Final Write
Urrrgg! My stomach growled, like a bear, when my mom told me we were going
to go to a big Applebee’s in Ann Arbor, Michigan, after this volleyball tournament was
done with. When the tournament was over with, we were on our way to the restaurant.
When we got there the girl asked how many people we had, grabbed the menu’s, and
took us back to our seats.
On our way back to our seats I saw this guy that I had recognized from the
football game the night before. I decided to go ask my dad who it was because it was
really starting to bug me. He told me it was Braylon Edwards, he was a great football
player who played for the Cleveland Browns. Braylon was eating dinner with two other
guys.
Right when I saw him I was really anxious to get his autograph. My friend, John
Nocella, and I kept bugging my parents to let us go up to him and get his autograph and
meet him, but my parents thought it was rude to interrupt his dinner for some two little
kids. John and I were so bummed. But, we were still excited that we got to see the tall
6”5 man.
The next day at school we told all of our friends and they couldn’t believe it!
They thought it was so amazing. Of course everyone asked why didn’t you get his
autograph? Every time we had to explain to them “our parents wouldn’t let us”!
Well as it ended up, we didn’t get his autograph, but at least I thought it was
really sweet to see him. Have you ever meet or seen a celebrity? I hope you do because it
is a really cool experience.
