    Apparently look like some famous Chicago athlete(s).

    While ice skating with my oldest son yesterday, I had 2 different kids come over to say hello. One said 'hello, go Bears!" and asked his dad to snap my photo, the other said "go Blackhawks!" and asked for my autograph. I politely told them I wasn't who they thought I was and gave the kids a high-five. Unfortunately, word must have spread as most of the kids, and adults on the ice started snapping photos.

    I have to think they thought I was either Zach Miller from the Bears (lol, I'm 5'8") or Patrick Sharpe from the Hawks. That at least I could see, except for the fact that I don't skate all that well. Seems like that would have been a dead giveaway that I'm not a pro hockey player.
