Ended up finding out last week after watching WSAZ that former New England Patriots player and 3 time Super Bowl champ Troy Brown was set to be the Grand Marshall of the 2009 Marshall Homecoming Parade. After finding this out and finding out that the parade was scheduled for today, I decided to take a walk to downtown Huntington,WV this afternoon after my classes to see if Troy Brown would be in town before they started lining up all the guests for the 2009 Marshall homecoming parade. After walking around downtown for about 30 minutes, I end up seeing Troy at a restaurant near Pullman Square. When I walked by, he noticed my New England Patriots sweatshirt so I stopped and pointed it out to him. I guess he knew I was looking for him as since I was on the outside of the restaurant waiting and he was on the inside and just finished eating, he signaled something along the lines mentioning he would be right out. After waiting outside the restaurant for another 2-3 minutes, Troy comes out and here is how I did with Troy in West Virginia of all places lol:

That is all I have to share here resultwise from today.
This is easily one of my favorite successes of the year as I am a big Patriots fan and he was the Grand Marshall of the Marshall Homecoming Parade this year. Its so nice to finally get one of my favorite NFL players for a change!!!
That is all I have to share here for today. Thanks alot for looking and GO PATRIOTS!!!
