If you read my last blog that I posted on MySpace, then you read about my discouragement in not getting to meet Matt Hughes at the local Harley Davidson store due to my husband having to go into work, which I still don't believe, but that is another blog in itself. I honestly don't think he wanted to come face to face with MH since he is a Serra fan. Well as of Saturday, January 12, 2008 at 2:30 p.m., in the wonderful town of Festus, MO at Wal-Mart (of all places), my mission was accomplished. My friend, Angela, went with me and she is basically the reason I have come to like UFC and Matt Hughes. She didn't get to see him when he was either because she was visiting her Mother, her husband did and he rubbed it in her face (love ya Sean!!).
As many of you know, Matt is a Christian and that is the main reason that I like him, well, other than he is cute to look at also. Anyone that can make a stand for Christ and stand firm in their beliefs is high in book. Matt is out on a book tour promoting his new book, Made in America, which I stand to say is good. I finished it last night. I laughed, cried, and then laughed and cried some more. For those of you from up home, you might remember the Charleston Spillway tragedy with the 2 EIU wrestlers that drowned. He was there when that happened and almost lost his life....as I read his recollection of what happened that day, I was in tears, I could remember the feelings that I had when it happened.
Back to Saturday, I met him, he said Brooklynn was cute with her ears pierced and all and she got her picture with him that I am hoping will make it to his blog...then Brooklynn got put into the same sentance as Posh Spice. Wow...
It was a great day in my books..I have met numerous famous people in my time..but I have to say that this may have been the best!!!
