Yesterday evening, we had a small gathering at the Black Friar to wish a co-worker well in her future endeavors. And who should show up but hometown hunk (yes, I just typed that) Chace Crawford. Zac spotted him first. So one in our group was deputized to confirm his identity. She walks over to him with his IMDB profile displayed on a iPhone and says, “Hi, is this you?” Smooth, right? Crawford was sitting in a booth with two of his buddies. And the funny thing is, he denies being Chace Crawford. But we will not be denied. So a few minutes later, when another of our group arrives, she approaches him again and essentially says, “Stop lying to us and come outside so we can take your picture.” From all reports, Crawford was very nice. He said he was in town for his parents’ 25th wedding anniversary. So cheers to Mr. and Mrs. Crawford. And cheers to the D ladies for can-do spirit.
