It started out as just another rather uneventful bus ride back from Pacific Coliseum into downtown Vancouver.
Just a bunch of weary skaters, coaches, officials — and, oh yes, one Skate Canada blogger — anxious to get back to their hotels after another long day at the rink.
Then, as we rolled down hotel alley (a.k.a. Burrard St.), we noticed a big commotion caused by a rather large crowd that had blocked off a lane of traffic in front of the Hyatt Regency.
"Isn't Jennifer Aniston shooting a video near here?" someone asked.
Naturally, gratuitous rubber necking instantly ensued. This was, after all, Rachel Green of Friends fame we were talking about.
(and yes, she is in Vancouver for a movie shoot. So, too, apparently, is Keanu Reeves, who I'm told was at the Pacific National Exhibition grounds — where the competition and practice rinks are located — at some point in the last few days. But I digress ...).
"Is that her in the toque?" another curious voice wondered.
I must confess I thought I might have seen the back of her head.
But alas, not one of us could say they knew for sure.
Well, except this voice I heard.
"I'm telling everyone I saw her," she said, to a chorus of laughter.
Hey, that's our story and we're sticking to it.
