Uncle_Rico Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 So you're taking off now? That might be a good bet...If it was in fact a 2 hour flight it could be touching down shortly. What happened to Rico?? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm just getting ready to head out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxyeahyeah Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I guess it wouldn't hurt to case the joint. I suppose if no one else is there we can always hide so we don't look like idiots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for a dark colored Ford Windstar mininvan, the official vehicle of PCM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that you talking to Eades in front of the Ralph, if so, what did he have to say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCM Posted April 10, 2005 Author Share Posted April 10, 2005 Timing, as they say, is everything. I got out to the airport around 2:30 a.m. not long after the charter flight arrived. Was that "siouxyeahyeah" I saw parked and watching? Unfortunately, the plane was out on the tarmac and unaccessable to the general public. A UND bus drove up to the plane to unload the team. Their gear was loaded into a truck. Both vehicles took off and I headed back into town. And, yes, I saw "Uncle Rico" pass me in his red car on the way back. Three vehicles passed us and turned south towards the Ralph. Rico and I followed them. One stopped in the north parking lot. I recognized Cary Eades as he got out, so I pulled up to say a few words. I'm sure I triggered a "WTF?" moment when I stopped and got out of my van. I shook his hand and told him how proud he and the team made UND, Grand Forks and all of North Dakota. We only spoke briefly. I knew he was tired and probably wanted to get home. But he did give me a great line for my sig below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I turned out to be some lady that gave me a weird look like "WTF you what". So I got the hell outta there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCM Posted April 10, 2005 Author Share Posted April 10, 2005 Time to hit the hay. It's awfully late for an old fart to be up. Nice to almost meet you, Uncle Rico. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagies Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 That's a great quote by Eades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwing77 Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 That's a great quote by Eades. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ditto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxyeahyeah Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I was trailing the bus by a few hundred yards but when I saw it drive into a restricted area I gave up and went back home. I figured I wouldn't be able to see or talk to anyone and didn't want to look like a stalker, so I just took off. It's nice you got to talk to Eades...what a class act, the whole lot of them.
