When An SEO Bumps Into Matt Cutts At The Airport

Remember, Matt Cutts, the currently on leave Google spam lead, was speaking at UNC-Chapel Hill? Well, on his way home via the airport in Raleigh, he was stopped by an SEO and military personnel, Nicholas Cardot, who spotted him walking by.

Nicholas didn't talk SEO or tech with Matt, instead they talked about family and went on their respective ways.

The funny part is that Nicholas didn't go to Matt's talk, he was just stopping over from Fort Bragg, NC by route of a flight from Raleigh to Chicago.

I wonder how many times Matt gets stopped at random places when not traveling for SEO purposes.

He posted the story of their encounter on Google+.
