I am going to Las Vegas! Hooray. I am going to see UFC 126 where Rich Franklin is the co-main event fighting Forrest Griffin. The main event is Anderson (hate your guts) Silva fighting Victor (kick Silva's Ass) Belfort, but I am not as interested in that event.
I am all about Rich Franklin. I think not only is he a tremendous fighter, but he is also a tremendous person who has a kind heart and treats his fans well. I had the awesome pleasure of meeting him a few years ago, and truly, he gave me his complete and undivided attention. There was no attitude, no "look at me", just a really honest individual who is grateful for the opportunities that life has given him.
Now don't get me wrong, but I LOVE this man. I sit on the edge of my seat for every one of his fights, I am elated when he wins, and devestated when he loses. I had a great email chat with his wife today and if she doesn't think I'm a total lunatic and stalker, I may meet her when I'm in Vegas next month.
Always looking for the next great life experience!
Wow... that is quite a catch-up. Sorry to hear things have been so up and down for you.
ReplyDeleteHave a blast in Vegas... I think my co-worker will be there too. If you see a tiny little Phillipino lady with short hair chasing after fighters with her camera, that's likely her! She'll be wearing heels too, but that won't slow her down. :)
