I don't know if you'd call it meeting him, but he was walking around in the parking lot just before a game in 2003. He seemed like he was just wandering around, expriencing the tailgating. Kotter and I saw him and I think we said hello and he responded in kind. But I always thought it was the coolest thing that the team's owner would be wandering in the parking lot, stopping at tailgate parties just before the game. Lamar was one of those people who made Kansas City unique. The city will miss him sorely.
