David Ortiz last night. It was pretty cool, but brief. I did shake his hand and offer to buy him a drink though. 8)

In my home town of Kaukauna, about 15 min. south of Green Bay. It's a small town. He just happend to be at the same bar I was at. I called him David. My buddy is a huge Red Sox fan so he loved it.

Ortiz' wife's family is indeed from WI and they have a home there. Despite being a Dominican, he spends his winters in WI. Must be culture shock for Papi, whom I love with all my heart.
