I'm the OP.
I think why I posted the response ... recently my friend told me a similar story that happened at the same station outside the city. My friend Rick drives a Honda Civic for his commute as a medical doctor in the city. While walking back to his car from the cashier, he spotted Orioles CF Adam Jones pumping up his accessorized Mercedes. He walked over to relay his admiration and Jones said "stay away from me" my friend is 165lbs and 5'10".
Really with Brooks Robinson 3rd base and Cal Ripkin CF , local ball fans really dig those infielders - there is nothing wrong with wanting your space and be left alone - thing is what makes humankind superior is our senseless banter that pervades our cultures.
On the other hand at Wholefoods waiting for it to open this a.m. when the owner of a 1990 S-class saw me looking at his car, he walked over and begun a very nice ten-minute conversation. He was a Pastor in the city, just nice meeting great people with pleasant demeanor.
