Skater picture with a cute story....
I had never heard of Hann-McCurdy and Coreno before this year's Skate America. There, I really liked their free skate, even though I could see their technical flaws. During the free dance zam break, they were out in the crowd talking and signing some autographs, so I went over to tell them that myself and who I was sitting with, we had liked them best so far. Mike Coreno smiled and said thank you, and we talked a few more minutes. Later that day, after the dance event (and that amazing dance by Denkova/Staviski), I saw them again, and he smiled and I said, "Ok, maybe you were my second favorite then!" He laughed and said that was still good, and we talked a few more minutes. He said they would be at Skate Canada, just as observers, and "maybe we'll see you there".
So FFWD to Skate Canada....on the last day of competition, I did see them there, and they both stopped me and said hi, and we talked and I wished them good luck in France. Saw him after the exhibition, and said, "Ok, with all this talking to you, I still never got a good photo, may I please take a picture?" No clue where Allie was, but I took a very nice photo of Michael, and then he pulled out his digital camera and asked my friend to take a photo of the two of us together. I was thinking, oh my, why on earth would you want that??
Anyway, now I've found out. Last week, in my email, I got a nice e-card for Christmas from him, and another email saying "check out this link, and happy holidays". What a sweetie!
So, they have a fan for life now, and I have a (terrible) picture online somewhere with Michael Coreno!

With a longer beard and glasses.

Aww, Mathman, you look awesome in that picture. Your mom is so adorable too! Thanks for posting the pics and thanks also to Kasey for posting her picture with Michael! :agree:
Just to get this back on topic a bit, I think everyone here knows I'm a huge fan of Amanda Evora & Mark Ladwig (the website in the signature is probably a big tip off, LOL) and in the summer of 2005, I had the pleasure of meeting them for the first time. Here's that picture from the Indy Challenge in August 2005.

And while I'm on the topic of favorite pairs teams, here's another of my fave pics from that same summer when I met two other people at the Mariposa Gala who I admire a great deal.
