Message: [QUOTE="BrookhavenCuse, post: 286863, member: 1791"] [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]I’ve had too many experiences with bumping into someone famous or infamous, as would be the case when you fly well over 100k miles a year in and out of the ATL. It was a few summers ago and was doing the DCA to ATL end of the day commute. If anyone is familiar with the DCA/ATL route you are always bound to get the occasional politician or high level government official, well on this particular day who shows up but JT III. [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]I figured he would be in first class but that was not the case, so I get on when zone 1 is called (no upgrade) and didn't really think much about JT III. Well about 5 or 10 minutes later who comes strolling up the aisle and sits right next to me in the middle seat (I had the window), yep JT III. I had the noise canceling headphones on so I didn’t even really acknowledge him nor did I care too. An hour or so later the pilot announces we are making the initial approach to Atlanta and all the blah blah blah. I had not said a word to him the entire flight so I turned to JT III and said, “coach you must have been happy when Gerry McNamara graduated a few years back, especially after all those big shots he made against you guys and the buzzer beater he knocked down in DC for the W”. The look on his face was priceless; I caught him off guard so his initial reaction was part I want to choke you and part amusement that I even broached the subject. When he did finally respond he cordially shared he was not the only coach in the Big East who was happy to see McNamara graduate. We didn’t speak another word but I just wanted to throw him a little jab. [/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
