Lynn Swann?

I met him in a camera store at the mall when i was a kid living in Pittsburgh. He was still playing for the Stillers at the time.

Stillers

I met Ed McMahon at a signing for a floor store when I lived in San Antonio. I was just a lil guy in the early 80's I didn't know who he was until that night... I got to stay up and watch the tonight show.


aaaaahhh yeahhhh boy.

he smelled like gin, cigars, and hai karate and he seemed to like my batman shirt.

heyooooo

Did he try to handcuff you?

That would be Janet Weno.

George Plimpton...we were both drunk, and he was waiting to go on a local TV show here...he was really friendly, down to earth and willing to talk about any of his past exploits.

Funny you mention him..... once as a kid...he totally hooked us up

Long story short...we were at soccer camp and he was filming that sports legends show with Pele....It started raining and the whole entourage took off....me and this dude from Australia followed them and tried to sneak into the building where Pele was.....Anyway, we got checked at the door and George was walking in....my Aussie buddy said we're with him....and George nodded to let us go.....cool as hell. He had no stake in it, just being a cool guy

we got to hang with pele for like 45 minutes while they were setting up the camera

I met Jake Lamotta, George Foreman and Jim Kelly at the garden once...all 3 were solid dudes....LOLing with the boxing fans, signing shit

There were ton of famous folks there that night...most were dicks...LOL

[Chriza]

I've met Wes Studi and Anne Rice, and I pissed off Kirtsten Dunst once and got her to give me "Fuck off" eyes

I sold 20 grand worth of home theater equipment to Adam Sandler but it was through his people, didn't actually meet him

And I saw Gene Hackman at a restaurant but didn't talk to him. My buddy followed him into the bathroom and intentionally bumped into him hoping to get some Hackman piss on himself.

[Scott]

you've actually met?



I gotta go with Ruiz.

He seemed to know he was on the clock with his 15 minutes and he made the most of it.
*a doughhead inspired thread

I went to the first Ruiz-Holyfield fight in Vegas. We flew out with Ruiz's entourage. They were suprisingly well behaved on the plane. I was with a bachelor party who was not so much well behaved.

[Stew Nod]

I asked Lennox Lewis what he thought of Riddick Bowe and he said...."chicken shit mon, duckin me!" He had a fine Nubian princess with him too

[stripes]

bill murray is always cool to everyone ..probably high all the time

[Chigs]

I was ten...about six months before his incident.


Ive met many more, and many more famous celebrities (mainly athletes). I really like telling people Ive met Juice, though

[Stew Nod]

Crazy the Juice was a loved guy b4 that shit went down...he was almost america's favorite negro.....lol

Teddy Atlas was cool as hell too

[Stew Nod]

Teddy Atlas was cool as hell too

LOL, I met Teddy two summers ago at a street fair...He was trying to do a grind dance on my old lady....Funny dude

[Super Mario]

Definitlty Hulk HOgan . Took a picture with me at a Movie Theater and signed an autograph for me. Anytime someone talks bad about him I always defend him and say what a nice guy he is.

[Mojopin]

I met Jon Voight on the set of Rosewood between scenes. Really cool, friendly guy.

Every NHL player I've ever met has been friendly and respectful.

Jonathan Fishman from Phish was a good guy too.

[HeinousMark]

I guess I never really met anyone famous, except I helped Horton Heat set up his equipment for a corporate party once, and we talked about his amp and guitar a little bit. Said "hi" to Junior Brown once, he was friendly. I put in a few years at a high end photo-lab in Dallas, and printed portraits and events photos for a lot of famous locals....Mark Cuban's wedding pictures, portrait for Ross Perot, some socialite's wedding that had Dweezil Zappa and Lisa Loeb as guests, pictures of Janine Turner's ranch, Raymond Nasher's art collection, stuff for some of the Marcus family (Neiman-Marcus), maybe a few other folks, but I never met any of them. I also printed copy art for Buck Taylor, a semi-famous actor who also paints, and actively runs a real ranch, and I got a personalized signed painting from him. It's Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday, and it's like the only real art I own....Buck was Turkey Creek Jack Johnson in Tombstone. I thought that was extremely gracious of him.
