Crew Profile: Sam Johnson
November 26, 2008
In a crew full of unique guys, Sam distinguishes himself as one of the goofiest.
He has a lanky body…
dresses like an extra from The Wire…
and often looks like he just woke up.
He looks this way because it’s often true.
However, Sam also plunges head-first into every Darius Goes West activity.
He doesn’t have patience for anything but genuineness…
and Sam’s powerful integrity shows through to everyone, no matter how little time they spend with him.
That serves him well as a friend to Darius…
as Darius’s assistant in his computer work…
and as one of DGW’s many crowd favorites during question-and-answer sessions.
After this year, Sam will go back to the University of Georgia.
He’s not sure what he wants to major in, so if you have any suggestions, please share them!
Until then, he’s living it up with the rest of the crew, enjoying every new friend we make, every venue we visit, and every spoonful of wasabi we get offered.
“The coolest part of working for DGW for me is just being able to see all different kinds of people unify to help give Darius the legacy I feel like he deserves…
Of course, the food is good, too.”
That’s Sam!
Next up on the continuing series Darius Goes West: Crew Profiles is Dylan Wilson. Stay tuned!

Accompanied by eleven best friends, Darius Weems, a fifteen-year-old living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), leaves home for the first time in his life. The rowdy crew sets a course for California where they hope to convince MTV to customize Darius's wheelchair on the hit show, Pimp My Ride. Darius Goes West has been enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of people of all ages all around the world.
