Ted, that had to be an incredible interaction. I've heard many things about Joe, both good and bad. Could only imagine what it would've been like to meet him. Is there a word for feeling wistful for a time you were never apart of?
Would love to hear some other stories of legends you've encountered over the years. Hope you've been well in the recent months.
