My first Patriots game experience (Pats vs Bucs)

[Fencer]

There's an annual charity game in the town where I live (Acton). Pats vs. firefighters. A few current and past Pats go. The year I took my nephew, the Pats weren't exactly big stars -- but they all were very gracious about autographs after the game. Guys there included rookie Gostowski, young Cassell, Eric Alexander, and an ST DB whose name I forget and who is now gone, even though he made a really favorable impression on me at the time.

I made a point out of exchanging a few sentences with each them, as an example to the intimidated 10-year-old I had with me. Every conversation went well.

Mike Vrabel was nice to me.
Got my No. 50 autographed.
