Sooper Fast!
So I went to the Redskins/Saints game Sunday. I'm a Saints fan and have been since back in the day when they were a giant ball of suck. I also got a new coat.

Wow, tangent much?

Anyways, I was enjoying the game from club level seating in the mid level when the friend who got us tickets had two friends at ground level that wanted to switch two of us seats so they could chat. We ended up 17 rows back for the 2nd half of the game. Of course, when I went to check my phone (3Gs that I got this summer because my 3G broke) it wasn't there...The coat that I got has some what shallow pockets, but I was sure I had it angled in there pretty good.

What a bummer, my team was about to get smoked by the Redskins and I lost my phone. Well, the Saints ended up winning by a hair and I ended up on my couch that evening with no phone.

So on the random hope that lost and found may have it (because you know they never find it), I called. They actually had my phone. Some one must have found it and turned it in. They're mailing it to me and I should have it this week. Thanks to who ever found it and turned it in instead of whatever else they could have been doing with it.

Good story. Other than the fact you like the Saints ;)

Actually, I am pulling for them to get home field advantage so the Vikings don't.

GO PACK GO!

Saints win a squeaker and you get your phone back. How cool is that.

That's pretty good VI. I'd have never seen it again if I'd lost mine.

Must've been another iPhone owner that found it.

Nice one. Blast those Saints. (I'm a 'Skins fan) Still 12-0 they should be proud.
