Tuggle'2 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 The Cracker Barrel incident was after a game. IDK when Turner took the turn from postgame celebration of good southern cooking to Strip Clubs however.He was drinking a cognac at Taco Mac. Fancy glass and all. That was when I realized how big that dudes legs actually are. Standing next to me? I am 5'8" 172lbs. I am not a big guy. This was 2010' so he was still muscular as all get out. You could probably put 3 of me across him. He was super nice though. I will always respect and love Turner the Falcon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOR Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Haha that's cool. Chase Coffman's little brother Cameron is one of my best friends, and Mizzou's current starting LT Justim Britt is probably the closest friend I have. As for Spoon, the one word I would use to describe him in a class would be loud.Yeah I can see that haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RYNE Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) I wish I lived in the Atlanta area. That would be so cool to just see our players out and about Edited April 4, 2013 by RYNE15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would though.Chandler is apparently at the airport a lot! lolI feel bad saying much of anything to them. I usually just wave and say Go Falcons or something along the lines. I always see them in everyday places and I know theyre just trying to live their lives like normal people. I used to see Larry Drew when I worked at Costco during college and Id always bug him with Hawks X's and O's cause he would make me help him load his Audi lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyBirdsDirtyWords Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Had a class with Bjoern Werner. Heres to hoping I can add him to the Falcons list of players I've met in real life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuggle was easy because he was there to do a Falcon sponsored thing. If the man is just grocery shopping with his kids I would think once or twice but have to say hi and you are my favorite of all time. I remember at camp when I first met Roddy and told him he was my favorite. He asks why? I was lost for words. I felt so stupid for a second and then blurted out that the way he handles himself with the media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went the year Matt Ryan was drafted and EVERYONE was all lined up to get his autograph so I walked down and had a nice conversation with Thomas Brown, Curtis Lofton, and the Beer Man for like 5 minutes cause no one was around.
