Oh my god.

I went to the Smackdown taping tonight (sorry, no spoilers 🙂 ).  
**And I met Jeff Hardy!!!**  
Here’s the story…Me and my friends Joe, Keith and Stephanie went to the Allstate Arena, tickets in hand. We got there early enough to stop at the booths ( I HAD to buy a giant foam Hardy Boyz hand).

I’m walking over to the beer counter and I hear a voice say “Keebs, is that you?” Keebs was my nickname back when I worked retail, about four years ago. It turns out someone who worked with me back then works security at Allstate. Even though it’s been five years, a lot less pounds and several hair colors later, I still have my distinctive strut.

After we caught up, he offered to take us backstage. Here’s the play by play…  
**Chris Jericho** remembers me from the two times me and my friend Denise have met him. I guess it’s hard to forget a tag team of a six foot tall blonde and a five foot tall redhead, tee hee.  
We then ran into the **Undertaker** and **Kane**. Yes, Kane had the mask on. Keith marked out to the point where I was embarassed for him. We took a picture of me, without my 4" heels, standing between Taker and Kane. I come up to about their navels. 🙂

**Trish Stratus** complimented my shoes.

And then…::chorus of angels::  
**Jeff**  
As seen [here in all his glory…](http://www.hardyzyearbook.com/pictures/jeffinhall.jpg)  
I made small talk, posed with him, Matt and Lita for several pics while **this** ran through my head…

_Oh my god… He is freaking gorgeous… Those are some green eyes… Don’t grab him, don’t grab him…Is that sweat or water running down his neck, maybe I should lick it and find out…DON’T GRAB HIM…that Carolina accent’s making me frisky, hell THE WHOLE PACKAGE…whatever you do, don’t jump him…good god, could I ride him like a dimestore pony…take me extreme style…would it be bad to specify I bought the indy tape (I had him and Matt sign a tape from their indy wrestling days) becuase he got pantsed in a match?..Don’t grab him (but I wanna!!!)_  
After my ultra crappy weekend, I needed this.  
I can die happy now. well happier if I had had the cojones to slip him my cell number, but it was great.

🙂

All I can think of is when Marcia Brady got to meet Davey Jones and said she would never wash her cheek again.  
Glad you had a good time hardy.

I met Animal from the Road Warriors once, in between his WWF stints when he was out with an injury. He was very cool and signed autographs and posed for pictures. He looks a lot bigger in person.

I met The Big Show while working at a truck stop. He is freaking HUGE!! He bought a giant-sized Coke and some beef jerky, if I remember right, and filled up his rental car. We made small talk for awhile (“Hey, remember when you fell off that roof in Detroit? What’s up with that?” teeheehee) and I got his autograph, too. Well, not really - he paid with his credit card and I made him sign his receipt. No autograph, but he’s a nice guy, too. Very humble.

Hardygrrl, glad you got to meet your hero. Now if Mick Foley ever comes around here, then I can meet mine, too.

He’s hardcore! He’s hardcore! He’s hardcore!

Hate me now, **Syko** …

I’ve met Mick Foley twice, both at book signings.

I’ve also previously met Y2J, Edge, Christian, the Dudleys, Too Cool, Test, Albert and Teddy Long.  
My friend scoped out what hotels they stay at in Chicago. Yep, we’re ring rats. 🙂

**blur** , LOL. Jeff had his arm around me [sub]holding me up, tee hee [/sub] for a pic. When we headed to our seats, Joe said “and I KNOW you’re never wearing that sweater again. You’ll put in a ziploc bag and get whiffs of Jeffy from time to time.”  
I’m still shaking, in a good way. 🙂

hardygrrl … you’re the reason I want to be a wrestler some day! Gotta love ring rats! 😉

That’s cool that you met all those guys. I almost felt like I was stealing your thunder there for a minute, but you got me there.

I met Snoop Dogg at the same truck stop a few weeks after Show was in there. But Snoop isn’t a wrestler, so he doesn’t count.

Can I just give a big ole YUMMMMMMMY right now? I got to meet Jeff for about 10 seconds during the last show in Houston which was the Sept 13th show (the one after WTC). He was cool, but running late so I just got to introduce myself.

Big Show is the man. I love that guy. You can almost climb him like a mountain.

I wanna see the Taker/Kane/hardygrrl pic!!! 🙂

Hardygrrl, I could kick you right now, I’m so jealous.

Of course, it’s not because of Jeff, but because you got to meet 'Taker! Arrgh!  
But, congratulations on meeting Jeff. My best friend is a Jeff-freak too, so I can kind of understand how you feel right now.

Of course, one of these days I’ll get to meet 'Taker. (I think I may have the hookup when they come here to tape Smackdown in January… :D)

So, you had the chance to do many wicked things to this man in broad daylight, and you didn’t take it? I think we should all give Hardygrrl the high five for being a model of self-control under extreme duress. 🙂

Hey, **hardygrrl** , congrats on finally getting the Holy Hardy Graile! It’s been a long time coming, I know.

I gotta ask, is Chris Jerico as cool off camera as he is on?

We should all send get well wishes to **hardygirl**.

Word I got is she’s is in the hospital for dehydration after drooling all over Jeff, and loss of other bodily “fluids”.

I’ve met 'Taker. I have a friend of mine who wrestles with OVW (Ohio Valley Wrestling), which is run by Jim Cornett, and is kind of a “farm team” for the WWF. A lot of their wrestlers will show up in OVW for injury rehab, and things like that. So I’ve met a few of the superstars. 'Taker, my friend and I all went out to dinner one night.

Who’s your friend? Anybody well-known? Anybody about to be called up to the WWF? The suspense is killing me! (I’m such a mark…)

Last night I walked out onto my back porch. Through the soles of my feet I could feel a vague throbbing coming through the earth from somewhere off to the north and west.

I see now that I was feeling the effects of **hardygrrl** ’s libido being forcibly repressed.

[sup](For once…)- [/sup]😃

Congrats on finally meeting your namesake!

-Tygr, who apparently shouldn’t be trying so hard to get rid of _his_ Carolina accent.

Unfortunately, no one that would strike fear or awe into anyone hear. He wrestles under the name of Chris Alexander. He’s still aways off from being called up, if he ever makes it.

[sub] Still grinning like an egg sucking dog…[/sub]

And I’m still getting teased by Joe and Keith for acting like a " thirteen year old girl at an NSync concert."  
**robgruver** , of course I’ll send you a pic. 🙂

**skerri** , Taker rocks. His voice, meow kitty kitty, plus he could pick me up one handed if he wanted too…

**Sealemon88** , Jericho is so funny. He remembered my name 🙂 and asked about my friend. I made her day telling her that this morning.  
**katie** , now we have to get you near Bono.

**Tygr** , pfft 😛 I was too intimidated to flirt, believe it or not. Imagine being in the same situation. I’m lucky I was able to put together coherent sentences.

**Vinnie** , double pfft. 😛 No loss of bladder control for me but man were my knees weak.

**mancunian** , and you are? 🙂  
**Superdude** , I envy you.

Hey, Jeff Hardy finally got to meet **hardygrrl**! I’ll bet he’s stoked supreme. He’s probably bragging about it to Chris Jericho every night.

Hey, can anyone hook me up with Mae Young??? I need her advice, because I got my hand stuck up in…

Never mind.
