I think the first student that I knew from the forums and met (that I can remember) was Jtosh Hambright, way back in the day (at least, if he wasn't the first, he is the furthest back that I can remember). I met a whole ton of people at the 2003 IRI, so it's kind of hard to really remember. I think the first mentor that I met from these forums was JVN... when he handed me a camera and asked me to take a picture of himself, Andy Baker, and Big Mike.

Side Note.... At a later point, I watched Brandon walking around and nobody seem to know who he was. It just blew my mind.

Wow! Someone 'lucked out' by meeting me.
It was awesome to meet you!
I have a funny story about meeting Brandon... I didn't know whom he was either until someone whispered and pointed him out to me. I was too scared to really talk to him, knowing who he was and all. So instead of a formal introduction, I ran up to him, said, 'Hi! I'm Amanda Morrison, it's nice to meet you.' and practically ran away. The whole day, I got to brag that I met Brandon Martus!
