Feeling Nostalgic

[clemi]

I received a text from one of our Jokers today that touched me.... and made me think:

So many of us have become good friends over the years, thanks to connecting via the message boards or Trip Advisor or whatever that connected us.

I remember where I’ve met so many of you over the years; hard to remember exactly what year lol, but it’s been a blessing that our paths crossed.

Just taking a moment of thanks to say how lucky I’ve been to have made so great friends here.

Who else feels the same way?

It hit me in the face I spent my 27th birthday, now 35, with Caroline in Vegas. 8 Years! We have known each other a lot longer than I think we realize..time flies!

Caroline was one of the first people I met from the message boards... we were standing outside the TI venue for the first SMF meet and greet. I’m thinking this was 2011?

I remember that very first Kansas City M&G. That is where I met so many Jokers for the very first time. It went from Allen asking me "What the hell are you getting us in to?" to several years now of friendships that I cherish. I have never met a Joker that I didn't like. You guys are like family.

It’s amazing how much we enjoy everyone’s company. The first one we went to I was like fuck em I got enough friends but Laurie wanted to go and from the start we made great life long friends and I wouldn’t trade it for anything except maybe more bankroll.hhh

So agree... I had no idea that meeting you all would turn out this way!

Yes, the first M&G Mark attended in AC, he decided to go home before meeting anyone, BUT left me his BR. Think you and Allen gave me and Ida ride to airport. Also the night I hit a 4000.00 royal on my last hundred.

Now, he likes everyone he has met and gets it. Before that, he didn't quite get me checking the forum and posting pics on trips.

I feel a deep kinship to people I have met here. Would rather travel to see you guys than go out in my hometown.

Yes! And we took a break from Vics and Anthonys to smoke a cigarette. I knew right away their was a friendship. After the group dinner at Carmines, going to Borgata and playing VP with you and Chris. You kept hitting quad queens. I had to go back to GN because I was broke and thats when I hit my royal. Memories, good stuff. And for you to meet me at Graton when I went to visit my son in Petaluma for lunch was very special to me. That's when I first heard of what was to be Austin. Told you Grands change your life for the better!
