It would have happened at a preseason game against the Phoenix Coyotes in September of 2002.
The only response I got was from the usual wisenheimers accusing me of "gaying" up the site.
So now I'm going to try again...
I was hosting this Turkish dude named Mustafah for a couple of weeks and I took him to a preseason game. I had just bought a Red Wings jersey I had found for $14 at a vintage clothing store in Hollywood. I wasn't looking for it... nor would I have ever worn it... but hey..... $14 for a jersey? How could I pass on that?
Anyway... he wore the Red Wing jersey to the game because it was the only jersey I owned that was close to Turkeys colors (red n white).
During the 1st intermission he stepped out to smoke a cigarette and came back saying some drunk Kings fan offered to trade jerseys with him. The Kings fan reasoned that it would be better to send him back to Turkey with a Kings jersey rather than the hated Red Wings jersey. So he offered to make the trade despite the fact that his girlfriend had bought him the Kings jersey he was wearing.
They made the trade.
Now seriously.........
WHERE THE HELL IS THIS GUY??? I've been half heartedly looking for him for 5+ years now.
Someone has to know him...
right? |
