Litte Story behind the Auburn Tigers Jersey!!!
I knew that Brad was a very big Auburn Tigers fan, so I decided
to find him a special gift... One day I stumbled across the jersey
in a Sports Shop in a Nashville Mall, and Marlene convinced
me to buy it for him!!!!
The gift was supposed to be given to Brad at the Columbus, GA show,
but I was unable to get it to him, so I held on to it, and gave it
to him in Rochester Hills, Michigan!!! He was not expecting it...
I handed Brad a light blue t-shirt that was made for him (Long story)
and told him, "Here is a t-shirt that was made for you, but
inside of it is a gift for you!! I will explain the shirt later!!!" He said,
"I hope it is a bottle, since I just ran out!!" I told him, "Sorry baby, it is not
a bottle, but you are going to just love it!!!"
Brad was very excited (Like a little boy on Christmas morning!),
but opened the t-shirt cautiously... He was not
sure if something was going to jump out at him (with
all the practical jokes that are always being played onstage!)... When
he finally got to the jersey, he pulled it out and said,
"OMG, it's a jersey.... An AUBURN TIGERS Jersey!!! OMG!!!
Jan, you shouldn't have!! OMG, I LOVE it!!! You are too sweet!!
Thank you so much!!!"
He was so elated that he jumped up from his chair,
and gave me a big hug and kiss...
The guys were all complaining about how cold it was, so
I told Brad, "Put your jersey on Brad, it will warm you up!!!" So
he jumped up and started putting the jersey on over his black
button up shirt... He was struggling to get his sleeves straight, so I helped him out!!! Once he got the
jersey on, Marlene snapped a photo of him with
his arms in the air, as he exclaimed:
"I Scored A Touchdown!!!"... It was too cute!!!!
I just had to have my photo taken with Brad and his new jersey!!!
He could not stop telling me I was too sweet, and thanking me!!!! Talk about
a very special moment with Brad!!!! All the guys were admiring the jersey!!!
Now I need to find a special something for the others!!!!
