just yesterday i was in zombie boardshop, and i went in and i was looking at some balla hats, and i heard people talking about something like 'in my stepchild video part' so i looked over cause the guy seemed like he was pretty cool. and it was joe sexton! the snowboarder! idk if any of you guys are into snowboarding. but hes got mad skills. so right when i recognized it was him he was walking out the doors. dangs. but i was pretty pumped :]

and i skated with andy macdonald.

and those are pretty much the only 2 pros ive seen. i think.

only famous people I've seen are danny way and P-rod

i met alot of pro hockey players, Simon Chamberlain, Goldy Honn (sp) and Kurt Russell, uhmm, yea thats basically it..

Mike V,
Tony Hawk,
Riley Hawk

the above were when they did a demo at The Works skatepark, Leeds.

Secondly skated with P-Rod and 2 other lads from the PlanB team in Hyde Park skatepark Leeds, and then at the Quarry house steps 3 days after.

Then we met the Jart spanish pro team on the morrisons 14 set in Leeds centre...wasn't hard to tell someone big was there due to like 30 people surrounding the stairs.

Flip are doing a signing at my local skateshop so I'll meet some then I guess, prob buy a flip board and get it signed by the team, that should be sick :)

ive said "hi" to Michael Jordan at a golf outing. I got Matt Starks from the Steelers autograph

I skated with Andy Macdonald at a demo at the Shelter Skatepark. I have also talked to Mike Vallely at the Zumiez Couch Tour 2006 when they were opening up an autograph booth for him at the other end of the place. When he opened up the pack of posters, I got the first one in the pack and he signed it. I don't think I've talked to any other big skaters or anything since I live in a small town. My dad saw Flava Flav in an airport though, lol. My dad travels a lot, so he gets to go into the Crown Rooms at airports, and he walks in and there was Flava Flav. My dad took his picture with him after talking with him a bit. The pic is on my dad's laptop, but if he brings it home tonight I can try to post it, lol.

I saw chocolate skateboarding near where i live and talked to them and all, it was soooo awesome. I mean they're just regular people but its still awesome

apart from that i've seen quite a few local actors and actresses from barcelona just walking in the street. oh and once I saw a football player in the street and got my photo taken with him, it was Luis Garcia (use to play for liverpool) and i'm not a football fan but i adore that man haha

Also if anyone has played the old "Soider Of Fortune" games, the voice of the main chachter i have meet him in real life i got to shake his hand.

I met the whole 2003 sharks team and got there autographs and i also met frank thomas and eric chavez from the Oakland Athletics

Edit:and i live near one of the 49ers

Am I the only one who isn't impressed with meeting famous people? I mean, I'd love to meet them but I wouldn't go crazy.

Like I met a couple of NBA, NFL, & MLB players when I went to some games...and I also met Chris Rock when he did stand up in Detroit...but I didn't go as crazy as I thought I would.

same here, i just see regular people when i see them

My mom knows the guy that played Sebastian in the little mermaid, I've talked to him on the phone before.

lmao.

Other than that, I've only talked to/skated with a few AM's that nobody really knows about. (Sturgil Horn, Steve Fox, Eric Reeves). I've seen Justin Brock, but I never got to talk with him or anything.

Ah, almost forgot i saw the racing guy Richard Petty, well actually all the time i do, he lives like 5 houses away from my dad.

I've seen president Bush.

I just happened to be leaving publix with my mom, we saw a crowd of people by the road, we went to see what was going on, and as soon as we got there he went by in a limo waving at everyone.

I agree with razz though, I don't really get much out of seeing "famous" people. I mean, it's cool and all, but there's no one I'd ever flip out over, haha.

On the subject of Presidents I saw Bill Clinton campaigning in Asheboro for Hilary. And i also agree with you and razz ^.

Ah, almost forgot i saw the racing guy Richard Petty, well actually all the time i do, he lives like 5 houses away from my dad.

^Do you mean "Gerard Way", as in the lead singer for My Chemical Romance?

Let him hear you label him as emo or scene and you'll most likely have his fist meeting your face. haha. He said in an interview that nothing really pisses him off more than when people call him or his music Emo/Scene.
