I noticed my video for my Mortal Kombat Atari 2600 homebrew suddenly had a lot of activity today, so I searched it on Google, and lo and behold, Ed Boon (one of the original creators of Mortal Kombat) had tweeted about it earlier today: You have to understand that when I made this homebrew, I expected maybe 100 or so people to see it on an Atari forum. Now, the creator of the entire series on which this homebrew was based has acknowledged it. Anyway, just wanted to share something cool that happened today! And to make this a discussion, anybody ever experience something similarly awesome on the internet (like a celebrity or wrestler acknowledging you or something you made)? |

Congratulations!
I've had a few obscure ECW guys retweet me (Al Snow and New Jack) but nothing that comes close to this.

This sounds ****ing awesome. The video too is awesome as well. One of the coolest things that ever happened to me was getting a reply and a retweet from Becky Lynch. Mind you, this was before she debuted on NXT TV. Also, one of the tweets got retweeted from Jessica Havok.

That's dope, man. Congrats!
Zack Ryder messaged me on here on one of my old accounts asking if I could make him a logo for his Youtube show. I said I'd do it but then he ended up just asking for one on twitter and never got back to me. This was when he was first starting it too so it was before WWE took any interest. Having a graphic I created seen by anybody from the wwe could of been cool but I think I scared him off by marking out a little in my reply, lmao.

It just keeps getting better. While searching for the other creator of MK (John Tobias), I found this from a few weeks ago: So apparently both creators of MK have tweeted about my game. This is incredible. Thanks for all the kind words guys!  |

Another cool thing that happened to me was when CNet took a screencap from one of my YouTube videos and gave me credit. Here is the link to the article: www.cnet.com/news/man-jumps-on-tracks-to-get-cell-phone-killed-by-train/Here was the video in question: What's even sweeter, I took this video on my 23rd birthday in 2011. So cool to be acknowledged by people we barely know. Hell, I was shown on PIX11 (the CW affiliate in New York City) news last year on back-to-back days. |

Back in the Myspace days, I showed a piece of fan art to Colt Cabana. He wrote back asking if I could send it to him, so he could put it on his fridge (this was the OVW days). Well, I did...and he did:   |
