Bowling Alley

I had my 3rd brush with stardom this weekend. I was at woodland bowl on 96th street meeting some friends from work for some fun at the alley after work. We were standing around talking, waiting for the others to arrive. The next thing I know, I see a well built black man carrying a bowling ball walking towards the door to leave the alley. It was Joseph Addai.
I recognized him immediately and waved. He saw I too was holding my own bowling ball, knew I was cool, and nodded his head back in recognition of my wave.

This will go down with the times I saw Peyton Manning at the airport, and Rick Smits, also at the airport.

BTW I threw a 206 in my third game.

Nate P Woods... you are almost famous yourself. He didn't nod at you b/c you had your own bowling ball... he nodded b/c he appreciated that you didn't run up to him and scream his name asking for his autograph. But I guess not doing that makes you cool... in your own way
