Middle Aged hacky sack

Now that all the snow is melted from the Provo trail, Forrest is out all the time with his little brothers and Dad. They love to longboard after work until it gets too dark to see.

So this weekend, I went to Sacramento to see my family over there. I forget what a little bubble Provo is until I go somewhere else. Example:THE AIRPORT!!! I tell you what, everyone goes to the airport. It is fun to see all the different walks of life. While on one of the plane's, I over heard this conversation between two mid 50 year old business men:

Business man 1: Are you ready for a 3 hour layover in San Fransisco?
Business man 2: Oh yeah, I'm always ready for layovers. I brought my hacky sack.
Me thinking:(Hacky sack...mid 50's...two guys...airport...gray hair...are they serious?)
Man 1: Hacky sack? My kids love their hacky sack. I haven't played with one of those in at least 20 years!
Man 2: Well, I haven't played with one in a few years myself, but I always bring one with me just in case. I always have one.

I just couldn't help but picture these two middle aged men in business suits at an airport terminal playing hacky sack and it almost made me laugh out loud.
