Here’s something you don’t know about me.
In 2005 I worked for a company that was divided into two sections. In the opposite section that I worked, was girl that lit up the room wherever she went, a real hottie!
I had only ever made small talk with her and was a little too nervous to ask her out or anything like that.
Most people at work knew I loved the Tigers, I had a small shrine of stickers on the back of my motorcycle helmet and would wear a Tigers hat often.
One day while having my lunch, this girl (the hottie) walks up to me and says; “I heard you love the Tigers, my brother has tickets to the Tigers / Dragons semi, would you like to come?” I was so nervous, I said; “I don’t think I can afford it” She looked a bit awkward and said “no worries, just thought I would ask.”
Later that day, I realised how awesome this opportunity was, and went and found her and said “if the offer still stands, I would love to come.
I went to the game with her, and as you all know that game was something special. Her family also had tickets to the grand final and I was invited.
A few weeks before all this, I went to the Tigers / Broncos game by myself, and I got to say, going to the footy by yourself is not as much fun, as with other people. And a few times that day, I was wishing I could have been experiencing that day with someone.
From that invite to the Dragons game, me and the “hottie” (Kristie) have not been apart and are now married with two kids.
I often think, my life is the way it is because of what the Tigers done in 2005\. There’s a real chance if the Tigers were knocked out that year, we never would have gone out, and my kids would not exist….......ahhhh no kids! :mrgreen: (just kidding, love the little devils) :sign:
