So, one of my best friends lives 2 hrs away from the Greenbrier and takes a trip every year to see the team, get autographs, etc.. He takes his family up and they have a great time, meeting the team, taking pics, getting autographs. Last year, he got a number of autographs, including Brees.
He wanted to get Colston's autograpgh, but he's heard stories about how Colston is an introvert, timid, and rarely signs autographs. Colston, his favorite player behind Brees, he decided last year that he would buy 2 Colston Jerseys, one white and one black, to show him some love next training camp.
On Sunday, he said he was out there, saw Colston and waved the Jerseys. Hoping to get an autograph, he was excited to see him walk over, then grab a Sharpie and walk by the fans, helmet on with the face guard glass. Said he waited his turn and finally got up to give him his Jersey. Looked at him in his eyes and thought something aint right. Looked at his Jersey and saw it was Brandon Coleman's signature. Brandon Coleman was wearing a helmet with Colston's name on it, including the #12 jersey.
So, imitating someone else maybe a little funny, as once my buddy caught on to it, he said something and the other players started laughing. So, innocent joke as it is/was, now my buddy has a Brandon Coleman autograpgh on a Colston jersey. And, the team laughing made him feel bad, like the joke was on him. How would you feel if the team you've loved and supported, turns around and plays a joke on you? We're Who Dat for life, but that leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
What say you guys?
