E-mail without formal introduction?

Basically, I met a guy at an alumni event for a school I'm considering transferring to. Introduced myself and talked about his job, however pussied out from asking for his business card because we had literally only talked for 3 minutes and there was a queue behind me.

Anyways, I want to reach out to him. Should I send him a cold-email saying and mention I met him at the event, or should I do a literal cold-email and not mention I had ever met him?

Thanks y'all, sorry for the noob question.
