You know you're a Bruce fan if…

145. your kids argue over who gets to imitate Miami Steve on the next cut.
146. when you hear barking in the neighborhood, you exclaim "The dogs on Main Street howl 'cause they understand..."
147. you take a picture of the sign on the highway that says "Freehold - Next Exit".
148. you know that it is NOT a wood-grain Telecaster, but a wood-grain 1953 Esquire
149. you know where lot 23C is, but you can't find your car when you leave the local mall
150. you ever lost a nail from hitting re-dial on your phone for Ticketmaster
151. you get so tired waiting for the tour to get to Seattle you fly to NJ.
152. you win for front-row tickets in a KAC fund auction.
153. you consider quitting your job to follow Bruce on tour.
154. Terry Magovern has seen you so many times he has you on his "possible stalkers" list
155. your wardrobe starts to match what Bruce is wearing on the current tour.
156. you've been to Abbey Road - and I don't mean the one in England!
157. you consider naming your firstborn son Kyle William.
158. someone calls out for your friend: "Billy!?", and you respond: "He's down by the railroad tracks..."
159. you have more knowledge about the sections and seating at the Meadowlands than people that actually work there
160. you have more Ticketmaster numbers plugged into your cell phone than friends and family
161. you buy the Asbury Park Press and USA Today every day of the tour, just in case there're articles to add to your Bruce scrapbook.
162. you name your boat Crazy Janey, Rosalita, or Wendy.
163. you name your pets Clarence, Steve, or Bruce.
164. you plan your life around a Bruce concert date.
165. you name your cats "Crazy Janey" and "Go-Kart Mozart"
166. you WILL NOT date anyone that cannot pass your "Bruce test".
167. you call Bob Dylan "The Old Springsteen"

Annie,
#166 is right on, girlfriend! Although at this point, I might settle for someone who just knows that Bruce Springsteen and Rick Springfield are not the same thing!

I dont know what's worse someone not knowing the difference between springsteen and springfield or someone knowing the difference but still preferring springfield.

what a cruel cruel world.

I am guilty of 149 - I can find my way around the Meadowland's parking lots but not around my own block!
