The Beast!

Had the craving for picanha so I had lunch at Fogo de Chao today. Halfway through my meal I saw these two black guys walking to their table, one of them looking terribly familiar. Lo and behold, it was Julio Baptista!

Well, I wasnt sure at first since he didnt get the reception that I though that a famous footballer would get. There were no stares and no whispers, everyone just pretty much ignored him. Except me of course. After fixing my gaze on him for several minutes, though, I was pretty sure that it was him.

Too bad I didnt have my camera with me, else I would have mustered up my courage to walk up to 'The Beast' and have my picture taken with him.

I have to say he was smaller than I thought. And he wasnt as ugly as he looked onTV...
