Oh, I have to share this story.
I was at the Florida game on September 20. We hit the bomb for Drake for the TD, and I was filming it on my digital video camera. The two girls next to me noticed I had the camera and pom-poms in front of me. The sweet little blonde - she was from Savannah, GA btw - asked if she and her friend could use my pom-poms.
I mean, who am I to turn down such beautiful and thick Southern accents. So I let them use them (I filmed about 1/2 the game, including close-ups, but I haven't edited it yet because of a computer issue). At halftime I decided I could have some fun. I asked her when her birthday was. She told me it was March 20, 1996. I told her that was a Wednesday and listed a few historical things that happened close to then: Ron Brown's plane crash, the Unabomber captured (both on 4/3). Then I asked her friend when hers was and she said it was November 10, 1995. I told her she was born the day before we played MSU in 1995 and won, 14-9. So they both got their phones out and began looking up. Then I told the girl closest to me that I had been on "60 Minutes." So she looked it up and found the online photo and began telling everyone nearby, "We're using the pom-poms of a guy who was on '60 Minutes!'" Then I looked up and down the aisle behind me and everyone was focused in on our little discussion.
Later in the game, the board showed highlights from the 1999 win in the Swamp. I told the cute blonde, "That game was played on Saturday, October 2, 1999, and we ended their long winning streak by a score of 40-39." This gal had no idea as she would have been three at the time. It finished and she's looking dumbfounded at me.
It was just plain fun, that's all. Plus - you can find out how old people are very innocently. After you dazzle them with the information you recall, they don't even think about the fact you can find out other things about them.
