@MillyG1O ahhhhhhhhh Millyyyyyy. first of all I can’t stop smiling. bc as you know (or not) this was my first time actually talking to him and being that close to him!!! and secondly, this all came as a surprise. i honestly was not expecting this AT ALL. but anyway, so we were sitting there minding our own business and i had no idea what was going on in the game LOL. i was actually looking around hoping to see David hehe. and then, girl it was HOT lol. we had been there for about an hour and a half and no david. of course i knew i’d see him when he came out and sing so i was okay 
then i saw a whole bunch of people running towards the front. and i was like hey i wonder whats going on. THEN THEN I see his beautiful face standing there! i felt my heart drop!! omg. haha. 
without a second of doubt I “walked very quickly” towards him. we were already sitting pretty close anyway 
my friend laughed at me bc she said she had never seen me move so fast rofl #embarrassing but when i got there i didn’t know what to do! i didn’t have a pen so he ccould sign a ball they had given us and my friends didn’t come with me so they could take the pic of me and him D: so im just standing there right in front of him staring at him while other people get autographs and pictures…(i honestly think he looked at me once like there was something wrong with me) but my hands were shaking as i tried to take some pics of him. so when he was finally done i said “can I shake your hand?” #HUGEDORK and he said “oh sure” and smiled and took my hand ekfneifjeifie I can only imagine my expression oh gosh. xD then I waved at my sister to come take a pic of us but when she got there he had to leave 
she took it but you only see me and his back LOL but he said he’d be back. so we went back to our seats and about half an hour later he came out to sing. it was of course wonderful! when he was done he took pictures with some troops and cheerleaders i think then he left so i thought he was gone for good. then i’m absentminded thinking about what had just happened when janie tells me “look there he goes again!” so i go up there again but this 
time there is a huge fence between us -_- lol. he sees me and other people but i don’t think he was sure if he had time or if they would let him but he decided to go and he went straight towards me hehe http://twitpic.com/5nw40g so i asked him “can i take a picture with you” and of course he said yeahhhhhh. duhhh hahaha xD jk. this time my sister was ready and omg milly he is smiling hard in the picture <33333 i love him. (also my sister took the picture REALLY close >.< ) there were other people waiting for him so i only had time to say thank you. and he went all around the stadium taking pictures with people! he's so nice. and when he was singing he was singing facing our side hehe we were seriously in the perfect spot so at times he would flicker his eyes towards us (my friends and i) and ughhhhh he's so great. so yeah that's pretty much it. LOL. sorry it's a lot xD
We posted a few more of Yvette’s photos last night HERE.

Hey! I love your story and actually I had to tell you that I had to steal your pic of David
The thing is that I wanted to talk about David’s performance of God Bless America at the event and I just couldn’t find any better pic than the one you took! Anyways, just in case you want to check out my review, I will leave here the link of the post I did about David’s performance! Once again, thanks for the pic!
