EDIT: AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

today I didn't even have to use my AK...I gotta say it was a good day

Details... more details please!  I am so envious!

and say "Who ordered the catch of the day?"

Red Robin?

Eat his food???

HA!!!! when I was at my orientation before freshman year he was sitting across frome at Cottage In... he was on the Bears at the time and was trying to make it with some girl... I interrupted him and deserved to get popped but in a blink he paused his game, and shook hands. Was impressed.

Just let him eat.  He's not making a public appearance, he's having dinner.

If he leaves before you, just say " Good luck Coach. Hope you have a great off season." If he is seated when you leave, " Enjoy your dinner, Coach. Good luck next year or a simple, Go Blue"

don't mention hugs or how much they cost

....let us know how that goes.

The rest will take care of itself!

Just do what I do when I see somebody at a bar or restaurant that I went to meet. Have the server tell them that Dave Grohl is here. Works everytime. Here's me and Nicklas Lidstrom from a few months back. 

Just saw Derrick Walton at a bar in Chicago. He walked past our table on the way in and my brain instinctively reacted: "D Walt! What's up?" He kind of nodded and said "Hey how's it going?" I'm not one to approach celebs, minor or major, and felt a bit foolish for the fan boy reaction (and because "D Walt" isnt even a thing). In retrospect I should have just gone with a more subtle "Go Blue!" Especially given today's result and the fact he was wearing M gear. I'll go ahead and give myself a "Cool story, bro" on this one.

Tell him how much we love and appreciate him.

do the right thing and that would be, let him eat, while you do the same. 

Play it cool, man!

1) Don’t be an ass. Just leave him alone and let he and Sarah enjoy a night out. They’re not making a public appearance so give them some semblance of privacy, and try not to act like a horny middle school girl while you’re at it.

2) If for whatever reason you can’t control yourself and have to say something, just walk over and wish them a good night. Don’t ask for an autograph or tell him to start beating OSU. Just wish them a good night, good luck for next season, and be on your way.

Your wife’s got you covered!

Update?

I was once at a cafe with my wife and 1 year old in Canada where there were four out door tables on a terrace. A celebrity came out alone and sat at a table next to us. We ignored him. Didn’t want to bother him and didn’t care. He started a conversation with us and eventually joined our table for a while until we were done. We never let on that we knew who he was.

Ask him if you can be an honorary captain next year

Sincerely hope you played it cool. No one likes the guy who talks to the guy just because they are something special. Better to just be normal. Believe me. Signed, TB12 on the sideline against this trash team

I wonder how many random assholes holler at him, or interrupt his family meal for fan girl pictures on a daily basis. Guess that just goes with the territory I guess.

Congratulate him on his sons first birthday

Ask him if he can get you Beilein's autograph.

...what he is doing in Ann Arbor having dinner with his wife when he should be out recruiting.

And tell him to do a better job of coaching the football games next year.

I hope you did nothing.  But really, I want the pics to prove this happened...

Please leave him with more uninterupted time to improve the 2018 FB season.

We were at Cottage Inn and he and another guy came in for lunch, I think it was. Suddenly, I couldn't keep focused on what my wife was saying; I wanted to go over and sit down, lol. I made up my mind to say something when we got up to leave, congrats or something short and sweet, but as we got up to leave the gal came with their order and ruined the moment for me. I always regretted not getting to say anything; times like that - opportunities like that - don't often happen.
