Default Got to meet Jimmy Buffet today!!!
So, I am at the Miami Heat basketball game, walking in the suite level halllway to go to the bathroom, and all of a sudden, I look up and JIMMY BUFFET is walking my way! I could have died. This man is one of my idols. Well, I told him I am sorry for stopping him but I had to ask to shake his hand, which we did. He then asked me why a 19 year old would be listening to "this old mans" music. We chatted for another 20 secs or so, and then he left. had such an amazing experience, and what a down to earth guy. He also said to stay away from the Coronas at his concerts cause Im underage

If I remember correctly, I bought the Coronas at the last Buffett concert. I don't think I was the best influence.
