So still lower bowl.

You did.

I went to the CBS, which was a block away from Atlantic Video, where the original PTI studio was.

And I had to get Hershey's chocolates.

Good.

Because that was your snack of choice.

I remember the first day that I met you was probably three or four weeks before the show hit air.

And I was sitting in the newsroom with the very small group that we had that had been working.

And you walked into the newsroom.

And I think truly it was the first time that I had heard you speak.

And you looked at the group and you said...

I hope you all are renting and not buying.

Yeah, and that was probably the first time that we met.

But I remember so much about it.

I was an undergrad at the University of Maryland for those first two years of PTI, fall of 2001 through 2003.

And it was the greatest experience of my life because I was taking classes.

I was broadcasting games for the student radio station in Maryland.

And I would take the Metro there to the Atlantic video studios and three or four, sometimes five days a week, I would work with you and with Mike and Kelleher and ride home and everybody else.

And I just felt like a King because as a 2021 year old,

To have that experience with a show that was blossoming very quickly, it kind of just made me feel like I belonged in the world of sports.
