Tammy’s Story – 1.27.07.
August 18, 2007
This is the story from the second time I met John Cena. It was once again at The Washington Auto Show, exactly one year later, January 27th, 2007.
Well, the big downfall was that it was rushed. 1 thing per person, no posed photographs. But aside from that, it turned out to be much better than the first time. I wasn’t shy. I walked right up to him and spoke to him.
For those who don’t know, I made a scrapbook for him. I worked really hard on it though. There were various things in there, such as letters, graphics, and the picture of us from the year before. I wanted to make something special. I know I’m not the first or last to do something like that, but I still wanted to do that for him.
Here’s pretty much what happened. This might not be exactly word for word, but it’s close enough.
[I walk up & shake his hand.]
Tammy: Hey, John…
John: [He greeted me, but I was still talking lol.]
Tammy: I made this for you.
[I gave him the book].
John: Oh what is this?”
Tammy: It’s like a scrapbook.
John: Oh I love that kind of stuff! Thank you!
[He signed my magazine.]
Tammy: Can I have a hug?
John: Sure!
[So he leans over the table & hugs me, & as he does he goes...]
John: Thank you for the book.
Tammy: You’re welcome.
Then I walked away. I was bummed over not getting a picture with him, but at the same time, I was [and still am] proud. It was a short conversation, but atleast I talked to him without being nervous. I can be very shy, so that’s a big deal to me. I think if I meet him again I’ll be just fine. ![]()
