Scary Pistol Pete

Ever since Will was 1 1/2 he has LOVED Pistol Pete! At football, basketball, and volleyball games, he scans the crowd for Pistol Pete. The Cowboys had a basketball game on Friday that we decided to attend. As usual, Will was asking if he would see Pistol Pete. I replied that maybe he could even shake his hand. During the first quarter, Will was in luck. Pistol Pete came down to our section. I waved my arms to get him to come over to us and took out the camera to get a picture. Clark took Will out of the row to talk to Pistol Pete. Anyone want to guess Will's reaction?

He was BAWLING!!! After we got him to calm down, I asked why he was sad and he said, "Pistol Pete have big teeth!"

Maria, this post made me want to laugh and cry! It's so sad to see Will in tears, but so funny that it would end up that way! He has always been such a big fan of Pistol Pete. I guess it's only from a distance that Pistol Pete is worth loving. :)

That is so sad, but so funny that pistol Pete is such a bad guy up close. Hope all is going well. I'm sorry I laughed at this picture but it looks like Clark is doing the same thing. Pretty cute.
