Bernie Sighting in Chico!

Dear Sillies,

I hope that life is going easy on you.

I had such an exciting weekend. I try not to be too intrusive when I see someone famous, yet I couldn't help but snap pictures...
In case you can't tell, it's (obviously) Bernie Sanders! Right? It has to be. That hair, those nice tight fitting jeans, and he's chatting with a Deadhead millennial at Burgers 'n Brew in downtown Chico! How cool is that? I was too busy snapping photos to get a hug or autograph, but I'm still so excited, I wanted to share this with you.

I may be a bit obsessed. I promise, though, if I see any other politicians around town, I'll photograph them too - even though nobody compares to Bernie Sanders.

Keep a smile, and have a great week, my friends.

  1. I sadly fear that if I were to see our candidates hissing and spitting would be my reaction...

  2. Yes, Robyn, that is definitely Sanders. Find out what brew he was drinking so we can make the other candidates drink it too.

    1. Thank you, Geo. I'm glad you, like me, have no doubts.

  3. WOW Bernie actually looks younger there than on TV.

  4. I dunno, that's a lot of hair for it to be ol' B-Sands. Then again, he is talking to a proto-hippie, so maybe it is. Who knows, I have difficulty recognizing famous people in public. Except Fabio, he I recognized instantly.

  5. I, too think maybe the hair is a bit poofy for Bernie but then the hippy tablemate seems to endorse that it could be him.

  6. I saw Bernie last fall, here in Savannah, as I didn't want my daughter to go downtown at dark, so I accompanied her and a friend to a rally. It was exciting but most exciting was my daughter and her friend and me remembering being that idealistic when I was younger.

    1. It's awesome to see the energy of youngsters who feel the Bern. I love it, Sage. Thanks for sharing that.

  7. Could be him, although I thought he had less hair...

  8. He's planning his comeback since Clinton declared last week she will be the nominee.

    1. Yeah, Clinton's ego is getting a bit too big for the White House. Bernie's, however, is perfect.

  9. Wow, how could you not fall in love, just look at those big old socks pulled up to his knees.

  10. He definitely needs to tame those woolly locks.

  11. Oh Bernie! I've seen a few politicians in DC but I've never taken a photo. Too afraid to point anything at them. :)

    1. Thankfully, Libby, I'm only 4'8" and timid looking (little do they know).

      Thanks for dropping by. =)

  12. The hair and the deadhead millennial seal it :)

  13. Too bad you didn't get a hug or an autograph! Oh well, maybe next time. ;)

  14. Robyn, I thought you had the hots for Bernie!? Did you miss your big chance?????

    1. Truth is, Deb, I talk a big show and all. But in real life, I'm really shy. The best I could do was take 12 pictures mid-day, in the middle of a busy street, while people swarmed by during Grad weekend. I'm shy like that.

  15. Not sure if he was rumpled enough. Glad you had a treat in Chico. Hope the week continues swimmingly

  16. You should have asked him for some free college. I hear he's looking to hand that out. And free's free, right?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yeah, I should've. I know a lot of people who could use free collage. I mean college.

  17. His hair looks a bit too curly, so maybe it's Bernie's brother Ernie. He ought to have a brother called Ernie, right? The man he's talking to looks like Trump's future assassin.

    ReplyDelete

    1. He should have a brother named Ernie, and take baths with Burt, and dine with Big Bird. Let's hope you're right about the man he's talking to, GB.

  18. Congrats on getting a picture of him even though I would never think of looking at his butt. Now what if it was Trump stump?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. But his butt looks cute, Birgit. I'll have to keep a lookout for Trump stump...ewww. He might break my camera.

      Delete
  19. That's not Bernie. That's Trump pretending to be Bernie. Sorry.

    Love,
    Janie

    1. I was certain it was, JoJo, until I read Janie's comment. Well, and the others, except Geo's. Can't a gal dream?

  21. It doesn't look like the Crypt Keeper, so it's not Hilary.

    ReplyDelete
  22. You sound like me with celebrities. Harry Belafonte once waved at me, and I almost cried...

    ReplyDelete
  23. If that's Bernie it's awesome that you now have a picture of him that's your very own.

    ReplyDelete
  24. You sure that wasn't Larry David?

    ReplyDelete
  25. Where are his suspenders? Do you think he uses garters to hold up his socks. If I got his garters what would you give me for them?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Hi human, Robyn,

    He's the dude that's running for Pawsident. Right? Or make that, left!

    Pawsitive wishes, your way,

    Penny!

  27. How exciting for you! My cousin shook his hand when he came to town and it's all we heard about for days lol. I would have snapped photos from a distance as well. I am such a sissy when it comes to approaching people.

    ReplyDelete
  28. You just know this image of "Bernie" and the Deadhead will be going viral. He'll be denying he was in Chico til the cows come home (do the cows ever leave Chico?)

    1. The cows don't leave, Mitchell. I think they like the grass. It's greener here than, say, the Sahara Desert.

  29. That guy's hair looks a bit tame for the Bernie. Seems like Bernie is more wild man than that, but what do I know? It could be him. Besides, when you're not sure, indulge the fantasy, right?

  30. I saw Angry Gran at Walmart. Well, a lady who looked just like her. My son and I couldn't help but stare. I took a picture. ;)

    1. Oh my, I wanna see the picture, Rosey! I'm gonna look out for her too!

  31. Hehe. That has to be him. Love your hashtag. :D

    ReplyDelete
  32. You totally should have gotten an autograph!! Maybe next time.

    ReplyDelete
  33. It's totally him!!

    You know what's funny? I think he'd actually sit down and talk to people. He seems like that kind of guy...maybe.

  34. Fun! I always get a little giddy when I see someone that is a type of celebrity.
