Didn't put the effort into seeing if this thread was already made. I met Mike Tyson yesterday and took a picture with him. I met Frank Mir today and got a picture with him. Who have you met?

Ugly Bastard · 02-28-2011, 08:42 AM

You realize that's a lame OP without actually including the pics, right? If you're a burn victim or something, don't worry, we'll be respectful. (10)

I met Ugly Bastard. He was on ESPN once playing cards.

Ugly Bastard · 02-28-2011, 09:07 AM

Sick brag.

DDTempest · 02-28-2011, 09:14 AM

When I was younger I met Shawn Kemp ...

At work I once rang up Bob from Bob & Tom and saw him on multiple occasions shopping at my Walgreens.

DJ FC · 02-28-2011, 09:31 AM

Met Frank Lampard in a club in South Kensington.

It was well known on the jiu-jitsu boards that I'm pretty good friends with Rex Brown. I was classmates with he and Darrell Abbott. I also once offered to teach Darrell the guitar solo to "Runnin with the Devil" back when his band was playing Van Halen and Kiss cover songs (poorly too and without guitar solos) at pool parties in Arlington, Texas.

Here is the thing, when I met celeberties, I don't bother them. I might shake their hand, but I don't take pictures with them. Here is a few that I have met.

1. Matt Serra
2. Tim Sylvia
3. Jose Aldo
4. Shaun McCorkle
5. Steve from Springer
6. Rick Fox
7. Edgerin James
8. Marvin Harrison
9. Brad Stevens ( Butler's Head Coach )
10. Pauly Shore
11. UB
Etc.

There is probably a couple more, but the list already looks awful compared to your guy's anyway.

If jiu jitsu counts, not only did I meet Jeff Glover, I half-guard swept him and later did karaoke with him.

Also met and conversed with BJ Penn. He used to work out with my coach from chicago.

But have you met UB?

If BJJ counts. I met and got contorted by Carlos Machado. He also gave me my purple belt.

Cocktooth · 02-28-2011, 10:46 AM

BJJ def. counts.

DJ FC · 02-28-2011, 12:02 PM

I met Carlos Gracie.

Saint DH · 02-28-2011, 01:18 PM

I met Evan Bayh...does that count?

Repugnant Abomination · 02-28-2011, 02:31 PM

Shit heap.

I'll post the pics when I get back to my laptop.

Maybe. I just thought meeting two different former heavyweight champs in two different sports in a span of two days was pretty cool, so I shared.

DJ FC · 02-28-2011, 05:46 PM

I met Ric Flair at a TNA event in London.

Cocktooth · 02-28-2011, 06:01 PM

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I paid money to take the pic with Tyson. I actually felt bad about the Frank Mir one. He was right in the middle of a conversation with someone and I was saying we shouldn't bother him. But my friend just decided to yell out "Frank!" He came over, so I jumped in.

Well most of you don't know this but my dad (and by extension, me) is actually very wealthy. Anyway, I went to high school with Paris Hilton, I've got her cellphone # and all that, you know how it is.

You get to smell her panties at a party or anything?

angry pancake · 02-28-2011, 07:19 PM

I've met Red McCombs. He's an asshole too.

I'm so winning this so far with Rex and Darrell. Especially for punking Darrell as a kid.

Does it count if you paid to get your picture taken?

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 02-28-2011, 07:48 PM

I've shaken the hand of President George W. Bush.

I also played foosball with a congressman.

I have Liza Minelli's cell phone number ...

SittinOnDubsWGW · 02-28-2011, 11:25 PM

I shot the shit with Tiesto for about 5 minutes while waiting for a cab this past halloween in Vegas and that has been the only celebrity I have ever taken a picture with.

I've "met" some musicians/athletes/D-listers in the fact that we've been at the same bar/casino/airport as to where it's been a simple, "Hey, I liked you in ____. Have a good night." I don't really get star-struck or go out of my way to meet them.

I've met UB.
