Getting to the front of the line

We were at the Summer Superstar charity hockey game last nite at the MTS centre. Toews, Tootoo and a bunch of local NHL/AHL players met with fans and signed autographs before the game. The autograph line was long and slow moving. N got all his autographs and even gave a dig to Mike Keane whose son played against N's winter hockey team. It was fun people-watching and hanging out with friends.

My girlfriend P commented on how one Mom got around a long t-shirt buying line-up at a recent Taylor Swift concert. The Mom simply walked up to the person at the front of the line and offered the teenager $20 to go next.

The girl took the cash and the Mom got her daughter the t-shirt and returned to her seat in time to see the concert.

Twenty bucks well spent I would say.

Happy weekend everyone.
