While at a pub(name withheld to protect Morrissey from stalkers) in Hollywood to watch a soccer game, I had the second greatest night of my life (after my wedding). Morrissey was there along with a young (mid-20's), attractive Latino guy. At first I was in total disbelief. Various friends of mine have seen Morrissey at the most random places, finally it was my turn. Morrissey was dressed very smartly. He had on slacks and a grey blazer, as his friend did. He looked younger than I expected and seemed to be in good spirits all night.
I rushed to my car and luckily I had a Moz CD (Bona Drag) in the car, which is a rarity being that I primarily rely on my iPod. To make a long story short I approached him and we proceeded to have a nice five minute conversation and he signed my CD (scan). He was more witty and charming than I could have imagined. I had always thought that if I ever met him I would be very calm and relaxed when I talked to him. I found myself very nervous and anxious about the whole situation. When I first met him I introduced myself and told him that I was a "great fan of his" to which he responded with nod of his head and a wry smile "great!, oh really, how so?" I told him of the impact he has had on my life to which he seemed genuinly interested. He has that kind of magnetism and charisma where you when you talk to him you feel he is intently listening to you and giving you his full attention.
Overall, he was exceptionaly nice and friendly and offered his hand upon parting. He stayed at the bar over two hours and looked very relaxed and appeared to be having a great time.
Having been longtime fan, since Meat is Murder, it was a dream come true.

Don't Understand... (Score:4, Insightful)
So why is it when a fellow fan meets Moz almost everyone has to rip him/her to shreds?
Why can't people say, "Wow, that's great!" or something similar?
I understand being jealous...but I don't understand being hateful!

Secondly, the soccer game was U.S vs Cuba in the Gold Cup (for the CONCACAF champion). A game that the U.S. won 4-1.
I hope that answers any and all questions.

I'm glad that you met him and that you shared your story on here.
I'm always encouraged to hear that he was nice to fans and signed autographs for them, etc. I'd love to meet him one day, but I'm in TN and was sick the last time he was here. I'm afraid that I'll never meet him!
I'm also sorry that people are asking you questions about Morrissey's orientation/romantic life. As if it is anyone's business.

I don't know; but even if if was just a lie, well done: the portrait is perfect.
I'd just love to believe there's a different picture of him somewhere.
Right now, I can't.

Oh and to the other anonymous loser, as a Northerner who's lived in London for over 4 years I count myself as a Londoner so shut about about that you don't understand.
You people really don't help.

shit happens, deal...in this case there's politics involved.
keep your emotions checked or your leader will drag you down the wrong path even further. Look what happened to the US after 9-11.
and i am not being insensitive, I am sorry and sad for what happened...just like i am sad a child dies in africa every 3 seconds. and yet it far from consumes me. oh bla di blah da.
