That's different from me now.

Those are gone. This guy took it from me.

Yeah, pretty much. Oh, bad times. So, Iowa was playing UNC in the Big Ten ACC Challenge, and me and my little brother went. And Iowa beat UNC. They never should have. It was one of the worst basketball games I've ever seen in my life. Like, it was genuinely a terrible game. But I'm from North Carolina, so it was super exciting because me and my brother never get to see Iowa play.

I believe it was the first time that UNC had lost at home as a ranked team to an unranked team. It was a crazy upset that wasn't even important. It was like a Tuesday in December. It was the Big Ten AC Challenge. Who cares? And we're sitting there, and me and my brother are celebrating. And this guy turns around. He's sitting in front of me, and he's like, you're the reason UNC lost.

And I was like, um, no, sir, I'm sorry. Like, it was just, you know, you can't win them all, whatever. I'm 16.

Yeah, but imagine me looking. I actually pretty much look 16 right now.

I looked 12 at the time, which is important for the story, actually. So he's like, you're the reason UNC lost. I'm like, hey, man, no, I'm not. I didn't do anything. And I was really nice. Like, I was like, hey, I'm sorry. Like, you know, these things happen. And he was like, who do you think you are coming to a basketball game cheering like that? I said,

I feel like this is the one socially acceptable place for me to do that. And, like, I'm a kid. I'm like, and he's got to be in his 70s. Like, he's got a sweater vest on. And so I'm like, um, you know, it's, I'm sorry, sir. It's just a basketball game. Like, we never get to see our favorite team. Like, and they won. Like, it's a big deal for us. And he hits me. What? I know. I was a child.

I was a baby. So he shoves me. He pushes me back into my seat. I'm like, what?

So I'm like, what? I was just hit by an old man. And his wife was like, oh, no. But these lovely Iowa fans had come and sat with us during the game. So one of them was a professor of law at Wake Forest. And she was like, hey, man, you just assaulted a 12-year-old, which, by the way, we had been talking the whole game. And I was like, oh, she's thought I was 12 years old this whole time.
