Well today has just been awesome. I come into work while I'm listening to my sportstalk radio station, I hear that they are going to have Kevin Nash in studio to promote the TNA pay per view that's here in St. Louis next weekend. Well me and my son have both been huge fans of Kevin Nash since the days when he broke into the biz with Shawn Michaels back in the early 90's. So of course, I find a few good pics of him, print em out and make the almost 50 mile track down to see him. I was also courteous and called the radio station to make sure it was cool that I drove down there for the purpose of what I was going for. They said there was no problem and even expressed thanks for being thoughtful enough to call before just coming down.
So I get there about 10 minutes after his interview was over and I was beginning to worry that I had missed him after driving all that way. When I walk in there, I tell them who I was and ask if he's still there. They said he was and even told me that he had stuck around cuz he knew I was coming. I was the only one there and he said it was "awesome" that I thought enough of him to take time out of my work day to go down to meet him. He took a photo with me, signed my picture and then signed one for my son as well. He actually talked to me for about 15 mins before I finally felt guilty about taking up his time and thanked him for sticking around. He was so incredibly gracious and proved the point of why I have been such a big fan of his. And when I get home, I'll post the scans of the pix he signed and of the photo we took. The funny thing is, I'm 6'0, 245 lbs - he's 6'11, 320 lbs. I look like a midget next to him. He was just awesome though! One of the best in person experiences I've ever had because most of the time you're rushed for time. This time I had time to just B.S. with him. Made my day.. hell... made my year so far! Like I said, I'll post the scans as soon as I get home!
