We don't get many celebrity sitings in our neck of the woods, so I was very excited when I ran into a big star yesterday at our neighborhood Publix grocery store. As I was walking out of the store, back to my car, an athletic-looking gentleman was walking towards me into the store, holding hands with a little boy. I thought it might be, but when I saw him turn and lock his immaculate black Range Rover with Pennsylvania license plates, I confirmed that it was Hines Ward, Super Bowl MVP for the Pittsburgh Steelers! I know that his ex-wife lives here in Atlanta (a former colleague of Bill's) and his son resides in Atlanta most of the time with her. Hines is also a UGA graduate, so I'd seen him around campus quite a bit years ago, but it was exciting to see him in person now that he's a big NFL star!
