    So today after school I decided to go to Subway to get something to eat. When I got there I went to the bathroom to wash my hands, not knowing that when I came out I would leave smiling ear to ear lol. :D

    After I came out of the bathroom I got in the line, 10 seconds later I see someone REALLY familiar walk in, I had to stare at this person for a good couple seconds before saying "O $HIT! CHUCK HAYES!" I ran to my car to get my phone while saying the same thing out loud lol. Once I got back inside I had someone take a picture of us, so while waiting in line we started talking. I was like I am a huge rockets fan and I got my rockets keychain and my rockets license plate frame lol. I said I saw you yesterday at the rally with Ron and he was just like yeah yeah we are going to go real far next year and that we will be one of the top teams to beat. We started talking about more rockets stuff, olympics, and my high school basketball team. Once my food was ready and was about to pay, he shoved me out of the way and pulled out a wad of 100's and paid for my food! Then he signed my recpeit saying "To Francis: Go Rockets! Chuck Hayes #44"

    It's good you didn't say anything like, "How is that jumpshot coming along Chuck!" Good story though.

    That's F'n awesome. Chuck seems like one of the nicer guys and it looks like he proved it in your case.

    Hayesfan will probably be the highest bidder if you put that receipt on eBay.

    Man your way lucky, it was super nice of Chuck to pay for you.Sounds like Chuck and Ron will be a great line if Rick decides to play them both at the same time.
