Yes, you are a celebrity.

He said JJW was inside an elevator, Gord was outside. JJ threw it out, Gord threw it back, and that continued until the elevator doors closed. When it was done, Gord had the jacket!

Many thanks Jenney for giving a better answer than the one I was about to post.I have to admit that I failed to hear theword "elevator" and asumed it was JJW's dressing room door but your versioon makes much more sense.I think he also a added that he wore the same jacket on the Gord''s Gold 2 cover,I do not have it handy to check so is that
correc??

[KHester]

Sounds like everyone's having a great time at Massey. Thanks for all the reporting.
John, the jacket could be on Gord's Gold. On the US version of Gord's Gold 2 he's wearing a sweater.
