We just got back from our summer vacation, we took a 6 night trip to the Caribbean islands out of port Canaveral. The first day we got on an elevator my youngest son spotted someone he thought was a Jaguars player. I told him no way he was seeing things, sure enough he was right. It happened to be his favorite player Christian Kirk and he was nice enough to talk with my son and take a picture with him. Absolutely made his vacation! 

Really awesome when the players are as down to earth as they seem in real life. I made sure he didn’t bother Christian the rest of the trip but he say him two or three times and Christian would smile and wave. 

Of course my son is now convinced he lives the life of an NFL player since we were on the same cruise.

Wow, that's awesome for you guys and especially your son.  Kinda shocked that's the vacation Kirk chose, but I guess he's not THAT famous.
Nice!

Yea I was surprised too but it he probably had one of the suites with all the perks. We only saw him the once on the elevator and then twice on days we where at port going to different excursions

He probably just wanted a low key vacation on a boat no one would expect to see him on.
