Ive made it to training camp for the past 10-11 years. Now that I have an 11 yr old son its great to see them up close and for him to meet players and get autographs. It was 2009 and first day of camp back in Georgetown, KY. He and I drove all the way from Columbus and as im pulling into Georgetown I realize my dumb a** forgot sharpies so we pulled into the Kmart. It was still about 2 hrs or so before practice so we go in all decked out in Bengals gear. I'm walking up an aisle and f**ing Chad Johnson was standing right there apparently grabbing stuff for the dorm. My son was only 5 but he had his chad johnson jersey on so Chad came over to give him a fist bump and my son just stood there. Had no idea who he was at first. And me in my shock barely got 3 words out but I shook his hand and then started texting my wife ..."you wont believe who I just ran into..."
