On Season 13 of Shark Tank, family man Les Cookson, an entrepreneur from Lincoln, California, makes his second appearance in the Tank. In 2011, he pitched his CarSik Bib prototype, a bib for kids who are prone to get sick in the car, making clean up easier for parents and caregivers. It was a memorable presentation which had the Sharks hysterically laughing but, alas, did not lead to a deal.
As seen in the photo below, Cookson demonstrated the effectiveness of the “barf bag” by pouring a can of creamed corn into the head of a child-size dummy.
Eleven years later, Cookson is back in the Tank pitching his latest invention called The LUCY. The product (which comes with a photo projector) is designed to help anyone draw like a professional. “Set whatever you want to draw in front of the LUCY, look through the viewing window, and draw over the reflected image to start your masterpiece in minutes!”
According to a company press release, Les is more confident about his chances of landing a deal on Shark Tank this time around as he’s coming with millions in sales. He says: “We’ll see who’s laughing now.”
