John Arne Riise on the time he met his childhood bully in McDonalds after Liverpool won the Champions League.
"I went back to my old city which was Aalesund, because my brother's child was doing something there which I wanted to go and support. Anyway, I parked my car up and I recognised a guy, walking towards me... it was one of the kids who used to bully me."
"I could see he was wearing a McDonald's shirt, and there was a McDonald's about 100 yards away from where I'd parked. I just thought to myself 'I have to do this'."
"I bought myself a red Ferrari, which got delivered just a couple of days before our summer break. I decided to bring it back to Norway with me, because I'd just got it, and I wanted to use it for the month during my break," he explained.
"In Norway, the rule seems to be that you shouldn't believe you're something which you're not, but I was really proud of what I'd achieved that year, and it was always a dream of mine to own that car, so if ever I got the chance, I was going to buy it."
However, despite his humble ethos, he could not resist approaching his former bully to hammer home the comparison.
"There's nothing wrong with working in McDonald's, by the way. But, you know, the comparison was that this guy was there, and I was here - that was my first thought.”
"So, I walked into the McDonald's and went over to his counter. He was looking down, taking orders, and so he called me over and looked up. You know when you have to double-take someone? That's what he did, and that's when I knew he knew who I was.
"He knew that I'd just won the Champions League. He knew the Ferrari was mine, and I knew what he was doing now - again, there's nothing wrong with it, but the comparison was so big."
"He took my order, I got my McDonald's, thanked him very much and walked away.
"Obviously, I threw the McDonald's into the bin, but the feeling I got when I walked out of there, just made everything worth it for me. You don't need to do anything crazy, or say anything stupid, but in that moment, just going up to order from him, for me that was enough. He knew, and I knew."
