As a woman born and raised in the US, Keanu Reeves is a huge walking green flag! I love his art and his style, but his humanity is something a lot of people lack. He is one of the best men out there. Thanks for being safe and compassionate K!

I was a touring musician and spent some time in LA. I will always remember walking out of our hotel heading to our tour van down the block and actually passed Keanu on the sidewalk. It was unreal. Sure, we saw quite a few movie stars - but I was so unprepared for this. So I just threw him a “peace sign” and said, “Be excellent”. (So terrible, yes?). Didn’t expect anything in return, but he threw a peace sing back and said, “Thanks, man”. Yeah - not much of a story - but it’s my only one. Love this guy.

Travis realizing it's not just tight end stats but receiving stats was awesome. Sometimes he underestimates how legendary his numbers are
