Tuli revettyä tälle ESPN:ltä poimitulle Shjon Podeinin tarinalle hänen tulokasvuodeltaan:
"So, I'm in my rookie year in Edmonton and it's my birthday. We had just come home from one of our infamous 15- to 20-day road trips and my family is there to celebrate. So, the family and I go out to have dinner and drinks. We're just relaxing when one of my brothers gives me a 4-foot high inflatable Tyrannosaurus rex for a birthday present. My other brother gives me a sombrero.
"We get back to the hotel and get Mom back in her room. As we're leaving Mom's room, my brothers jump me and rip my suit off in the hotel hallway, leaving me with just my boxers, a sombrero and my 4-foot high inflatable Tyrannosaurus rex.
"So I'm wandering the hallways of the hotel trying to find my room. We'd been on the road for 15 to 20 days, it's late, and I can't remember my room number. I stick my room key in a number of doors, hoping to find the right one. All of a sudden, I look up and there is one of Canada's finest security guards.
"I go, 'Hey, what's going on!'
"The security guard says, 'We've had a complaint that some guy is walking down the hall in his boxers, wearing a sombrero, with a bottle of Bud in one hand and an inflatable dinosaur in the other, making too much noise.'
"I looked at him and said, 'You've got the wrong guy, brutha.'"
