    I think back in 2005 or 2007 Phil ivey. That's no surprise. Took a picture with him. Real quiet. And many those eyes... Even away from the table they dart like crazy

    Saw a few in the same trip once:

    Craig Bellamy was having lunch on the next table over from us.
    Keiron Richarson was playing roulette on our table.
    Greg Oden hanging out at XS.
    Probably most famous though was Ozzy Osbourne walking by the bar in Encore.

    Not in Vegas, but I saw McNabb in the Bahamas. I was at the hotel front desk and he came out and asked where the sportsbook was because he wanted to bet on March Madness.

    My wife and I played craps wih Joe Namath at Harrahs for about an hour or two. Sat down next to Scotty Nyguen at a slot machine talked to him for about 15 minutes. Bumped into Allen Iverson in AC at the Taj and talked to him as he was sitting down to play three card poker.

    Robert Patterson: The guy is deathly white irl, can't miss him. He's very skinny and tall. I kept starring at him, when he walked into the elevator I said, "Are you the vampire guy?"

    He laughed and said, "Hi, I'm Robert, nice to meet you" and he shook my hand. this was during the first Twilight. I had no idea what Twilight was or who he was, I just recognized him from the tabloids.

    Other notables (but they live here)
    Flava Flav
    Marie Osmond (very nice lady)
    Carrol Shelby
    Lance Burton (his house is very close to where I live)

    I once sat at the same Starbucks table with the key grip on the 1980 horror thriller Fade to Black.

    As if that wasn't enough brush with greatness for one lifetime, I shared an elevator with the associate producer of Saved by the Bell.

    On my last trip to London, I encountered a man who was collecting cans outside of Gordon Ramsay's fine dining establishment Petrus. He claimed to be Gordon's brother and told me for 10 pounds he could get me a private table with him. Obviously Gordon must have needed him for an emeregency meeting because I didn't see him again.

    My girl and I went to see George Carlin perform in the late 90's.....after the show, outside the venue, we saw Mr. Carlin all alone walking his dog.....he posed for a picture and asked us how we liked the show.....he couldn't have been nicer. RIP

    I've seen him in LA. dude is the most normal looking guy. Nothing special about him, he could pass as a mechanic.
