    I was in New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl a few years ago, I accidentally bumped into this guy at the bar, I turned around and it was Charles Barkley. It felt weird because i was taller then him.

          I saw A-roid at a high class strip club and tired to sneak into his V.I.P section and he personally kicked me out.

          I was pretty buzzed so I was just hoping to have a drink and chill in his section for a minute but no go

          It was when he was stuck on 599. I fist bumped him and wished him good luck on 600

                  Nah I left the shit ones off, Roy Williams and Rashad McCants. The others are actually friends, from doing business with them after their sports careers.

                        I've met Jason Witten several times & even went fishing with him just because we have mutual friends

                        I've met Jeff Gordon a few times & been on his boat & to his house a few times (well, Brooks house now) just because we have mutual friends

                        I've smoked a joint or two with Steve Earle just because we both like to smoke dope

                        I've got drunk a few times with Brad Teague just because we both like to get drunk

                        I fealt real bad one time when I watched my Aunt run Waylon Jennings out of her house because he stunk

                        I picked with Johnny Cash one time just because I could

                        My girlfriend blew Rick Flair at a party we were at

                        I talked to Tom Landry on the Phone

                        A lot of people I don't really consider famous, athletes, race car drivers, shit like that, I guess they're famous but not really celebrities, like John Force & Kenny Bernstein, etc... I've partied with Kenny & Brandon a lot & John Force came close to kicking my dads ass at Hooters one night
                        who aint blew mr. Rick Flair my 1st cousin and her husband swear they shared him in aynor,sc on the way to myrtle beach in mid 70s and i sure belive her because she always wanted blow mr. Blackjack Mulliagin too she said but never did cant blame her he was 7ft. tall. the 2 was in florence,sc a lot at the time .........anyone else

                          I met SBR's very own Broke Landers in a McD's restroom. I was going in when he was exiting. I say Yo Brock and pointed to a sign on the wall "Employees must wash hands after each use" and he says he did. I look at his hands and he's got brown shit all over his fingers and corn under his nails. I threatened to tell his manager unless he washed his nasty hands. Made him wash 10 times before I let him out.

                          I'm positive I prevented a cholera outbreak that day. I'm a hero.

                            I met the original Mickey Mouse. He told me stories about chilaxin with Walt Disney, drug use at Disney and some kid he chased around the block for pulling on his tail. He was nice, had lots of stories and very, very short.
