Is it odd that I got giddy talking to Tony Dungy?

I just got off the phone with him. We do all of his computer work. He'll be stopping in to the shop tomorrow morning. Hopefully I am here when he stops by!

I've never talked to anyone famous before.

That's pretty awesome. Was he as laconic as he seems on TV or was he actually personable?

For those who don't know who Tony Dungy is, he's the Super Bowl winning former coach of the Indianapolis Colts. He also built the team Buccaneers team that Jon Gruden coached to a Super Bowl win.

I'm totally not into sports so I guess that's why I don't recognize him.

Thing you gotta realize is that they are people just like everyone else. their s*** stinks too.

I've always thought that he would be a nice guy in person.

If you want to keep him coming back, ask him how it feels to be a successful black football coach.

He lives in Lutz, FL.

His cell phone is still an Indy number.
