So just a funny story to tell. I guess it was funny but at the same time it made me feel kind of old. Last night I had a basketball game in Ellensburg. We were done with our game and getting back on the bus when I asked the girls on the bus if any of them had an extra coat. I had one on at the beginning of the night but one of our players got injured and needed to leave so I gave her mine so she wouldn't freeze in just her jersey. Anyways back to the bus. I had asked everyone and one of the girls ended up having one. WELL.....I am obviously a little bit bigger than most of my girls considering that none of them have had kids, oh and also because they are all freshman and sophomores. So anyways I borrow a jacket and put it on. It reminded me of the movie "Tommy Boy." So I started singing the song "fat girl (guy) in a little coat." I really couldn't move in this coat but it was something to keep me warm in the single digit weather. I continued to sing the song and my girls just looked at me wondering where I came up with this song. So then I started quoting lines from the movie. IE: Did you eat paint chips as a kid?, That's gonna leave a mark., etc. And none of the girls knew what movie this was. So needless to say us coaches had a good laugh. I proceeded to ask some of my team what year they were born. They were all born in 1993 or 1994. Well no wonder they haven't seen it. It came out in 1995. I don't think I would let my 2 or 3 year old watch that movie. After this experience I was feeling kind of old. Oh well this too shall pass-and I will just get older. If only I had a picture in the coat.
