I had heard he was around, but as I was walking back to my car I ended up turning a corner and coming straight face to face with him. Of course I pointed and said..."MFM! The Sacred Guardian of Chad's Gap!" His response to this was a blank stare. Either he didn't get it or was wondering why this old guy was essentially giving him the NS callout.
I was hoping he would have a whip with his sponsor logos on it (for the NS sticker tag contest), but it was unfortunately a undecorated rental SUV.
