I didn't even want his autograph, I just wanted to be there and get a picture when he hoisted the cup.They should have done the speeches and crap some other time and let him speak and the fans see him and get pictures. It's too bad he got sick and had to leave.

I know I was hot and a little crusty, never mind all the children who had to wait in line. We were there at 11:30ish. (We had kids saving a spot in line at 10:00am) When we got there the line in front of us was about 30 Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021647.post-71076308367760317942007-07-08T18:35:00.000-07:002007-07-08T18:35:00.000-07:00like i said i was making blanket statments on my o...like i said i was making blanket statments on my own blog and in the heat of the moment... i also did say that usually mennonites and the people of southern manitoba are usually good people... of course there are good, bad and ugly in each culture.. ours (notice i said ours because i am just as mennonite as the next...) ours not excluded.. sorry you were offended.. my blog is not meant to offend Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01319239641295607118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021647.post-78299577786753167552007-07-08T18:25:00.000-07:002007-07-08T18:25:00.000-07:00Hey Heather...I know yesterday was some what crazy...Hey Heather...I know yesterday was some what crazy. There was alot of cutting in line and jumping the ropes, but what I also saw was that half the people there were not even from Winkler. It bothers me that you would call all mennonites bad apples.
