Actually, I won a contest in 2003 to travel to the next years DNC (making it 2004). Among the specifics of the prize was a lunch with Barack and his staffers at, of all places, Hooters. We had a great time discussing politics, current events and who had the largest hooters at Hooters. My friend Peter came too. He enjoyed himself, as Hooters is one of his favorite restaurants. After, we were invited back to Obama's hotel to party the night away except we had already made plans to visit Al Gore's hotel! I know right?
As far as the 'Calgarian hockey fan' comment, I feel this is unfair. My house did not have access to the internet before March of 2007. This made it very difficult to join a message board which is primarily, if not entirely dependent upon the internet. I can assure you that Calgarypuck was the first site I visited after signing up for CadVision in 2007, and remains the only site I have
ever visited to this day.
What was your first experience with Obama like?
