MATT EPPERSON, ELEFANTI WR (Frantic): Pronto.
JJ: Its me – you don’t have to answer in Italian. Where are you guys?
MATT: We’re stuck.
JJ: What do you mean you’re stuck?
MATT: Well, we got picked up for practice 20 minutes ago – then as we were driving away from our house, all of a sudden a PARADE rolled by and everyone stopped. It’s like a parking lot!
JJ (laughing hard): Are you serious? How do you get blindsided by a parade? I mean, it’s not like they just pop up out of nowhere! In Catania, parades do and will pop up at a moments notice… similar to pick-up basketball games in New York City… Especially at the height of the Saint Agatha celebration>
MATT: Dude… all I know is that one second we were driving, and the next minute balloons and people are going passed us – 20 cars in front of us and 100 cars behind us just instantly parked in the middle of street – and just hopped out to follow the parade. And now we’re trapped!
JJ (laughing harder): Face it… that is hilarious… what are you gonna do?
MATT: Wait it out I guess…
JJ: It’s not like it’s a monsoon. You seriously just got stuck in a parade?
MATT: No joke.
JJ: Only in Catania…
Matt jumped right in and won the first “gasser” sprint without warming up or stretching. Good job Mr. Dedication>
