Around SBN: Iron Bowl Thoughts... Right Now

Ben Howland sighting

My girlfriend and I saw him at the Ralphs on Le Conte.  He was wearing shorts and a grey UCLA polo shirt.  He was talking on his cell phone in the chilled beverage isle.  That is all.  I love that guy.

PS. I also saw Michael Roll at BJ's two nights ago where I host.  I showed him to his table.

I'm such a dork.

You are not a dork dude
At least you are getting laid.

I am sure you can't say the same thing about ManPundit.

sightings
I've seen Fey around, he was eating panda express on the Ackerman steps (BJ's and Panda express, I guess his Chinese team hasnt specified a diet for him, unless they really want him to have beer, pizza, and orange chicken :P).  I was also eating on the steps one day and Mata strolled up in a team Mexico soccer jersey, walked to the top of the stairs, and sat down right next to me.  I was kinda weirded out because there was a lot of space to sit down anywhere else, but he was litterally a couple inches away.  I didnt have the nerve to say hi :P

Lucky
You are lucky that from that distance he didn't accidentally poke your eye out with his mangled beak!

I'll keep an eye out
I work on Wilshire and I go into the village at least twice a week.

I did see Kareem Abdul Jabar about three years ago near Brew Co.  I was heading back to the office and I see this guy getting out of a Ford Explorer, and I thought, "Gee, that guy is pretty tall."  A couple of seconds later, I realized it was Kareem.  I didn't say hi.  I've heard he doesn't like being recognized in public (kind of hard when you're that tall).

I Saw Kelvin Kim!!!
He was walking down the Bruin Walk when we heard a distant scream. He took two giant steps backward and got a running start. In one leap he flew off into the sky disappearing into the horizon. No word on what happened with the scream.

Man...
I used to take History of the Beatles and sat next to Ryan Hollins. I think Fey and TJ Cummings were in that class too.

I also took a poli sci class with Chris Kluwe...the prof gave him hell for that OU game when Perkins ran three back on him. Ah...memories.
