*67

On Valentine's Day we had a girls basketball game.  Lately I have noticed an increase in signs and this game was no exception.

Two guys decided to bring a giant cut-out heart and wrote "Be my Valentine".  It was cute.  The other guy had a sign that said Go Jacks - all single ladies call "605-***-****." (The numbers were actually there).  I stared at this sign the whole night wondering if it was their actual number or someone else's.  Then it dawn on me: I should call it.

I didn't want the guy to have my number so I used *67 - yes, I thought ahead for once!  It rang and the guy looked down.  I couldn't believe that this guy had actually put his real number on it.  However I was forwarded onto voicemail.  I hung up and tried it again to really make sure it was his.  Sure enough the guy looked down again and answered!  Of course I had intelligent to say, "I can't believe you really put your number up there!"

After the game it turned out the guy was a runner on the track team.  I went to tell him he was pretty gutsy to put his number up there.  As I introduced myself, he stopped me and said he did not want anything too serious.  I was so flabbergasted by this, all I could do stare at him with my mouth open…  unbelievable.

Crowd, we have a ladies man.
