We had a tournament in Gulfport this weekend, and one of our parents bumped into DC and told him even though they were season ticket holders, his son was never able to meet him or get his autograph. DC told him what field they would be watching his GF's brother on and for him/our team to come take pics.

Everyone went over and he took a pic with our team, then later on he stopped to take individual pics with all the kids and some of the parents.

He wasn't being accosted by people there, as I guess he's not as well known there as he would be here. He was awesome to the kids and acted like it was no big deal when we thanked him for doing it even though it drew a lot of attention to him.


Cheers DC


P.S. He was coy when we asked him if he could come back

I don’t know the guy, but somehow, this is exactly what I’d expect him to be like.
Glad to hear he is good people.

I guess there's a chance that anyone who stands to be rich and famous has to put on a good face when out in public, but it seemed genuine to me


ETA: I didn't talk to his GF but others did, and she sounds like she is a great person as well.

It could be an act. Doesn’t seem like it though.
