... When you're at the Atlanta airport waiting in the line to go through security. You see Woody and a woman (who you assume is his wife) talking, standing in the opposite line (the ATL airport has two lines, they snake around each other, etc...). You watch Woody as he goes through the security lines, seeing how close he'll get to you so that you can get his autograph (on a printed-out sheet of HW no less). Finally, right at the end, he's as close to you as he's been, and you reach across another line to hand him the paper and a pen. He signs it, and goes into security. You gloat to your team that you got Woody's autograph. Then, after the team has gone through, you see Woody standing there. The team goes over and mobs him. ~5 people pull out their boarding pass envelopes and have him sign those. Someone on the team finds a button in their bag, and someone else pulls an unworn shirt out of their carryon. You give them to him, and let him go (this is after like 10 mins). After he leaves, your coach comments that everyone else in security probably went through scratching their heads in confusion because they couldn't figure out who he was but we were treating like a rockstar/celebrity/______.
^^- so much fun...
