Close Encounter

July 20th, 2007

Last night Mark, Ryan, and myself were in downtown Birmingham walking past Flemmings Steak House and I notice a couple standing outside waiting for vallet.  We walk past them and all of the sudden I notice Mark stops walking and turns around and starts to walk back.  I turn around and the guy looks up and immediately I realize its Tigers pitcher Kenny Rogers!  So of course Mark says, “Hey, I picked you as my Tiger!” and Kenny chuckles and thanks him and then Mark says, “We’ll see you in the World Series” and Kenny replies with “I hope so.”  I wanted to tell him to keep his hands clean in October but decided against that.  Anyways, that was our sweet DTB Tiger Encounter.
