    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

    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.
