Now I’ve had Gary Sandy of “WKRP in Cincinnati”, and Isaiah Washington of the as customers, but tonight I almost whacked into Scott Hamilton with a big bag of cinnamon rolls. I did the night deposit drop and as I turned around decided at the last minute to go down a different set of escalators. I spun around, and my bag nearly smacked into him. And I had a question I’ve always wanted to ask him…but I’m too polite to bother people when they’re just trying to get back to their hotel. Oh well…it was mundane and pointless anyhow!
