But then he showed up and was immediately super friendly and invited us to see the Orchestra Pit and we were getting along so well at one point I suggested my gf take a hike and let us hang out and he laughed and clapped me good-naturedly on the back.
It probably helped that despite his impressive height and hair, I was still a much more handsome man than he was, and we both knew it from the start.
