6 years ago, Greg and I went on a trip to Mazatlan, Mexico with some friends. We stayed at a really nice resort. One afternoon we were laying by the pool and a really good looking guy walked by. No, our agenda wasn't to scope out guys, but it was unusual to see someone who wasn't a Mexican native vacationing at this resort. So we were kind of starring at him for a few minutes. (His lawn chair was across from ours) About 20 minutes later, a waiter brought us some non-alcoholic smoothies. He said the guy in the black swim suit had sent them to us. We started freaking out, because the guy who had sent the drinks to us was the good looking guy we had noticed earlier. So, we decided to go tell him that he had just made three married women feel really good about themselves and thanks for the drinks. When we went to tell him thanks, this is how the conversation went... (Girls) Thanks for the drinks! (Guy) Your welcome, what are your names? (Girls) We tell him our names and then ask what is yours? (Guy) My name is Jeff. (Girls) Where are you from? (Guy) Washington. (Girls) Thanks have a nice trip! (Guy) Well my name really isn't Jeff. (Girls) What is it? (Guy) Matt (Girls) So are you Matt from Montana now? (Guy) No, Matt Damon. (Girls) Little squeals and giggles, Me being stupid reaches out and pulls down his sun glasses and screams "It is Matt" Then we ask to get our pictures taken with him and then people realize who he is and start coming up to him. Matt leaves the pool and we can't stop talking about this experience. The next day we wanted to be out by the pool first and hope that Matt Damon would come back to the pool. Minutes later after we pick our spot he sits 2 lawn chairs away from us. We didn't talk to him this time, we mostly just pretended to read our books and stare at him. Yes, we were really star struck. So we look back on this experience and wonder why he sent us the drinks. The conclusion we came to is, he probably sent us those drinks because he thought we recognized him and knew who he was and we were being cool by just letting him enjoy his vacation. But, we ruined that by going up to him after the drinks were sent. But, it was fun to get a picture with a famous movie star and this is a story I will never forget.
By the way, Matt was with a girl and our husbands knew about our little infatuation we all had with him for a couple days!

You lucky devil, you! That is an awesome story! How fabulous that you even got a picture with him! I am a huge Matt Damon fan and he looks just as good in real life as he does on the big screen (even if it is six years ago!) :) Fun post!
Now if that was Tom Selleck, Pierce Brosnan, Richard Dean Andersen (McGyver) I would be going crazy too. (Shows you my age) OLD! I am happy you had your Hollywood experience. You girls are cuter than Matt. Love you!
I'm so in love with Matt Damon! I would of just died! That is just the funniest story!
holy.cow.
That's the second time I've heard that story and I laugh everytime!! To Fun!!
Boy, if that was me who spotted Matt, I would be wrapping my body around him so tight it would take a crow-bar to get me off!! He is HOT!! A little young for me, but HOT!! I love that picture, and especially the HUGE grins of the 3 cute girls!!! He looks like he is enjoying himself too!
First, Mindy I can't believe you just said a crow-bar would be needed to pry you off Matt Damon. That made me laugh!!!!!
Em, I remember you telling me this story, but I had never seen the picture. So fun!!!
How lucky! I wish that I could have seen him! I am jealous! That is awesome that he bought you guys drinks! What a great story you have to tell! :)
I hope the person who left your last comment isn't a friend cause they sound like a huge JERK who is incredibly jealous (and probably wishes that they themself or their spouse looked like Matt Damon). That is way hilarious that you pulled his glasses down. My sister and I are so into Hollywood smut (smut is what we call it). It's great reading material for the gym.
Oops-that last comment was mine I just used the wrong email address!
Ih8bloggers, if you are going to leave 2 nasty comments on my blog, be man or woman enough to tell who you really are!!!!
Oh, seeing the picture makes the story even better! He IS cute. Wonder if he waxes his chest??? ;)
So someone left rude comments? Dang, I don't check blogs for a couple of days and I miss some good drama. Jeez. Sounds like someone must be jealous!
I had never heard this before, I LOVE IT. Thanks for sharing this story. I love Matt!! I am thinking he bought you three drinks because he saw three HOT blondes laying there. What guy wouldn't?
I love seeing the picture. This story is just awesome and makes me laugh.
