β€œSo now is my moment that I have always wanted to do. As I was walking back behind the counter I have to say that all the guys working at the Fish Market are just great, and were so cool and welcoming. One of the guys back there gave me a super quick rundown on the best way to catch this thing that would soon be flying at my face. He said to hold my hands us like I was eating a footling sandwich. OK, got it. Then he asked if I was ready to catch it. I replied by saying β€œI will try my best.” He responded jokingly, β€œNo. We don’t try. We Catch.” I quickly realized that I needed to bring my β€œA Game” to catch this fish. I can’t be the guy who drops the fish. So I’m ready with hands up pretending to eat the footling sandwich. Then a guy out in the crowd yells β€œAre you Ready? Fish Flying!!!” and before I can blink, the fish is hurling my way. But I’m proud to say that I did not disappoint the hundreds of people walking by and watching. I caught that fish on the first try and then held it up like a trophy. The crowd cheered, and my Bucket List item was complete.”
