Chris Thompson Quotations

She didn't know me. She didn't know my family, ... She just handed me the envelope. She said, 'This is for you and your family,' and she walked away.

I don't think it was a designed play. They saw me in the game. Why not take a shot?

He might be the best player in the state. Certainly people are going to be very, very pleasantly surprised with Mike and what he'll do at Boise.

People have called it alternative country before. I think it's got elements of pop in it, but we're definitely a country band. Americana/alt-country that seems to be a good home for us.

I was hitting the holes real hard, and when they hit, they weren't wrapping up too well. Without wrapping me up, I'm not going down anywhere.

That was a pretty cool moment for us. People were stopping in the aisles to turn around and listen to us.

Yeah, I was surprised. I was sitting on the bench.

We sold out a venue in College Station recently, and there was a line around the door.

I've always wanted to own a home here, but I just recently found myself in a financial situation where I can afford one. It's definitely nice to see that - while the world's fortunate are buying extravagant homes all around you - I am finally getting my own piece of the pie.

It's a pretty fun job that we have out here on the road.

I'll probably have a smile on my face the next little while. Hopefully there's a lot more where that came from.

I just stay out of trouble to stay out of trouble. I do it so I can graduate, so I can get out of here.

He's a pretty polished kid. A lot of the stuff Chris does at Boise, we do in some form or fashion. We'll do 100 of those things, and they'll do 10,000, but he's been exposed to the concepts.

The crowd was just phenomenal. It's one of those moments where you definitely do pinch yourself.

All the guys in here know I hadn't scored a goal. Every game, every power play, when I got out there, they tried to get me the puck. It finally came today.

The long-term payoff I think could be just as great because of them. A lot of credit goes to the city for plowing the streets so fast and having so many police out there to keep things safe.
