Periodically my family attends random awesome sporting events…usually because D gets us tickets. For example, one year we went to the UVA/Tech game the day after Thanksgiving. It was D’s first year at UVA, and she got us tickets. Today’s tennis match is another example. I’m a little fuzzy on what the exact deal is, but it involves her law firm and a kids’ chorus that was going to perform.
But basically, we ended up with really awesome seats at a team tennis match in which Serena Williams was playing. Watching her play was really awesome. Unfortunately she didn’t sign any autographs for people in the crowd. On her team was an Indian tennis player named something Paes….I’m a little hazy on the facts surrounding him. I know he has played with Serena in mixed doubles before, and I know he’s really good, and my only fun fact about him is that he’s Malayali. Beyond that, though, i don’t have any details. Dad got his autograph, but you couldnt really see it well. So after the match I got an autograph that was actually visible for dad.
