So I am in Chicago for a set of board meetings. My meetings end at 6:00 pm central time last night. I dash to the ESPN Zone in downtown Chicago. I meet with a manager and convince him to put on the Caps vs. Thrashers game. I eat a burger. I get to watch a sloppy and ugly game with a beautiful ending in that we gain two standing points in the division on the road.
While I am watching the game, a business executive comes into the bar area and he is really into the game. He is cheering for the Caps. In between periods, I go over and introduce myself. His name is Jonathan Duke. He is from Sterling, VA. He is on a business trip and he wants to see “his favorite team” play.
How cool is that? We chat, take a photo together and watch the end of the game.
Go Caps! Rock the Red - everywhere.
