I need to some Foster Cartwheels ASAP!

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

Saturdays are for the boys, come on Bud.

I'm guessing the dudes like Tapp and Derek Smith that have families with kids at a cool age would go that route and the dudes that don't have kids would go the other way here.

I know Bud Foster is "settled down" and "retired" but the thought of a boy's weekend and football game with Bud Foster sounds like the best weekend ever in the NRV.

In fact, Hokie Club should definitely think about auctioning that off as a fundraiser. Box seats with Bud!

Got a chance to spend the last Pitt game with him and his family. Let me tell you: it is everything you could imagine it would be, and then 50% cooler than that.

This is a great opportunity for a TKPC post behind the paywall

Yes! Please spill the beans. I've shared it in the past, but I got invited to Bud's 50th birthday party at Claytor lake and he taught me how to drink moonshine the correct way! Talk about a great party!

I posted about it right after it happened. I couldn't help myself, its already on TKP. Let me find the link.

A good friend of mine is friends with Mrs. Foster, so I got the chance to tag along.

He is a very relatable person for how famous he is and how much he hears the same things from fans "I'm a big fan" "I was at game X when VT did Y". He listened to every person, shook their hands and thanked THEM for being so supportive, took every conceivable picture and must have done it like a few dozens times in the hour or so that we sat eating. Asked questions of people about to get them talking about things other than VT football. I think that is what made him so good for VT; he is not above just being himself.

If this alumni weekend comes together I plan to try to ride some coat-tails behind the velvet rope. Stay tuned.

I felt like a 13 year old girl meeting Justin Bieber when I got to meet him and have breakfast with him. He just was so nice about it despite me being just another idiot fan.

Wet stuff on the red stuff.

I'm not sure i can accept an analogy where Bud Foster = Justin Bieber. Nope it ain't right!

Get out.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.
