[QUOTE="B7BlownSnake, post: 15604246, member: 112096"] That's awesome. I've met a few sports stars, and they've been pretty cool. I sat next to David Robinson on a plane and we talked about basketball for most of the flight. Saw Dennis Rodman at Claim Jumper (actually pretty good happy hour) at South Coast Plaza; he sat down and ordered drinks with me and my girlfriend when we made eye contact, talked about random stuff for about 15 minutes. Saw Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire at the Beverly Wilshire a few years back. Was walking with my parents, noticed they were eating but didn't say anything. They called us over because my mom was wearing a Kobe jacket. Talked for a few minutes, asked why if LA was Lakers Town no one had stopped to talk to them. I told them a different crowd in Beverly Hills than the rest of LA. Cool guys. Dad was next to Dan Marino on a plane to FL. Nice guy, talked about football the whole flight. It's always nice to meet athletes who are nice to fans. I never like to ask for an autograph or even a picture. Just try to shake their hand, and talk a bit if the opportunity is there. That usually gets a good response. [/QUOTE]
