[QUOTE="weeds, post: 418352, member: 39"] Coming out of the gas station this morning (we old guys tend to wake up early), a guy who is considerably older than I, I think his name is Methuselah, noted all of the Packers related stuff I usually wear on weekends (like, head to toe..haha) and this old guy said, "Damn it, I'm dropping $100 on a ticket and I want to see HIM (meaning #12, of course) play."
