Here it is in all it’s glory.
After the show at the Acme Comedy Company in Minneapolis
I have to say, when I met him, it wasn’t awkward at all. Which leads me to conclude that comedians take gushing fans better than writers. Though, I don’t think that statement would surprise anyone, by any means.
Perhaps it wasn’t the meeting at all but my approach. I was calm and cool despite what my twinkling eyes and devilish grin in the picture above might lead you to believe. I presented him with common ground–or rather a common acquaintance–that we shared and it diffused any awkwardness that might have emerged.
In any case, the show was a blast. Chris Hardwick is a funny, funny man and I enjoyed seeing him at Acme. I’m also grateful that my friend Tori kept her wits about her, siddled up to the him after the show and was kind enough to make me stand with her.
And that’s how I got my picture. Awesome.
