A funny thing happened on my way to Stanford the other day...
I happened to be in Palo Alto this last weekend and randomly ran into Stanford Basketball player Carlton Weatherby at Safeway. He was with his fiancee, who went to high school with one of the friends I was with. Some of the more interesting fallout from the quick chat:
1. He was very afraid of Appleby. When he found out we were from UW, he made this comment (unprompted): "That Appleby, he's sooo dangerous. You're always afraid of him going nuts on you." So I made some comment about how it must change your D to have to defend someone out to 30 feet and he was like: "Totally. There's no one else like that." Good stuff.
2. I am exactly 6 feet tall. Carlton is listed as 6'1". He was 3 inches shorter than me.
3. Every newly minted legal drinker from Washington is amazed by the concept of liquor in grocery stores. The youngsters I was with were, Carleton's Fiancee's friend was too. She stood infront of the aisle of booze and said "This is AMAZING! I can't believe this!"
