I love that. New Orleans has some great ones. In New Orleans, I was walking down the street with my daughter and I heard a voice. I stopped dead in my tracks and there, on the other side of the street was 'Grandpa Elliott' (See him here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Us-TVg40ExM) Cara said, "What?" I said, "That's Grandpa Elliott" and she said, with exaggerated patience, "Mom, grandpa's dead and his name wasn't even Elliott...." I shot across the street and I got to speak with him on his street corner. One of the many highlights of the trip for me.
