Maya's Story

I have to tell you - when I first visited jasonwiles.net and read the stories of people who met Jason I thought to myself - "god, this people are SO lucky, I would never get the chance to meet Jason". And now, as I'm writing my own encounter story, I feel so lucky for being able to count myself as one of the people who met Jason!

Here's my encounter, I hope you'll enjoy it!

------------------------------------------------------------

First Night

I came to the theatre. Kaipo was behind the counter. I approached him and introduced myself. When he gave me my tickets I felt like fainting - row AA - practically ON the stage.

The show was absolutely great, Jason's part was amazing!

Then after the show we went outside. Anthony was the first to come out. I took a picture with him and he gave me his autograph. Second to come was Coby. I took a picture with him as well, then spotted Jason.

Jason was the nicest! When I took our picture he hugged me SO tight and it was the best feeling :-D I even got the chance to talk with him for a while (and I really didn't think I would!).

After I told him I came all the way from Israel to see the play he got so excited, and hugged me and told me he really appreciated it. I got another picture with him (this one he asked me to take!!!) and then I had to share him with the other fans too, so I stepped back.

Just when I was about to leave our eyes met, and he waved at me and smiled, and I waved back. He is so nice. He made my life happier! I swear!!

Second Night

(On our way to the theatre we met Coby! I was too shy to say something but then we stopped at a traffic light together, and I had to say something. I told him good luck with the show tonight and he smiled at me and said thanks, and that he hopes I will enjoy it :))

The show was even better the second time I saw it. I got to sit next to Mona and the webdude (btw - it was great meeting you guys! And Terry as well!)

After the show I went outside again. It was MUCH more crowded this time and since I already had gotten my chance to meet Jason I hung back.

For my huge surprise, while I was standing and waiting for my turn, Jason saw me and recognized me from the night before! He smiled at me and said "thank you for coming again". I felt like he really appreciated the fact I came to the show twice and came such a long way.

I waited until most of the crowd went away and stepped closer to Jason. He was the first to talk as he saw me, asked me what did I think of the play the second time. I said it was great, even better than the last time. He said he thought so too. He asked me how long was I going to stay in town, but then a bunch of girls came toward him asking for his autograph and he told me "I'll be right back with you". OMG. Jason actually told me he'd be right with me. I mean - who cares that those girls interrupted our conversation? Jason told me he'd be right with me!! LOL. I took couple of steps away, so I could relax and give him some space as well.

I was so excited about what just happened. I sat there for a minute and then Jason came towards me with the cutest smile on his face. He hugged me and chatted with my dad and I for a couple of minutes he shook our hands and then his wife called him, so he told me he had to go and hugged me again (!).

Those two days were the happiest days of my life. I will never forget this experience. Jason is SO nice, WAYYY over what I had expected!
