So I ran into Captain Munnerlyn's girlfriend at the park today.

It pretty cool when you get a chance to view these guys in real life scenarios.  It's so easy to get wrapped up in the jersey numbers and their on field personas and play, but to see them go to the grocery store or pick up their kids from school, it reminds us that they are just ordinary people that have extraordinary careers.  Meeting Mike Minter was one of the coolest experiences for me personally because while talking to him football never even came up.  That's what will stick with me the most is that we had a real conversation.

I was at my usual park today walking my ferocious and terrifying four month ole chihuahua. As we both exercised our finely tuned athletic machines by walking back to the car as quickly as possible, I hear the voice of a woman speaking to her young (what I presume to be) son.

"oh don't tell me you're gonna hide from that little old dog" she said to the boy.

Looking up expecting to chuckle and bask in the glory of another person complimenting my young canine companion, I first lay eyes on a giant "41" planted on the side of some black shorts. I immediately notice the style as our team training camp shorts, and can almost feel the Panthers logo on the other side as in the span of a nano second I remember that Captain is indeed local to the area and that I've ran into him on a number of occasions (including a cool sit an scout at the senior bowl the year prior to this one.)

I quickly crane my head to indeed see the panthers logo on the other side, and, as the woman approached, I gave her a quick hello and asked if she knew Captain.

Truthfully, If I had known the two were close I probably wouldn't have stopped her, but you spoiled brats in Charlotte don't know how awesome it is to ran into a Panthers fan, or someone close to the team.

After I asked if she knew him, she said yes, and that she was his girlfriend. She noticed the Panthers cap on my head and became quickly much more comfortable with the stranger stopping her in the park, and we spoke only for a brief moment on how he was away at OTA's, my run in with him at the senior bowl a year prior, and she got my name to mention to him about it. (which I honestly thought amusing, but the thought was sweet)

All in all, a pretty cool moment for a football starved panthers fan.

 

Dear Penthouse Forum,

 

These type of things don't usually happen to me...
