Jim Breuer used to frequent the pizzeria where I work. Not so much anymore, but I still do deliveries to his house. Very cool guy. And his dad is hilarious too. I am sorry to tell you, his dad passed away a few months ago. I love it when he is on Opie and Jim. Aww. That's a shame. I knew he wasn't in good health, but I didn't know he passed. |

I met Steve Blackman at a pizzeria in NYC HE'S NOT EVEN A REAL PERSON!!! I met the stunt Actor from Creatire From The Black Lagoon here in Jacksonville,FL at Retro Rama. Very nice person. Although he wouldn't tell any stories from the set. I met John Cena and Doug Basham at Qudoba. Unfortunately I was under the influence at the time and asked "Whats it like?" And his smartass comment was "Well the food is good, but I've had better!" No John, I was talking about being a wrestler... He took his time chatting with me, but Doug was super pissed. I don't blame him, because I kept calling him Danny. My favorite encounter though, was with a man who playrd Lucious in Planet of the Apes. He was the teen Ape at the end. He was very nice, and he stood to shake my hand. I told him please don't, which he refused and said " Kid, anyone that wants to meet me, is an honor. I have somehow managed to remain an icon with such a small role." I asked what Charlton Heston was like, amd he said he was nothing but a proffesional, and a lady killer! |

I have 2 experiences with Hulk Hogan. First one I diddnt really get to meet him. It was when he first started up with the nWo and I saw him in the mall and he was all kayfabe. Dressed in all black, nwo shirt and hollywood bandana. Looked just like he did on TV it was kinda cool, but he just looked like an ass hole and my brothers and I did not want to approach him and ask for his auto.(I was only 9 at the time.)
My other experience was when I was about 16 or 17. I wasnt into wrestling at the time and my friends and I were skateboarding outside of a walmart. Well unknown to me at the time hulk came out with a book and was doing a booking signing that day. So we were outside skating and a limo pulls up and stops right in front of us. The back window rolls down and Hulk sticks his arm out the window, flexes and says "Put on some pads Brother!" We yelled "Hogan" and he gave us a thumbs up and drove off.
I also used to know Brian Blair's kid. I met Brian a couple times but i never really talked to him about wrestling. His son was kinda a sh*thead that did alot of drugs and he did not have a good relationship with his dad so I never felt comfortable going to his house.

Thought of a couple others.
I met Antonio Gates at a water park here in SD. I wouldnt normally go up to a celebrity but I had my cousin with me and she wanted to so I had an in.
It was funny how it happened too. There is a running joke between my friends and me where we would see someone wearing a jersey of an athlete and go "hey look it's LT!" And it could be like some short fat white dude. This time, we were sitting down and I look up and go "hey look it's Antonio Gates " and my girlfriend was like "yeah right" and I was like "no seriously it's him look".
Talk about boy who cried wolf.
I also attended a wedding with HOF pitcher Orel Hershiser in Fresno. My dads cousin used to baby sit for him. My bro and I briefly met him. Pretty cool.
My lady has a whole bunch of meets including the cast of SOA outside thier studio in north LA. She pulled a CM showstopper there.

I met Jason David Frank, Kaz, and Christopher Daniels in the same day when I went to SDCC for the first time. All 3 were very nice.
I met the creator of Megaman twice and got his autograph and he asked me where I got my ThinkGeek Megaman Buster.
I went to meet Stan Lee but didn't actually get to say hi or talk to him since there was a big huge ass security guard in front of him, so I only got his autograph and that was it.

I don't really hunt celebrities, but due to my work, I meet and spent a long time in Stan Lee's presence. He's everything you think and want him to be.

I attended a college lecture from Edward James Olmos once and shook his hand after it was over.
I also met Luol Deng randomly at the Taste of Chicago one year, when he was still a Bull.

Jack Palance used to come into a lot of stores in my area since he used to live around here. He didn't like to be bothered while shopping from what I understand
