Meeting real, live ah players
« on: December 05, 2011, 01:38:29 PM »
I had the good fortune of being able to meet Heeler in person.  We met, had several cups of coffee, and had a real great visit.  Most of it was not AH related, just life issues and stuff. (we have the gray hair syndrome)  :lol

Anyway it was fun and he was the first one I had met live.  It was  kinda funny... you know how you might picture someone by how they sound and act in the game.  I was not far off, it was really cool.  Looking forward to it again, as he lives in the city where my daughter and her husband live.

Spent quite a bit of time on the phone with Heeler talking Scenario strategies.  Nice all around guy I must say.

I too have met Heeler in person...that old fart gets around.  I still owe him a cup of coffee as he bought the last round.  I have also met BudGray who lives in my town. :cheers:

I haven't met Heeler  :old:  

I have met airbull, Amsoil, Bruv119, SF3, Viperius, Flyover, Loxy, and most recently, SirNuke

Apparently there are even more AHers that live in my vicinity  (as well as Loxy + Flyover who are both ~10 mins drive from me), from the 71st!

Heeler is absolutely one of my favorite players in the game. He lives a couple hours SE of here. Would enjoy meeting him in person as well.  :aok
