I went to National Sport's bar in Anaheim to watch the pre-season game against the Eagles. This is where our fan club meets during the regular season. There were only a few of us there last night and we found out that Lonnie Paxton's parents were there. They live in Corona, CA and came to the Sport's Bar, because they were the only place that was able to get the game. They were very cool and very gracious with some of us Patriot fans going over to meet them. Lonnie gave all his SB rings to his Dad. When I told him that 2001 was my favorite SB win and his son doing the "snow angel" under the goal post was one of my favorite Patriot memories, he said " Here, check this out." He pulls out a bag from his pocket and hands me the 2001 SB ring. And I am staring at this beatiful peice of jewelry he then pulls the 2003 SB ring of his finger and gave that to me also. I am glad I had my camera with me. They let everyone try them on and were very talkative with all. I was so excited that I did not realize that I had one ring upside down.
