Getting Deli Meats with Tyler Olander

[DogMania]

This weekend I ran into TO at BigY. Got to talk with him for a couple minutes while ordering cold cuts at the deli. Real nice guy. He's back for the summer after playing over in Lithuania. I wish I had asked him how his experience was living and playing over there.

It's been few years since I've been up close to one of the UConn Bigs. It is amazing how large some human beings can get. Though nothing compares to the time I shook Thabeet's hand. I remember someone else commenting about about doing the same and saying how Hash's fingers reached his elbow while shaking his hand. I still laugh at that one.

Misleading title.

There's very little about deli meat in that post. Please change the title.

I agree. No baloney.

Just glad the story wasn't one like The Ram in The Wrestler.

Bologna?

I thought this was about TO being spotted working at deli and he took your order.

Did you pull ticket number 44?!?!?!?

 

[Kitaman]

I thought you guys went on a deli meat road trip.

I think he just forgot a coma, and misspelled "meat."

Olander has twice as many national championships at the great Jim Boeheim.

Would have been amazing if it was the location where Chuck works. Sharing the deli area with 2 guys with as much (or more) championship hardware as Jim Boeheim would be a magical thing even at a BigY

Were you ordering deli meats and he was cutting them? Were you also getting deli meats when you shook Hasheem's hand?

Best deli meats in CT?

If this had happened, Tyler would have taken your order and cut 3 slices, but then would have been pulled in favor of a more gifted deli worker.

If the AAC ever creates a TV channel, "Getting deli meats with Tyler Olander" will be a staple of its Sunday night programming.

I think that is already a show on Food Network, it comes on after Chopped.

Was Ickey Woods there?

I met Thabeet randomly while walking around Soho in NYC. Im on the right with the thumbs up. Dude definitely had the biggest hands ive ever shook.

You joke, but moved to VA and i miss the deli's of Stamford Ct. Good deli's, bagel shops and pizza are impossible to encounter down here.

This cannot be posted enough.

LOL! I wasn't sure where this thread would go, but I knew it would be funny.

Wait. If chief wasn't there with Andre and uconn bishes then it didn't happen.

 

[CL82]

I don't think this really happened. I read on the Twitter that Tyler was buying dishwasher detergent on the west coast yesterday.

Instagram had Tyler rapping in a Clearasil commercial this weekend.
