Ditto. Amazing you say that... Went to a game and Jamie was pitching with his pops Paul carefully watching from the stands. I wanna say 1995 or maybe '96? I remember it wasn't long after the football team went to the Aloha Bowl, basketball team went to the Final Four, and the baseball team went to the CWS all in the same year. [Reply]

Small chance it might have been the same game I was at.. i remember Paul was there and I wanted to get an autograph but my dad told me to leave him alone because he was likely just trying to enjoy a day with his family.
That kinda set in stone for me to not bug famous people for autographs. I sat next to Bill Self at Henry T's one night and we exchanged a hello and that was the extent of our interaction. [Reply]
