What’s your ‘dang this is a small town’ story

Columbus, despite containing over 2 million people in its metro area, is also somehow a small town where you run into people you know everywhere. Last week, my husband and I went to a small-ish live music performance, with a crowd of maybe 80-100 people. We had not planned on meeting anyone there, but we ran into:

-the founder of an organization I used to work for

-my husband’s friend from college

-a current coworker of mine

-a lady who used to come to vegan potlucks at the weird co-op house I lived in when I went to OSU

-the guy who fostered our dog before we adopted him

What’s your best ‘holy crap this is a small town’ moment?
