So I put my suit on for business meetings in downtown Denver today, to meet a business colleague downtown for lunch. Now 16th Street Mall downtown Denver can be a weird place these days with the marijuana non-laws, there are a lot of homeless and vagabonds. Really it is like the land of the mutants at times.
Anyway walking to the restaurant, I did notice a rather weird guy walking and talking jibberish, but trying to talk to people. He was a thin young guy about 30 years old, 6 ft tall, longer hair and a trim beard, carrying a backpack. He said something to a younger black lady, I didn't make it out because I was a ways away but she looked at him with a "how did you know, what is going on, fearful" kind of look and walked away from him.
Anyway, I realized I missed the restaurant and it was on the other side of the street so I turned to go back across the street and this young guy is right there standing in front of my face. I looked at him and it was like he was there but not there. He then took his arm, put his hand on my shoulder and said, "Do not buy a Corvette nor a Mustang, you need to buy a Viper", then removed his hand, walked off muttering something quietly then yelling jibberish again. I was so startled I just stood there when he briefly put his hand on my shoulder face to face.
WTF just happened, I had nothing on me to indicate about my cars, was not on the phone talking, wasn't wearing anything to say I liked this brand or that, I was in a suit. Now I have Mustangs at home and a Viper, been thinking of picking up another Saleen Mustang, never considered a Corvette, but have been working my ass off to try to pick up a used Gen V to add to my mini collection.
Honestly, it has thrown my whole day off as I was literally stunned by the whole encounter. I never met this guy before. He stunk BO so bad, I am sure he had not showered for weeks or months. He was just one of those very off bum types we seem to see so much of here in parts of Colorado these days. What has me baffled is that of all the things to say, why that? Why not, have you got change, money or this or that? Why say what, I have literally been pondering in my mind for months? Made the hair stand up on my neck.
Honestly fellows, I am struggling with this encounter and the content, circumstances all afternoon and evening. Anyone experience anything like this before? Just so weird and freaky! Never had an experience like this before in my life.
