Hey Laurie Anne, thanks I would have never remembered this if it wasn’t for your Nose Picking Pet Peeve!! BTW check out her blog at All Over The Bored
Last year, February 2006, my husband and I went on a cruise to the Western Caribbean. The flight to Florida was great, pretty much uneventful. We had a great time on our cruise and spent the weekend in Fort Lauderdale after the cruise ended. Now to the real reason I am posting this…………
Our flight back home we had a layover. I can’t remember what airport, I would have to look at the tickets stubs to know for sure.
So here we are waiting to board our flight and all the guys in the boarding area start going crazy, including my husband. I couldn’t figure out what the heck was going one, I was looking for a famous star. So my husband keeps hitting and saying “Honey, Honey, get your camera, take a picture!”
I turn to look, because I don’t know what the big deal is, I don’t see anyone famous in the boarding area… But all the men do..
He finally tells me who it is, it’s Chris "Boomer"Berman and of course I still don’t know who that is. He tells me it is a sportscaster for ESPN, NFL..bla bla. “Oh ok” I thought. My husband goes up to Chris Berman, shakes his hand, chats a bit, I take a picture and we now have to board the plane to come back to Connecticut.
So we get on the plane first. Chris Berman is behind us. We take our seats in the row on the right side of the plane (facing forward). Chris Berman sits down in Coach (we were a little shocked, thought he would have flown First Class) one row in front of us but on the left side of the plane and sat in the seat next to the aisle. The center seat was empty and there was a gentleman sitting in the seat next to the window. (Poor guy, you’ll know why in a minute)
Now I get to the Pet Peeve Laurie Anne mentioned…..
So I was looking out the window and I feel a kick from my husband. We must have been in the air for about 10 minutes.
He says” Honey, look at Chris.” So I look and don’t see anything, I shrugged my shoulders, turned away and my husband says “NO, watch!” So here I am staring at this guy, feeling a little weird about it and it happens. This guy, Chris Berman takes his finger and shoves it as far up his nose as he can get it!! (LOL, I am laughing and typing this at the sametime) WTF..I think, maybe the booger is really bothering him. The only problem was, THE MAN DIDN’T STOP THERE. He picked his nose none stop and in-between picks you would think he would have wiped them on a tissue, his shirt, hell, the back of the seat in front of him! But no, this man proceeded to pop each booger in his..umm..yup you got it…MOUTH. These weren’t average sized boogers either, my husband to this day refers to them as Earthworms!! Same color, shape everything. HOW GROSS!!
I was dumbfounded and if I was in my right mind I would have recorded it with my video camera option on my Digital Camera. But because I wanted to follow the rules and not use certain electronic devices during the flight all I have are the painful, yet amusing memories in my brain.
So after about 45 minutes of it, I said to my husband “Bet you wished you never shook his hand!”
LMAO…Chris Berman you’re a nasty man!!!
