But then some PJ fans are freakin’ A-MAY-ZING!!!
Hi all, I’m the fan that was so bummed last weekend because someone stole my new PJ sweatshirt from my tray as it went through airport security.
You guys were sympathetic & comforting and I appreciated the support a lot.
But then one of you... Mikemzl91... you piped up with “Hey, sorry to hear that. I have one of those in your size, I’ll mail it to you. Heck, I’ll even throw in a t-shirt your size from Seattle 2013.” Like, WHAT??? Incredible!
He didn’t ask for anything in return, and wouldn’t even let me pay postage!!
Less than a week later, look what arrived today!! [Writing this on my phone, gonna have to upload pic separately cuz I’m useless]
I just don’t even know what to say beyond a GIANT THANK YOU MIKE!!! You just made me so grateful once again to be part of this incredible fan community.
Despite the really bummer stories of “Fans Behaving Badly” of late, always important to remember that the vast majority of PJ fans are the best fans there are.
And a a few are rare gems for sure, like Mikemzl91. Thanks Mike!!!

And @Mikemzl91, in case it helps you feel even better about your gift to me as well, I ran half of an entire city's foster care/child welfare program and now help the most at-risk kids in another major city's schools to have the right supports provided. So once again, if you are happy to help do-gooders, I'd say I'm a do-gooder too and thanks, you really brought a smile!

I was disappointed N2 in Chicago because I saw some really bad behaviors, in the concourses where it was humid and there were packed masses of humanity who were all uncomfortable. The reconfigured, post evacuation pit was also cringe worthy because it also showed the worst in people. People giddy they got one on people who waited all day and those salty they lost their spots.
However, I focused on the good of the weekend. To the person who met my wife and I where we chatted for a while at Murphy's, to him grabbing me a Thomas poster cause he knew I wanted it. The shows were incredible, and the people who just talked about the different experiences they've had made it worth the trip. I won't let some bad moments ruin an entire trip.
