i've got the fever...

two days ago, i attended the 2011 ESPN sponsored ESPY awards.

yes, you read that correctly... I. ATTENDED. THE. ESPYS.

it all started when i got tickets to the red carpet festivities from an old college buddy (now one of my favorite green bay packers). and then it turned into tickets to the actual ESPY awards show (story to follow shortly)...
you see, since i moved to southern cal... some would say i've kinda become a big deal.

a little insight to the red carpet experience:
aaron rodgers was 5 feet away. my knees got wobbly and i started to sweat a little... and i may have hallucinated this, but i swear he winked at me.

clay matthews was so close that i could smell the exact outdoorsy and woodsman-esque aroma that i had always assumed his chiseled greek god-like body would emit...

and my oh my, how wonderful it was to be in the presence of ryan reynolds. and for allowing that, i'd like to give a special shout out to canada. not only did the canadians invent trivial pursuit...

but, more importantly, the great white north is the mothership to ryan reynolds' existence...
bless you, canada, bless you.

and one more small bit of information.... we met justin bieber. and he gave us sa-weeeeeeet tickets to the ESPYs. don't believe me? then apparently you didn't watch, because the proof was right there on your television screen...
