On Wednesday at Keeneland, I am standing in front of the gift shop, wearing my Steelers jacket, waiting to hook up with the other DT'ers. This large man walks by, notices my Steeler attire and says "hi". I looked at him and said "Dermonti Dawson ???" to which he replied "yes I am." He was with his business partner and said that they just came over to catch a few races. He stayed and talked for a few minutes and was as nice as could be!!! It was just too weird.
That's cool
I've been a Steelers fan since I was ten, great to know that my fellow partner is a fan of the "Black & Gold".
Too bad Dee Tee silks weren't that color!
