I don't know if you want to hear a long one.
I have a long story.
How much time do we got?
Yeah, so we... I do.
I have one thing that happened to me that I... I don't even know if it's paranormal or not.
I would say that it likely...
feels close.
And in a way, people think it's like the reason I started doing Mr. Ballin, but it's totally coincidental.
I have exactly one time that I had something strange happen to me.
And it also happens to be one of the first stories I told on the internet that went pretty viral.
But it's not why I do this.
It's just happenstance.
Here we go again.
So when I was 16 years old, I was big into snowboarding.
And I had these two buddies of mine who both were named Nick.
And one of them, his nickname was Wolf, like the animal wolf.
And so for the sake of the story, there's Nick and there's Wolf.
And the three of us, we snowboarded together all the time.
So I grew up just south of Boston, Massachusetts.
And I lived in a town called Quincy.
