Around SBN: Dolphins knock off Rams; get back into playoff race Bar-right-arrows



My friend > Me > you

Alright so yellowsnow, a few of our other friends and I go to Landsharks in BR to meet up with a friend.  We are all drunk as hell and are dancing and stuff, and I look up at this massive, stacked black dude dancing on this stoop.  I do a double take because I can't see straight.  I tell yellowsnow and my other friend, "Dude that guy looks just like Robert Mathis!"  We all start talking about it and looking at him so I say, "Fuck it I'm going to go ask him."  So I walk up to his stoop thing, he notices me and I kind motion him to come here a second.  I didn't actually think that was going to work be he walks over to me and I say, "Hey man I don't mean to bother you or anything but what's your name?"  He says, "Robert."  I'm like, "Robert Mathis?"  He says, "Yeap..." oagjasjgapsjgpajgjtp In my head I'm screaming, "HOLY SHIT THIS IS AWESOME!"  So I tell him, "Dude I love you man!  The Colts are going to be so awesome next year!!  I just wanted to come over and say we appreciate what you do and wanted to say good luck next year!"  He says, "Thanks alot homie, we appreciate you guys too."  So we shook hands, and he crushed my hand with his massive bearclaws.  Then I walk over to my friends again and we start freaking out like a bunch of schoolgirls.  So we continue the night, getting drinks and dancing.  Eventually yellowsnow, another friend, and I go to get some shots of tequila and when we get back my other friend tells me that Robert waved him over and offered to take a shot with him.  So he said they took a shot of vodka.  So everyone was all jealous and whatnot and I called him a lucky bastard blah blah blah.  So eventually we decide to all leave and get some food at Qdoba.  As we are walking out, we all wave to him and shake his hand again and yellowsnow yells out, "Sack Tom Brady!"  Robert replies with, "Already did twice!" hahahhaha My god that was so awesome.  Then I yelled Go Colts!  And we walked out.  That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

I know you are all jealous. :)

he wasn't just "taking shots"
he had a fifth of grey goose in his right hand all night.  it was practically empty too.  he kept taking shots with this girl and boxer that were on the stage with him.  it was pretty funny.

i can't say for sure because i was pretty inebriated, but he looked pretty drunk to me.

A day off...
...here and there won't kill anybody.

I wouldn't begrudge him a night out, or even a late morning the next day, here and there.

Really cool, dude.
That's one of the best fan encounters ever, to meet and interact with a player in a social setting like that, and have them be cool and not brush you off or anything.

I have 3 fan encounters with Titans, and none of them were that cool.

  1. I parked Steve McNair's SUV once while working as a valet at a restaurant.
  2. I met Eddie George at a bookstore while I was meeting a friend who worked there for lunch.  He was buying a book on landscape architecture.
  3. I am 98% certain I was standing in line behind Frank Wychek waiting on a urinal at a Metallica concert, but I didn't actually talk to him there, it would have been a little weird.

Jealous
As my signon name would suggest, I'm pretty jealous of you. I think Mathis is perhaps the most fan-friendly Colt. I have a picture of him and I together at last year's Colts Draft party at Pan Am Plaza. He was so excited that a fan actually owned his jersey.

Also at training camp this past summer, when I was there, he was the only player (other than DeDe Dorsey) to come over and sign autographs for the fans on his way into the locker room.

Great guy.
