Meeting a legend!
Posted in: Uncategorized
Saturday was a huuuuuuuuge day for 2/5 of TRG! Maffew and I got to go up to Asheville for a little lunch date with the legendary Dale Murphy. And it was good. So very, very good.
Dale was a complete gentleman and a gracious and patient man even though he was sweating in the sun and facing a good many rabid fans who seemed to struggle to treat him like a real person.
I do hope that makes sense. When I say they struggled to treat Murph like a real person, I mean they treat him as such a legend that they basically act like they’ve just met Batman or Donald Duck. At an event like that, Dale Murphy may as well be a robot. Makes me feel bad for him, and makes me want to avoid being a 2-time NL MVP and a 7-time All-Star. Somehow I don’t think I have too much to worry about with either of those.
Maffew and I got to go to Anderson on Friday night! Our first trip to the Electric City in a few months, and our first trip to an Anderson-area bar in a couple of years. Of course the P1’s came out in huuuuuge numbers and showed us a real good time. Hopefully we showed them a real good time, too. And we’ll be mack at TJ Whispers thsi Friday night from 10-midnight once again! Please do join us.
