So it's like 10:30AM and Im getting ready for the day....another day that I am blessed to be having... The Man asks me to meet him at his hotel at 1:30PM...seems he will be free an hour earlier then we had planned....so we're off to his hotel....we arrived there a lil early so we decide to check out the place....very swanky...Aaron arrives and gives us a tour of the place....including his room....he grabs his clothes and we're off to the front again to pick up his his white Mercedes C300, we say goodbyes to the girls, and we're off....jetting thru Beverly Hills, the UCLA campus, Brentwood, and down to the Riviera country club...a cool 30-40 minute ride....we passed by the Viper room where River Pheonix died on the street corner....and the Beverly Hills Hotel....very cool....we arrive at the Riviera.....a course that is famous golf standards...Hogan's Alley as it is dubbed....we played like hacks for the first few holes...needed to medicate to get this game on track....again, it isn't about the scores, it's about the moments....we finish up our round and take a few pictures, and he signs his ball, glove and scorecard to give to me..... Aaron has a limo waiting to take me to Dodger Stadium, so we say our goodbyes and exchange hugs, and he's off in his Mercedes....leaving me to take the limo to the game and catch up with the rest of my party.....i arrived at the game shortly after it started, Cindy, Tiffany, Rosie, Gerry and their kids...we all got to see the Dodgers beat the Mets for the second straight night in a row....what a nice finish to a beautiful day.....i got to hear some more great stories from Aaron on the golf course...the Kenny G. being the funniest...this trip to California was off the hook.....it was made very special thanks to Aaron, Rosie and Gerry (you guys are the best), Tiffany (so glad we finally got to meet you and do a Dodger game) and my wife Cindy, who continues to stand beside me thru it all....and I cant forget all my peeps from Vegas....you know who you are.....you made this entire vacation the best ever.....2 awesome shows with awesome peeps, 2 rounds of golf on 2 beautiful courses with the man I admire most....getting to finally meet our great friend Tiffany, and doing a show and a Dodger game together.....staying with my new west coast family, Rosie and Gerry....I shall never forget this trip....nor will I forget the generousity of all the people who made this possible for us....Thank you all for your hand in making this happen for me....I've had the time of my life....I have felt like a king for 8 days....and I am as humbled as I can be because of it.....Thank you all......
and of course, now for sum more pics......

That is awesome, Tony! Hanging out with Aaron like that is so cool. Way better than a meet and greet, for sure. I am very happy for you.
