Met him once at a buddy's party. As the story goes there is a fee for him to grace you with his presence, which was a little steep for what my friend's wife wanted to pay. She was trying to line up a meet and greet because Fleury was my friend's idol growing up. She couldn't really afford the fee at the time. After a couple email exchanges with Fleury's wife or gf or whatever, somehow Theoren himself found out about the situation and either waived or significantly reduced the price (can't remember, but I thought it was decent of him). He was a pretty good guy, shared some stories and such, stayed longer than he said he would to chat to people.
I think for me it's that nobody is going to wear 14 again. So... it's pretty much as good as retired already, and might as well make it official. Just none of this Forever a Flame nonsense they started which was a gigantic mistake IMO.
