    I had booked a solo waterskiing session, as I was on vacation in the area. When I arrived, I had already waited 20 minutes because I was informed there was a delay. I waited... then a woman arrived, either famous (although not to me since I didn't know who it was), a regular, or someone with more money. I obviously heard the whole conversation, since I was still sitting waiting on a rock, and she asked if she could do a session now, where it should have been my turn. The manager came over to me to say he was sorry, that there would be a bit more delay, just enough time to get her to the bay for a few trips back and forth. I laughed and said goodbye. Fame isn't a free pass, and everyone deserves to be treated equally.
