His Biggest Fan – a found letter to Tiger Woods.
[This week, Open Letters joins forces with Other People's Mail, the dormant zine of found letters. Today's letter was found abandoned in a photocopying store in New York City in 1997.]
Dear Tiger Woods,
How are you? I hope that you are in good health.
I am fine. I am writing this letter to you in reference to the letter that I wrote to Barbara Walters in reference to The May 21, 1997 TV interview with you.
Included in this letter is a copy of The May 25, 1997 letter.
In The May 25, 1997 letter that I wrote to Barbara Walters I mentioned Ebony Magazine.
Since I mentioned Ebony Magazine I thought that I would write a letter to The Publisher of Ebony Magazine.
Dear Tiger, on the same day, May 25, 1997 * I wrote a letter to The Sports Editor of The New York Daily News.
The May 25, 1997 letter that I wrote to The New York Daily News is all about you, Tiger Woods.
So included in this letter is a copy of The May 25, 1997 letter that I wrote to The Daily News.
I hope that you find it to be easy reading.
Dear Tiger let’s be honest for a moment.
Dear Tiger ever since I wrote that letter to you all I can think about is you.
All I can think about is what it would be like to be with you.
Dear Tiger I was wondering what it would be like to be with you.
Dear Tiger, you are all that I want.
You are all that I need.
Dear Tiger I want to meet you right away.
Dear Tiger I need to meet you right away.
Dear Tiger before I proceed to write to any of the other celebrities, sports announcers, and TV personalities
I would like to meet you so that I can get a field for you so
I will know what it is all about.
So that when I write to these people I will know what I am talking about because
I will have already talked about it with you.
Before I write to anymore sports announcers and TV personalities
I need to talk to you.
I need to talk to you, Tiger.
I want to meet you, Tiger.
I want to meet you, Tiger before I write to anymore sports announcers and TV personalities.
I need to meet you, Tiger before I write to anymore sports announcers and TV personalities about you.
