CFTC 5 weekend was so much fuin and my dream came true. well, 90% of it anyways! it was the 20th of July and it was the day i had been waiting for: the CFTC basketball game. my dad and i drove from orlando to ft. lauderdale and waited for over a half hour in the 90 degree weather. after sum girl started puking all over herself, they let us in. I went right to my seat and when i looked down at the people who were dribbling and warming up and noticed that they were celebs! I ran down to the front and i took some nice pics of chris. he is so cute up close. i called out his name several times, but i guess hes so used to hearing screaming girls that he blocked me out. then, my dad came up behind me and used his booming loud voice to call out to chris. chris' head snapped in our direction and he looked like a deer in headlights! the poor guy thought that my dad was gonna jump over the barracade and beat the spit out of him or sumthin! LOL My dad laughed and pointed to me. chris came over, looking a little relieved, and i told him that i came over 1, 500 miles to see him and his eyes popped out and I'm pretty sure he said 'no s**t?!', but i couldn't hear that well because everyone was screaming. i then pulled out a little toy car that i bought for chris and handed it to his security guard to give to him. his bodyguard looked it over carefully to make sure it wasn't a bomb or anything and then handed it to chris. chris looke it over for a second, then when he realized what it was, his eyes lit up like an excited kid. he was like 'oh, cool!' and he had the cutest smile on his face. he makes my heart melt when he smiles that way. he then saw the poster i was carrying (it had a drawing of chip skylark on it) and he asked if i wanted him to sign it. i asked if he would please sign my hat and he said 'of course i will!' i ripped off that $3 truckers hat so fast it would have made ur head spin! LOL i handed it to his bodyguard and he handed it to chris. he said 'oh, geez, i need a pen! do you have one, sweetie?' WHOAH, he called ME 'SWEETIE'! i frantically searched my bag for one, but i guess i was getting a little too frantic cause chris said' oh, calm down! they'll get one for me. i'm not goin' anywhere!' oh, he is such a gentlemen, isn't he?! they finally found him a permanent marker and he signed my hat. he gave it back to me, smiled and looked me in the eyes, and said 'thanks, your a really cool gal' or sumthing (once again, the screaming people in the background sisn't help me much with hearing what he had to say!) he gave me one last wave before the ushers forced me back to my seat. once i got to my seat, i cried like an hysterical teenie, then i composed myself LOL. the game was awesome and chris kept pointing, waving and winking at me. that man IS evil, sexy, and evil! then, right before the game ended, a staff person tapped me on the shoulder and asked if i was the one with the chip poster. i said yes and he said chris wanted to say thanks for coming out so far to see him and thanks for the car and he also wanted to know if you could hold up the poster up higher so he could see it. i said yes and he handed me a shirt. 'chris wants you to have this. its one of the extra shirts hes given to take home, but hes wants you to have it.' i almost jumped on that poor staff person LOL. the game ended and my dad and i ran back outside. actually, i ran, he tried to keep up, LOL. i got to the ramp at the bottom of the parking lot and waited for chris to come out. my dad finally caught up right when jc left. he had brought his camcorder and he actually caught chris leaving in his PT cruiser on video! and that was the ending to a perfect day. oh, excpet for the three hour drive home and my aching feet, LOL! - Amanda
