When he got the tickets last week he seemed overly excited, obviously. How awesome because of the London schedule he was able to meet his favorite in person!

Although, the kid doesn't seem to happy in the video with Gurley. What's going on at the end of the video? Looks like they've both been put in "Time-Out"! LOL

All the people and cameras are freaking the kid out a bit. Poor guy can't relax and enjoy meeting his hero. Hopefully they had some more satisfying moments together when all the cameras went away.

That’s just being a kid. I was a huge wrestling fan as a kid and Sting was my favorite wrestler. He actually went to high school with a family friend and arranged a meet and greet with him for me. I was ecstatic leading up to it and nervous and shy once I met him. I kind of just stood there lol

Dude seemed like a super fan.
My wife almost got arrested at a Cardinals game for jumping a barrier and running at Kurt Warners car

Holy shit. Was she screaming insanely? I instantly got a funny image of a woman doing a Gurley hurdle over the barrier and screaming Kurt's name as she knocked people over with her best stiff arms.and shoulder blocks.

Just in case you didn't see the video that caused all the emotion....




Are these guys for real? They tell him he's going to the game just before they get to the stadium? Man I would have told my son the the second i bought the ticket so he could look forward to the day and enjoy the whole experience.

I'm with you Kurt! I know surprises can be fun, but I think they are overrated. People contort themselves sometimes to conceal the secret, that they cause stress and fights just for some "moment" that they build up in their head to be great.

Tell the kid! Then look forward to it with him and plan the event. This poor kid is a ball of nerves. Looks like a pageant kid performing to please his parents. Inside he wants to scream.

She was down there for work. Flying back Sunday night. Decided to go the game by herself to watch Warner play.
She got there early. Was hanging out talking to a security guard, just chatting about working there, what players are cool or not etc.
Different players come in. The security guy says "Here comes Kurt now." She went over the concrete barrier (thigh high) where the players pull in and was running toward his car yelling something, she doesn't remember.
The security guard gives chase, Kurt stopped and rolled his window down....only about 4 inches. She does (I'm sure) the super fan weird thing of saying something inane and Kurt laughed and said "Thanks". Now the security guard is there and takes her by the arm and says "Now I gotta get the cops."
Kurt told him it was fine and to not do anything. The security guy was not happy. Kurt made him promise he wouldn't call the cops, then said "It was nice meeting you....laughs....I have to go to work." And pulls away. Security guard to my wife "Ok. Please go wait somewhere else until you're ready to go into the stadium."
Haha.
Kurt was nice and cool when he didn't need to be.
And to think when I get home my reception is more along the lines of "Did you walk the dog this morning?"
