Johnny Damon


Johnny Damon of the New York Yankees (formerly of the Boston Red Sox) came in to the Embassy this morning for a meet and greet. The picture's from the net as I didn't bring my camera, but he stayed behind to take pictures with the rest of the Embassy and sign autographs, etc. He's in town as he's half-Thai and our Public Affairs section is sponsoring his trip out here as a symbol of Thai-American friendship, I suppose. Without the beard it's a bit easier to tell he's got some Asian blood in him. His mother is Thai and father was an American stationed in Thailand during the VN war. He said it's his first time back in Thailand since he was two, should be an interesting trip back.
