Shark Tank host Barbara Corcoran flirts with cattle rancher contestant, invests $100K: For you, baby

‘Shark Tank’ host Barbara Corcoran was lassoed by a cattle rancher’s charm on Friday’s episode of ‘Shark Tank’, telling the tech entrepreneur “My first boyfriend looked just like you, he was a cowboy,” before investing $100,000 in his product. Sporting a bright pink coat, a cowboy hat and boots, contestant Smith Baggett made a pitch for his product, a flamingGO Charger that’s aimed at rural customers looking to keep multiple devices charged through the day, from mobile phones to e-cigarettes. “I’d like 25% for the $100,000,” a starry-eyed Corcoran gushed on the show.“Honestly I’d do it for 20% but I’m supposed to act like a shark.

But for you baby I’m not a shark, I’m like a guppy in your arms.”Baggett further connected with Corcoran, telling her that “I was gonna tell you the next time I see you it will be in my dreams when I go to bed at night,” to which ‘Shark Tank’ investor Robert Herjavec yelled “Get a room!”After negotiating and sealing the business deal, Baggett hugged and picked Corcoran up out of her seat, spun her around, before embracing in a hug to celebrate their new business deal. While the cattle rancher received only one offer from the sharks, ‘Shark Tank’s’ Kevin O’ Leary said Baggett was one of the “most entertaining presentations in 16 years.” Mark Cuban agreed. Added Corcoran: “He’s built a great business and has the grit, hustle, and enthusiasm it takes to turn flaminGO into a household name.I couldn’t resist saddling up with Smith on this ride! He’s a real winner,” Corcoran said. While on his tractor bailing hay in Georgia, Baggett formulated the idea for flaminGo Chargers after finding his phone dead frequently and wanting better portable charging options. FlaminGo Charger’s come pre-charged, offering a 3-in-1 charging box sized at 2 inches by 2 inches.
