A few years ago in Hershey, I told Dmitry Orlov that he should totally get a Twitter account. I explained that he could read our terribly-written bloggy blogs, post selfies with his friends, and be on top of everything – from world news to what Caps fans are saying about him.
Orly looked at me bashfully and said, “No, No, no. That stuff’s not for me.”
Whelp three years later, I’m happy to report a social media miracle has happened. This afternoon, Orlov got on Twitter. He confirmed the news to RMNB.
You can now follow him here at @orlov_09.
(And please do it, we may or may not have a bet going with him that we can get him a few thousand followers by the end of the night.)
Orlov’s first few followers himself were his beautiful girlfriend Amosova and his Russian Caps teammates Evgeny Kuznetsov, Alex Ovechkin, and Stan Galiev.
And as of the publication of this post, he has been followed by five people. Let’s send that number to the moon.
