Hey this is so well written and so cool of you to post this! We had a great time and the food was indeed very awesome :D

Thanks again so much for the gifts and the dinner. And it is true, we had no idea what to expect from the evening or meeting total strangers but really glad we did this cause it was a lot of fun. We will definately meet again before I leave Ohio

p.s I already ate all of the choclateeeeee :D so good! and so much cheese O_O We've been trying to fit it in as much food as possible but we're gonna have a hard time finishing all the cheese :D

Cool story to read about, my friends and I met Ret at Providence, he seemed like a cool dude to hang out with. My friend also offered to buy him a pack of cigs and Ret was really thankful or something for the free pack of cigs he was getting, seemed a little shocked by his fame maybe? Idk, but it made him seem really human and not take things for granted which does set pro-gamers from pro-athletes it seems.

" I found this on the internet " is probably the best line of all time. Great writeup, I'm sure he really appreciated your gestures

That story was so awesome. I think it's so great that Ret took the time to do this, but I'm more impressed by your balls to actually message him.

Thanks for sharing your tale!
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

Not much of a Ret fan...

Until now. Mad respect. He earned my full-blown support. How nice of him.

Awesome Blog! :D

One thing though: I see one gift basket with Nutella (Germany´s most sold drug) and another one with Toblerone (Switzerlands most famous invention) and Red Bull (Austrian?) Whats the thought process behind this conspiracy?

That food looks nomnomnom

€: Turns out, Nutella is originally from Itally. Still cant envision my childhood nor my life right now without at least one toast with Nutella a day..
If you are reading this you are awesome.
