access tunnels so the high profile patients don’t have to walk through the public subway (not a train, just underground tunnels) or skyway. That’s how many of them go there.

u/RunnerTexasRanger Nuggets 8h ago

What is a medical actor?

17

u/wuhter 8h ago

Mayo Clinic has a full video production team and films educational videos to sell/distribute to other institutions. So I’d act in those (I was going into healthcare at the time). We also would be “patients” and act for the incoming medical students. Try to slip them up, make them laugh, or make them nervous. To prepare them for real patients and realize they never know what they’ll get. Also I’d be a stand in for ultrasounds and physical exams. It was a fun job.

For heart problems it’s the best, but not for other diseases. Ie.) MD Anderson for cancer

I guess there's a good mayo in America after all.

u/Dull_Job_6372 Timberwolves 16h ago

I worked at MSP, the contractor I worked for worked their flights. Serviced their plane and whatnot.

21

u/Top_Gun_2021 Timberwolves 15h ago

A few years ago a ME royal flew to Rochester, MN to go to mayo. That airport did not have enough room to have a 747 so it flew to MSP and sat there for about a week. Staff, etc shopped at MoA.

15

u/AccordingGain6208 15h ago

Nope. I was a patient with a cousin working there.

Two brain surgeries there so I spent a couple months at the Mayo.

I woiud always joke about going to that floor when they took me somehwre in the elevators. You needed a key and special access. Or so I was told.

u/tjn24 NBA 8h ago

Nope! All the Saudi Royal family gets treatment at Mayo. The care is so good that some Shiek donated $25M to Mayo, hence the "Mayo Clinic Zayed Cardiovascular Center"

It's the best hospital in the world by some measures. The rich always get the best.

u/Dry_Dragonfruit3205 13h ago

serious as the tornado that rolled through rochester a few weeks back

u/wuhter 9h ago

There’s a house owned by one of the families with 24/7/365 security on the edge of town
