What a small world!

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

This past July I attended the Auburn Football Fantasy Camp, and while riding back to the hotel in one of the university vans, I was telling Jim Lawson a story about my sister, Meredith Sutton (a 1981 AU grad). She had been to Wimbledon in England in June of this year and she passed a gentleman wearing an Auburn shirt and she cried out, “War Eagle.” The man turned around and yelled, “War Eagle” in reply and then gave my sister a high-five. After telling Jim this story, he immediately turned to me with his eyes wide open and said, “That was me. I was the one who gave your sister a high-five.” I then called my sister on my cell and asked her if she remembered the Auburn man at Wimbleton and she said “yes.” I then told her “Well, I’m sitting right next to him.” To make a long story short, my sister, who lives in Florida, is coming to the Auburn-Florida game and we all plan to get together (Jim, my sister, and I) to tailgate.
