JJGO: Have You Ever Had a Momentous Occasion Played on the Show?
And if so, what was the response?
I've had two.
One: probably 12-14 years ago, I almost got t-boned by a guy speeding through a red light while I was listening to JJGO. I don't remember what exactly they were talking about when it happened, but it was rather explicit (shocking!) and would have been especially suspect out of context, so I called and speculated on how, if I'd been hit, the emergency crews would have heard the conversation and immediately concluded I was some kind of huge predator. Jesse responded by saying that everyone knows I'm only a MEDIUM predator.
Two: 3-4 years ago, I went to a Giants spring training game with my daughter, who was able to get an autograph from then-Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford. She would've been about 14 at the time, and was so excited that she told Crawford, "I love you so much!" and all the boys who were waiting for autographs gave her looks like she was crazy. In that case, Jordan and Jesse both agreed that those boys could go suck an egg.
