OT: What Are Your Other Hobbies?

[frikativ54]

I was just curious what you all like to do for fun, when you are not collecting game-used memorabilia. Please share your stories; I would be interested to read them.

I like to run in my spare time. I am not fast by any means and do not race competitively. I took up running about 2 1/2 years ago and do it for my health and also because it's fun and a great way to relieve stress.

I actually just completed my second marathon last weekend (see May Pickups thread for photo of me in action) and have run in some other races like half-marathons, 10K's, etc.

I used to play a lot of music (bass guitar), mostly alternative type rock. One band I was in opened for Nickelback, another I was in opened for Helmet. That was before I got married and had a family, which is a hobby all in it's own!

Helmet kicks a$$! I love that band and saw them a bunch of times. Was Paige Hamilton cool?

Aside from collecting game worn jerseys I am a car nut. Here's a couple of my hot rods.

I have to tell you he was cool as all heck. He hung out with us backstage, we just kind of sat there stupid because he had been an idol of all of ours for years. But yes he was very cool. I still have my autographed Aftertaste tour T-Shirt!

Don't know if you ever heard of a band called Prong, we opened for them and their drummer, Ted Parsons, was very cool as well. Also hung out with Zakk Wylde when he was in town with Pride and Glory (we didn't open for them) and he was very cool, also.

Nickelback, on the other hand, let's just say I never spoke with them...

Holy crap I can't believe you just mentioned Prong! I just listened to Cleansing a few times today. I met Zakk a few times and he is definitely a cool and friendly guy. Glad to hear Paige was a good guy too. Helmet has always been one of my favorites regardless of who is in the band at any particular time.

And to think, I am a car nut, too. Maybe we were separated at birth!!

Thanks. The top one is a fully documented 70 GTO Judge. The other one is an 05 Vette. Both are a blast to drive for different reasons. The Vette is just plain fast as hell and while the Goat runs well it is just pure American muscle. Good luck in your quest for the Nova!
