elmaParticipantJust had two young men at my door telling me that as an assignment for their communication class they were supposed to meet their neighbors. Claimed they lived on 41st. (I live off Frontenac near California). Asked me if I was a Cougar fan. I didn’t give them a chance to see if they were selling anything. I just said- “You’ve met me. Have a nice day.”
Any one else have any callers like this?

miwsParticipantNot at home, (an apartment building, not too far from you), but at the Summer Festival this afternoon, (in fact it was about 3:45, because I was on my way back home), I had a younger, adult gentleman ask me if I was a Mariners fan.
I couldn’t figure out why he was asking, I wasn’t wearing any M’s gear. I seem to recall he had something that perhaps he was handing out, but didn’t pay that much attention. Just answered him(honestly) that no, I was not.
I didn’t take the time to expand on my amswer that I’m just not much of a sports fan at all, although I like it when our teams are doing great. ;-)

jwwsParticipantElma,
Just had one guy by the name of “Venom” claim same thing only he was from UW (supposedly) trying to raise money for study abroad for communications class -supposedly sent out by the Dean at UW – handed a fake looking laminated card – didn’t have my readers on but did have dogs sticking heads out windows. This was on 55th between Dakota and Andover – needless to say dogs and I “politely” sent him on his way. The alarm system will be on tonight as well as the pooches – oh yeah and windows will be closed!

genehsuParticipantIt must be prime scam time now. There were 2 young men claiming they were on the UW Rugby club team raising money for a trip. I did give them a check, but sent email to the UW Rugby club team to verify. Unfortunately, the story couldn’t be verified, so I’ve stopped that check already.
