So I get to my last job in Aspen, and while prepping the rug I'm cleaning, I look up and see the Claret Jug and The Havermeyer trophy! My jaw hit the floor and I start looking at all the names engraved it them.

Im pretty much losing mind and now wondering who the homeowner is (the property manager is my contact) who would have both of these gems in his dining room.

Next thing I know, Justin Leonard comes walking in the door. I immediately introduce myself and start going on about how those two beauties are the coolest items I've ever seen in a house I was working in and ask if I could take a picture of them. He counters my proposal with,

"Well, do you want to get the two of us in the picture with them?"

Um, yeah!!!

I wasnt expecting much more than to stand next to them on the shelf. But he ups the ante even more and hands me the Claret Jug!!! I'm holding the freaking Claret Jug!!!

Ive pretty much completely lost my mind at that point but held it together enough to express my total gratitude for his awesome gesture.

Whether he knows it or not, he made a fan out of me.

I can die now.
