For one reason or another I was in counseling at my university quite some time ago. My counselor (also my mentor) is a bamf anyway, but he was asking me how Anime-Fest in Dallas went last year, I told him about the MLP stuff and he told me he's actually a fan. He watches it with his son.
Also, I was submitting an online assignment for a class of user-support and help-desk concepts. I noted in my introduction that i was a brony. My teacher and adviser told me that heis kids got him into it and that he's enjoyed it thus far.
On another occasion, I was kind of in a slump, wondering if I was putting too much time and energy into MLP. My doubt was alleviated however; I had been giving a series of speeches in my communication class all of which were on bronies. One day amidst my doubt, my classmate/group-mate introduced me to a friend of hers and told her that I was doing a speech series on MLP - the girl immediately shook my hand and said that she wanted to be my friend. xP
Later that very same day, I was at a restaurant with my sister when this girl looked at me, and yelled across the restaurant, "I LIKE YOU PONY SHIRT!".
I was wearing Vinyl Scratch that day. I yelled thank you.
