I thought I would share this. One of my best friends was on an Alaskan Cruise a week ago and ran into Mark Rypien on it. My friend was at the piano bar, and he's actually a really good harmonica player, but also a die-hard dallas fan, and he went up and played along with the piano guys for a few songs. Mark came up to him and told him how much he enjoyed his playing and offered to buy him a beer. My friend told him after they introduced themselves that he may not want to since he was a dallas fan, jokingly bought he did anyway. He saw him a few more times over the week and drank some beers with him. My friend told me what a nice guy he was and he also got his autograph and gave it to me as a surprise.

Always good to hear when these guys turn out to be genuine and nice.
