\u201cIt was honestly overwhelming,\u201d Smith said about meeting Will Smith, \u201cWhen he was pulling up, and the Netflix team was telling us he\u2019s here, I started getting so excited to the point where I was shaking.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Netflix team told Smith they would be taking a picture and he ended up right next to the famous actor with his arms around him. <\/span><\/p>\n

Smith couldn\u2019t believe it at first that he had been chosen. It has been Smith\u2019s dream to meet Will Smith and as Smith got older he thought it would never happen. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI mean I wanted to believe it so bad and I started clearing my schedule and doing some shopping and things like that just in case it turned out to be real.\u201d Said Smith. <\/span><\/p>\n

Smith said Netflix allowed him to bring a plus one. Smith decided to bring one of his long time friends, and band mate in Delta Springs<\/strong>,<\/span> Sam Stevens<\/b>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWill Smith smiled the whole time and thanked us all for being there and was just genuinely nice and appreciative,” said Smith. “The trip was a blast and something we\u2019ll never forget.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
