Are you part of the team or just up here as a fan?"
His reply was "Well, I am the head coach." I was more than slightly embarrassed.
What followed was a 2-3 minute discussion of them knowing what they are up against, what a HUGE impact our fans have in the FargoDome, and how much I enjoy watching option football ran to perfection. He fully expects the physicality to match/exceed what both teams saw in the 2012 match-up ("coach speak").
Bad news: I confirmed that I am a complete dork (but you guys already knew that).
Good news: We know where to go for a 2am "fire alarm check."
LOL -- my buddy and I did the exact thing in Frisco a few years back. Rode down the hotel elevator with Rob Ambrose (head coach at Towson). We asked him if he was a coach or something...
