Special Request Posting (plus the winter gets a little boring...)

Okay, I wasn't going to post this because I'm a little embarrassed by the whole situation, but someone asked that I do, and it is a pretty funny story, and my hopes are that someone else has done something way more embarrassing? Or maybe of equal embarrassment (please?). So Tom was in town for the weekend, and we decide it will be fun to go to an Admirals game (that's a minor league hockey team). Probably a recipe for disaster from the get go. So we go to the sparsely populated game and we are being good hockey fans (you know, cheering for fights, drinking lots o beer...). So the game is over, and everyone is in good spirits, when we start exiting the stadium and low and behold, who do we see? The Admirals Mascot. Perfect. A photo op at it's best. So we quickly run up to the mascot (drunkenly stumble, your choice) and request a Photo Op with the local mascot. An usher quickly volunteers to take the picture and tells us to line up quickly. We do as asked politely, and at this point, I notice Tom is standing off to the side, just watching, which is a little abnormal but we weren't going to stop the Top Model Photo shoot...So we get our pic (hastily) and run off to continue our night. As we are walking away, Tom says, "Did you guys even notice the 100 little kids that were in line to meet the mascot?" Yeah, that's right, take a closer look at the sign in the background, "Join Roscoe's Crew Kids Club" Yes, we cut off a 100 little children to get OUR pic taken with the mascot..it's not even a good pic! Somehow, no one noticed the children..seriously..we had no idea. And then Megan makes it even creepier by going to the mascot..."Soooo...what's your real name?" At which point we should have been taken out back and banned forever from minor league hockey...Sorry Kids!!!
