    I met Plaxico Burress at a Cheesecake Factory in New Jersey just a few weeks before he was sent to jail.

    I also went to a Applebee's with Kel Mitchell.

    I also met Phil Hughes, Andy Pettite, and Derek Jeter when I worked for the Yankees.
    Please tell me Kel had orange soda with his meal.

      Speaking of this, Ray McCallum Jr. and his dad were on my flight from Grand Rapids to Atlanta this morning. Not very famous, just found it interesting since they were in coach.

          Grew up with Billie and Mike from Green Day. I talk to them once in awhile. But still Facebook friends with Billie's Brother and mike's sister. I met Curry one time on Bart. And saw Klay at a subway shop in a nice part of Oakland. Also met Sid Haig he is my mom's childhood friend. Scary looking guy but very nice. Thouse are just a few.

            You may know my cousin then, he's buddies with Billie.

            Oddly enough, his name is also Bill.

                He has to be friends with Billie as a kid or lived in Rodeo?

                  Really? Dave was hella cool to me. My brother used to hang out with them as teenagers. James and Lars are *******. Kirk was Hella cool my dad lived right next to his mom's house ( El Cerrito) He would always be playing in her basement or garage? I think the band was called Testmanet. They were loud and fast.

                    Maybe caught him on a bad day, but he was a huge douche at the meet and greet I saw him at. I'm not the biggest Megadeth fan by any stretch, but he was really short toward his fans, as if they wasn't even there.

                    Met Machine Head at that same show. Rob Flynn was a joy to meet.

                    When I met Metallica backstage at a show, I expected Lars to be a douche, but he was the most down to earth of them all, which utterly shocked me. He had a legitimate five minute conversation with me.

                    Kirk was in Exodus before he joined Metallica. Like Testament, another one of those amazing Bay Area thrash bands that didn't quite reach the heights of the Big 4.

                      That is it! Exodus. Thanks. Yeah I was bless with growing up with an older brother in the rock scene then. I hung out with a lot of great band guys. Lars was the biggest *** back then. But Kirk was cool as **** but I kinda New his mom lol I haven't talk to any of those guys in 20 plus years though.

                          Fred and Ben Savage.
                          I was working in Aruba about 12 years ago, I working at the Islands Oil Refinery for about 13 months, loved it there.
                          One night I was just hanging out at one of the local bars on a pier and they set next to me at the bar with their gf/wife. After about a 1/2 hour they noticed I was sitting by myself and watching a playoff baseball game and they started talking to me. I told them I had been on the island working for about 6 months so they asked me to take them to another more happening bar. So I took them to a bar on the "other side" of the island and we had a blast.
                          They called my cell the next night and asked me to meet them again, this time it was just us 3 and we had a blast. On their last night on the island they called me again and I took them to Carlos and Charlies and we had a blast. Two days later is when Natalie Holloway went missing in Aruba and was last seen in Carlos and Charlies.
                          They were in Aruba celebrating Fred's recent wedding.
                          ND Season Ticket Holder since '72.

                            I actually forgot about this but when I was a kid I went to basketball camp with Kevin Hooks who was best known for being in The White Shadow. I remember something about he and his younger brother being talked about as child actors, which we were skeptical about as kids, thinking they were trying to get attention.

                            I also met Darryl Dawkins, Bobby Jones (the former 76er) and Ed Ott. I don't get out much.

                              He's run a store with Billie, played in their side project and is their Tour Manager (maybe? I forget) among whatever else he does for them.

                                Unless he is from my home area I probably don't know him. I met Billie in kindergarten or swim team or little league. I can't remember which it been a long time. He steal the girl I liked in high school with his blue hair. But I am over I now
