This clip will likely only interest me. I don't care, I'm posting it anyway. This is the moment that I first see Roger Federer step onto a tennis court. The first time I ever see him live. No matter what happens to me from this point forward, you cannot steal this moment away from me. Even if I come to experience significant cognitive decline, and I forget that it ever happened, I've got it on video. Even if I go back in time and live some other alternate reality that takes me far away from Roger Federer, there will still be one other reality in some parallel dimension in which this occurred. Even if God or Trump blew up the entire universe and there was no record of this ever happening, it would still not alter the fact that on Sunday, August 13, 2017, in Montreal, Canada, I did, in fact, see Roger Federer play tennis live. Every time I play this clip, tears fill my eyes. And I play this clip a lot. I'm tearing up a little bit just typing this. And we haven't even gotten to warm-ups yet.
