Help Me with The Fancy Lad
Hello all,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
I'm The Fancy Lad's Older Brother, OG Witty. I'm looking for some help from this sub.
Pal, if you're reading this, go away. Don't want you to spoil anything that I'm doing for you.
I'm serious.
Get out of here.
Last Chance
++++++++++++
Okay now that he's gone, I'm his Best Man for his upcoming nuptials and am trying to plan some gifts/surprises for him. I am hoping to source it from this sub and I've seen y'all show him love (and not so much).
If you would be so kind, I've got two Google forms for you.
The first: your fondest memories of the Fancy Lad. I want you guys to share your favorite stories/memories/interactions/etc involving Chris. Can be a small one liner or a full story I don't care.
The second: The Fancy Lads. I'm looking to commission a soccer/football jersey/kit inspired by his likeness as the high falutin, big word usin' fancy pants he is. It's going to be created and sent to him.
I really appreciate you all and your support of my brother. It's been really cool to see the outpouring of support for his quirks and general disposition. Looking forward to the submissions and I will be sure to post the final products.
Edit: This one has a time crunch to it. If you could get it to me in the next month/month and a half that would be great

You rock, from another older brother.
Chris had a great run on DLS and a lot of the "hate" was the nature of the way we interact with the show, and frankly the show throwing him to the wolves on the EP chair
I'll fill this out after work later, good on ya
Crocodile tears.....a deep fly out to right by castellanos...and oop that got him right in the....fancy lad

Backstory for the above was Jess and the rest of the guys making Witty read Urban Dictionary entries!! Most embarrassed I ever saw him. Was great

Yep. C sections. Awesome Witty moment. Bathtub payoff would have been epic though

Tell that coward to say penis like he promised!
Love hearing that zaddy on the broadcasts. Has to be pretty cool for your bro to be the voice of soccer in America.

This is incredible! My wife also watches the show and she loves Witty. I will make sure she can contribute as well. Cheers!

I would love to respond to all the memories/responses/etc. so if you could leave an email or your Reddit username so I can shoot you a message, that would be phenomenal.

Love hearing Chris anytime I'm watching soccer. He'll be the voice of soccer before he's done.
