Fossilman!

by Todd Melanson • March 29, 2006

Hey gang, Florida and Disney are great!! Let me paint a scenario for ya...
It was today the 29th, I've got a fast track pass to get on the GM test track. It's basically a ticket that tells you when to come back and go on a ride so you wont have to wait..

I go back to the ride at my scheduled time and as I approach the front of the line I hand my ticket to the clerk and as I do this I scope out the room. I quickly noticed a man in a pink polo shirt standing there..... It was none other than the 2004 World Series of Poker CHAMP The fossilman, Greg Raymer!! EEK

At this point I'm really fucking excited and I want to go over and say hey and get a pic or something, but he was in a diferent section and I didn't get the opportunity. Surprise

Anyway the ride occurs and it's fucking sweet, crusin at speeds of 68 MPH!! What a ride!! Razz The kids and I go down to meet Nicole and guess who's there with his wife and kid???? The fossilman!! So this must be faith! Without any more delay I approached the fossilman and he was like the biggest asshole in the world!! Evil

Haahhaha, just kiddin!! LOL

The fossilman was great! We had a short conversation (man is he modest) and he even posed for a picture with me!! All Nicole had was a disposible camera, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!

Anyways I thought I would share that with you all... Good luck at the game on Friday night!

Dude! That's awesome!

You should have got him to hold up a sign that says "I only play with the boys at the Moncton Poker Club". hahah... that would have ruled!

Glad to hear your enjoying Florida. I wouldn't want to be there - We're having temperatures like 13 and 14 degrees C! Razz Razz Razz

Oh, and by the way... I LOVE the fact that you meeting up with the fossil man is faith... it's like, I believe in meeting Greg Raymer! I have faith in it.

I probably would have said something like, it must have been fate - but that's just too clich�... atta stray from the norm. Grin

I guess I tend to say weird stuff after being in the sun all day... Oh well, yeah that would have rocked, but I didnt have a pen or paper for that matter...Well you can have your 13, 14 degrees... I'll take the 26-30 degrees here in Florida! Grin
