The Return of the 99 Cent Cena Fan

Ok I'm taking a new approach to this blog. Plus this blog references something that happened to me last year. Since I'm assuming that the people that are reading this blog are not familiar with my previous blog I will post it on here for your enjoyment.

Originally posted on myspace on Sunday, June 1st, 2008. The story happened to me on May 30th.

I was at the 99 Cents store yesterday and I was wearing my Cena shirt. At the check out line I wanted to know how much some candy was. The guy at the checkout told me they were 4 for 99 cents so I ran back to candy aisle to get another candy. When I get back into the line he asks me if I like John Cena. I thought he was going to say he hates Cena or something like that. But he said he's a Cena fan too. Then he started listing Cena's moves. He said he likes the 5 Knuckle Shuffle which is my favorite Cena move too. He started to brush off his shoulder like Cena does. He asked me if I've seen Cena live, but then my mom (who was with me) said that I waited 8 hours to meet him. He said he waited 10 hours to meet Cena and have him sign a shirt at a house show. He told me he likes Cena because he's respectful to the fans. When we left I was thinking about telling the guy some silly or trite Cena phrase like "Word Life", but I didn't. The funny thing is that he's a male fan who's over the age of 10. So they do exist! I met this fan in person and not over the internet.

This reminded me of when I bought some shoes last year and I was wearing a Cena shirt and the guy who worked at the store asked me if I also liked The Rock. I said no because I didn't really follow wrestling when he was around.


Well today I was back at that same 99 cents store wearing that same Cena shirt. (I have 2 different Cena shirts) The only reason I was wearing it was because it was clean. Ever since I moved I just wear whatever I find that is clean. When I walked in the store I thought I saw that guy, but it was so long ago I wasn't sure. I just shook it off. Later I noticed when I was at the regester he was the cashier. I remember it was the same guy because he has an uncommon name. He sees my Cena shirt and asks if I'm a fan. It's the same situation over again. I don't mind or anything. I don't want to be snobby. I tell him didn't we meet before? I was like I ran out of line to buy some candy. He remembered that. Two things I love John Cena and candy.
