That nice guy in the next seat
« on: June 03, 2009, 12:18:33 AM »
A couple of high school students went to Nebraska to be recruited for the football team.  On the way back, they met this nice guy on the plane, who turned out to be a celebrity, so they invited him to the high school graduation ceremony.   And he showed up.

Real cool dude.  I have always admired him.  I even read his book.

A great story, yet even there the racist Dimrats showed up to leave their comments about the story.

Neat story!  And glad to hear that not all teenagers are punks that need their rear ends kicked!
