Random meetings with other Dons fans.

The peerless Ellas McDaniel's work is unlikely to have penetrated Scotland's NE in 1962, never mind the cultural consciousnesses of fitba players whose "favourite singers" in Pittodrie programme pen pics were usually Frankie Laine, Doris Day and Kenneth McKellar.

Any excuse for a bit of Bo, though. This song's imagery wouldn't be out of place in an Edgar Allan Poe tale.

I'm sure that I read somewhere that Tubby Ogston's favourite artists were R. L Burnside and Mississippi John Hurt... And the three people he'd most like to have to dinner was Jean Paul Sartre, Rene Magritte & Le Corbusier...

The guy i met in Prague could swear some too, especially used the c word a lot when referring to Celtic & Rangers/Sevco. Fair enough....

He’s our sunday league manager at Cullen, can confirm he loves to swear, especially at the hun/tims in our team

I had a feeling someone on here would know him. You can pass onto him that he inspired a thread on Abmad.

I was in Ibiza as a loon and wore a Parma top one day.
Across the breakfast hall, I spotted a bloke in a Dons top so headed over to have a chat.
He saw me and started to come see me.
He was a Parma fan.

Dons fan wearing Parma top meets Parma fan wearing an Aberdeen top.
It was pretty surreal.

Excellent. Whats the chances? There have been some very good wee stories here. Just the kind of stuff i was looking for when i started the thread. Just goes to show how far AFC's influence spreads

Just thought of another een.

When on holiday in maybe 94 with my folks in York(that would have me ten) there was a boy in a Dons away top kicking about in the caravan park so eventually me and my bro went to speak to him and had a kick about one night. Eventually my folks met his and his da was an old rugby team mate of my dad.

But weirdly from then on i played football pretty much all the way through our years playing, definatley at juvenille and Amateurs untill i chucked it at 28. Never forgot eachother and i had to mark him alot. But also when watching games my old boy got a blether with his if he was there

Nae going to say his name, same age as me and he might his even use this place is hes still an active Dons fan as ive seen him at games
