I had made a big pink sign that said "Marry Me Gord"...we were kind of far back from the stage, so I don't think he saw it. But, he did see it when I met him, and he dug it He made a comment about how I would be "Old lady number 7...or something like that" - it kinda shocked me but made me laugh too. Then I told him I've been listening to his music my whole life, and I love him. He signed my CD, and said, "Since you love me so much, I think I'll sign it "Love Gordon Lightfoot" how's that?" My knees went weak, and that was the closest I've ever come to fainting in my life. As we were walking back to the car, my friend had to hold me up because I was crying so hard. It was such an emotional experience, I don't think I'll ever forget it.
