Orange County Chopper sighting!

Ok.. so Jason have been watching this show OCC for sometime now. If you aren't familiar with it, it's a family, father and 2 sons, that make custom choppers (motorcycles that are fancy) here in New York. We were excited when we found out we would live only 30 miles from their shop! We have gone to their shop in Montgomery, Palasides Mall and have watched the show pretty much every day.. here's the cool point to this post!
We had to go to Newburgh to get "dress" clothes for a cadet function Monday night. While at Taco Bell Jason and I saw one of the guys from the show. It was too cool. I saw him waiting for his order and thought, "that really looks like the guy from OCC." He had an OCC shirt on, work pants and obviously worked with grease of some sort! Jason walked up to the table and said, "I think that guy is on OCC!" We checked out his tattoos and when we got home, watched OCC on TV and low and behold it was Christian! I know for many of you, this isn't exiciting, but to watch someone on TV for a while and then to see them in person, at Taco Bell of all places, it was pretty cool! No, we didn't act like fools and go up and ask for autographs or talk to him, it was just cool enough to say "we ate lunch with Christian from OCC."
On another cool note: Jason saw the father and son (Paul Sr and Paulie (jr)) at the gas station in Highland Falls filling up. I guess around here they are just "neighbors" but for us "outsiders" it's still a famous person sighting!
They even came to West Point for some tribute to fallen soldiers, but the base here didn't make a big deal about it AFTER they came.. less crowd control!
So.. for those that are OCC fans.. they do exist! :-)
