Just met Bryce Harper
« Topic Start: December 24, 2012, 03:29:15 AM »
Just ran into Bryce Harper at Wal-Mart!  The kid actually went to my high school, but I graduated in 2006, I think that was a year before he even attended it.  I felt like an idiot that this is the first time in about two weeks I wore a cap other than my Nats cap though.

Not as sweet as the McDonald's bag.

It must have been a great moment. Gotta say, though, the kid has weird hair.

At On Field Photo Day he shook as many hands as possible and was a nice polite kid!

Bryce is amazing in how normal he seems.  He's more or less been in the news starting at about the same age Britney Spears became big, and when you compare their normalness at age 20 . . .

I think perhaps a more apt comparison might be Taylor Swift...

I think it is great that he smiled and stood for the photo.

Once, may daughter and her best friend recognized Chuck Knoblach walking down a ramp from Yankee Stadium. Steinbrenner had been snarling at Knobbie the day before -- weird problem throwing to first -- but he stopped, smiled, and waited while a policeman snapped a picture. It must have been a bad day for him, but he is classy.

Happy that Harper is the same.

Knoblach has always been classy, as a player and a person. Met him also at Yankee Stadium; really 'real' guy. Again, glad Bryce is like him.

Very cool.

I wonder if he were to go up to customer service and ask them if they had any Bryce Harper jerseys what their reaction would be? 1) Would they recognize him? 2) If they did would they think he was joking?
