411 on Derrick Vinyard

[Muscle Lover 2]

A couple of older posts that might have been about this guy, but little real information, so will try again. Advertising on RB for Tampa and inquiring minds not just want to know, but need to know!

Hi!

Bumping this up in the hope that someone has engaged this fellow.

Heading to Tampa later this fall and would be interested if he is as accommodating as his pics are enticing.

It seems as though some very old threads might (or might not) be about him ... wanting to see if anyone has recent 411 ... given the oft-stated dearth of available men in Tampa.

Thanks for any info anyone can offer!

I haven't met him, but we corresponded years ago. I have vague memories that online articles or online gossip said he was straight and married. If the ad I responded to wasn't fake, he was living in NYC years ago. We had a nice conversation initially. I had been interested in having him visit me for a weekend. He seemed interested until I told him I was a top. But this was all years ago- probably sometime between 2003-2007. He definitely could have reconsidered what he is willing to do with clients since then. And the more I think about it, he may have been one of the 1st escorts to offer taking a 'selfie' (it of course wasn't called that back then) with a current newspaper.

 

I noticed something after that contact that he had quit advertising. I didn't even know he was running ads anymore. I always wondered if he would have been fun to be with. If your communication with him goes well, Shadowcatzxxx, and you end up hiring him, I hope the meeting goes great!!!

Haven't hired him, but have seen him on several occasions playing pool in a gay club in Tampa on the weekends. Can say that the photos in his ad are accurate (sometimes plays shirtless).

Dekim: Those photos are accurate/current? I like his look when he's lean, but have seen some stuff on the web showing a straight-boy beer-belly ... if he's lean as he is in his ad, I'm ready to check him out. Can you (or anyone else) confirm here or by PM? Thanks

Ask him for a selfie.

shadowcatzxxx: I have seen him bigger when he danced at the club in the last year or two, but definitely no beer belly now. He's usually playing pool in a tight fitting t-shirt or tank top & then occasionally takes his shirt off.

thanks ... I'll investigate further!
