My Brother Met Robert Ballard

Post by Kyler »

My brother called me this past Sunday to let me know, he got the chance to meet and briefly talk to Robert Ballard on Saturday.

My brother recognized him when he came into a restaurant he was managing at that night. (My brother is Yellowstone NP's Parkwide Bar Manager)
Thanks mostly to the fact I was obessed with the guy growing up after he found the Bismarck.
None of his co-workers even knew who he was until he explained that he found the Titanic & Bismarck.

He said Ballard was very nice a polite during their brief conversation. Was going to give me a more
details when he gets to talk to me later.

A very good oportunity indeed! There are ocassions when you can learn more in an informal conversation than in a seminar or conference.
