Yellow Jacket Guy

You know how you go somewhere like a wedding, church, a restaurant or anywhere and you find that one person you cannot stop staring at? You try your best not to stare you try to get your attention directed to something else, but you just cannot help but stare. And it is not because they are cute or anything--it is because they are SUPER goofy. Well that happened to me this weekend.

David, Lauren, Garrett and I went to Linda Hellstein, a college friend’s, wedding this past weekend at Historic Camden. Right when we all sat down, our attention went straight over to this goofy guy sitting across from us. Not only did he remind me of Patrick Norton, my Lugoff-Elgin friends will know who I’m talking about, but he was wearing this pastel yellow vintage-looking sport coat, which reminded me of Dr. Fisher’s famous vintage blue sport coat he wore everyday to Media Law. Anyways, all of us noticed him and of course I couldn’t keep my eyes off of him. Every time he made a move, my eyes went straight too him, just waiting for him to do something. Most people at the wedding opted to sit in the back because there was more shade, but in the back you couldn’t really hear anything. So what did Yellow Jacket Guy do during the wedding? Gets up and walks down the aisle to get a closer seat because he couldn’t hear. Whenever I saw him get up out of his seat, I grabbed David’s arm and was like, OMG what is he about to do? It ended up to be harmless, but still I was nervous he was about to run up to the front and say he objected or something. After the ceremony was over, we were all standing in the back talking to Josh and who comes up beside us? Yes, Yellow Jacket Guy. What do I notice beside his horrendous outfit?? He is wearing TEVA sandals. Yes, you heard me right, TEVAs. I haven’t seen someone wearing Teva sandals in probably ten years, well besides when I went white water rafting. But NEVER to a wedding. If anyone doesn’t know what Teva sandals are, go look them up.

So we get to the reception at the TenEleven Galleria and who do I start looking for when we get there, Yellow Jacket Guy, which I tried to switch his name to Teva Boy, but my crew was getting confused to whom I was talking about. When Yellow Jacket Guy got there he showed us some of his dance moves and that he knew how to shake his bum bum. I enjoyed watching how he devoured all the Hors D’oeuvres, which consisted of cheese cubes, Ritz crackers and baby sweet and dill pickles. So how he stayed so long at that table and continued to go back to that table just blew my mind. But anyways Yellow Jacket Guy or Teva Boy made my night.

Its little things like that, that just make you smile and makes your night. Whoever Yellow Jacket Guy is, I was truly grateful you were at the wedding because you made me smile!
