I was about 13 at the time and on a family vacation. My parents were in a store shopping and I was bored so I went to stand outside. I'm standing out there and this very old, very fat, very short man (he looked a lot like Danny devito) walks up to me and says "Aren't you just the cutest." He then pinches my cheek and walks away. I'll never forget him.

Old man gave me a friendly wink at the mall once in the '90s, and I felt like I was just the coolest member of the club.
