You know how things happen when you least expect them? Well, tonight was one of those times. I scored a photo with one of the founding fathers of rock-n-roll, Chuck Berry!

Normally, Berry is camera shy and usually refuses to pose for the camera. Tonight was an exception. He seemed in a great mood while attending an event at St. Louis City Hall honoring Devon Alexander, current WBC and IBF light welterweight boxing champion, and St. Louis native. As he worked his way through the crowd, he stopped to pose for those who asked. As I asked him for the photo, I thanked him for all his great music. He extended his arm for a handshake and the photo.
