In April 2012, I had the opportunity to meet Avril Lavigne at a Safeway. She was there for the opening day for Special Olympics. My girlfriend at the time invited me to go to the opening day for Special Olympics. When we got there, we took our seats. There was a table set up on one side of the room, and Avril Lavigne was sitting at the table. I could hear “Complicated” and “Girlfriend” playing on the speaker system. The event started with the torch lighting. Someone ran with the torch and put it on a stand. Avril Lavigne spoke and explained she was there to support Special Olympics. We walked to where the cash registers were, and she started bagging groceries. When that was over, we went back to where we were sitting before. Avril Lavigne brought the table closer, and my girlfriend and I got into a line to meet her. She autographed a picture of her for us. I have the picture hanging in my room.
