Last Night at the US Open

From left: Adam Rippon (Gold Medal figure skating), Brian Vahally( tennis), two lovely women from tennis doubles who are lovers (I cannot pronounce there names. I think Dutch) Jason Collins (first out basketball player), Billie Jean King, Billy Bean (baseball) and the announcer (who's very nice, but who's name I forget)

Last night the US Open had a Pride event. That is, they hosted a panel discussion about the changing norms of being gay and being allowed to play professional sports. It was a fascinating talk, and I got to meet some very cool people afterwards,

 It was cool and afterward we meet some people we look up to.
