We ended up talking for like half an hour, which was cool, but he was kind of a dick to other people. One girl walked over & said hi to him & said she had always wanted to meet him & blah blah & he just looked her up & down & then turned back to me & kept talking. I felt sooooo bad for her! Mat was trying not to get jealous, but you could see him look over at us every 30 seconds. And he was all puffed up to look tough, but Mat's 6'4 & I'd guess Sam Roberts was maybe 5'7 so he didn't have to try to look tough! lol
That same day I met Treble Charger. Just said hey. But my friend chilled with them on their tour bus & drank beer & played Nintendo. Pretty sweet!
I've met a bunch of hockey players, but to be honest I didn't recognise them at the time. Steve Sullivan (hockey player) lives here in Timmins, so I've said hi to him at the golf course a few times & apparantly he was with like 4 NHLers that I didn't recoginze one time. Felt pretty stupid afterwards after reading about it in the paper!! lol (PS my sister was a server at the golf course & he's a SUPER cheap tipper )
OH and from working at Revenue Canada, I've handled some famous people's tax returns, but there's no way in hell I'm telling anybody who they were or any details of their taxes!!! It was funny because I kept reading this one name over & over again & couldn't figure out why it was familiar... so I passed it to my co-worker who broke out in a huge grin. Then I figured it out! lol
i love sam roberts!!!!
i listen to "with a bullet" so much i think i'm starting to annoy people. love that song.
