So, yesterday I had a meeting at ESPN with the Asofsky Foundation, The Legacy Foundation and Hartford Youth Scholars to discuss our proposal for The Dream Chaser Program. Based on the response in the meeting, I feel pretty good about the possibility of us getting funded. After the meeting, we got an exclusive tour of ESPN. Now, to be honest, I wasn't expecting to be that impressed but long story short, I was! What a facility! We were able to go into the new cafeteria that opened yesterday morning where you can push your favorite teams fight song as you walk down the hall. We went on the set of Baseball Tonight and peeked in a few other studios. The best thing was, you know how in the commercials they make it seem like famous people are always walking around ESPN? Well, it's true! We walked out of one studio where Les Miles was being interviewed and Nick Saban walked down the hall right by us. What a great experience. If you ever get a chance to go and you are a sports fan, don't miss it!
