I think I'll have Todd Bridges call me so I can say "Whatchu talkin bout, Willis?"

I wonder how much crap they take at the hollywood clubs for that.

LMAO Beetlejuice is in there!

A callcenter for hollywood had-beens. Cute.

Kaito Kalin. Classic.

OKAY $30 TO TALK TO HORSHACK? WHERE IS MY VISA CARD

I used to have MC Hammer's cell phone number, and I would call it from time to time. Unfortunately I would always get his voicemail. He's all into Jesus now, and his outoing voicemail message was something to the effect of how we need to praise god and yadda yadda yadda. Too preachy for me.

Well, he better find solace in something after pissing away millions on pants and hoes

pants and hoes.

Barry Goldwater was a Ham Radio enthusiast in his later years before he died.

One day, while I was in college in Arizona, I received a phone call. The voice came on and asked if it was me. I acknowledged him and he went on to give me a coded message. He said there were two tricycles and a skateboard in LasVegas waiting for me and then hung up.

It turns out one of my dad's friends (retired US defense attache to Pakastan) was screwing around on his ham radio in Vegas while my parents were visiting and got ahold of Barry Goldwater in Phoenix and asked him to dial me up on the phone with the message. My parents had just told him my car broke down.

Goes to show you that retired politicians really don't have much to do!

R.I.P.

OMG!

Christopher Atkins used to be a fantasy... Used to wonder what happened to him. Now I wish I didn't know.

This depressing.

Bet every one of you bastards wishes you had spoken with Fred 'Rerun' Berry before he died this week.

Which obscure icon will be next? Fred Savage? Anson Williams? Donnie Most? Tony Dow?

Oh the humanity!

That is soooo sad....

Post your brush with obscurity!

I have had several...

In 1979 I met Reggie Jackson in a Shop Rite in Staten Island, NY.

In 1985 I met Bryan Adams in Heathrow Airport in London while waiting for a connecting flight to Berlin.

In 1992 I had backstage passes to a U2 concert at Hershey Arena and I got to meet everyone but Larry Mullens.

That same year, the industrial band I was in was the opening act for the band Live. We opened for them in York, PA at the college.

I worked for Michael's Music in Bloomsburg, PA...where I lived...and I got to play guitar with Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme) and sell John Denver guitar strings and got him to autograph my strap (was there playing for the Bloomsburg Fair)

In 1999 my wife and went back to Scotland (where I am from originally) and got to come within 10 feet of the Queen as well as Sean Connery...as they were walking into parliament in Edinburgh.

Swear to Allah, Mr. Belding came into my club last Saturday. NACA (National Association of College Activities) was having their yearly regional auditions for local colleges and he is now a promoter.

Weird stuff .. that is the most recent. So many boring ones, but that is fresh baby.

I don't even know his real name!

I almost ran over Keanu Reeves when driving home from my friends house in Westwood. The stupid fuck parked his motorcycle RIGHT on a blind corner. He yelled obsenities at me as I drove away.

That's about it

Drew Carey - Cleveland Calves game (in cleveland)

Tony Danza - Vale Ski resort (near Denver)

Woody Allen - Video Store (Stamford, CT and he had a late fee so I refused to rent him the video haha, andit was one he was in...even better lol..I was 16)

Harry Connick Jr. - The deli line at the grocery store STamford, CT, he was directly in front of me and I couldn't remember why he looked so damn familair until someone else mentioned it.

I have a picture with the entire detroit pistons team somewhere (as a little kid). In Detroit.

I've met others but I can't think of them atm.

I never really met anyone big except Enrique Eglesias when i we were little kids sposivly since parents were somewhat aquaintances, and i met Darrell Armstrong once, by met i mean i said "hi" or some shit
I see shaq's old house on the lake a lot, and tiger wood's new lot (i think) and some more of celebritys, but never them themselfs

I met Lionel Richie at an airport magazine/coffee stand the day I got back from my honeymoon.

The funniest thing about it was that the night before on the cruise-ship, I had gotten all forked up, and did kareoke to "Easy" by the Commodores...

Coincidence?

Ducru

I literally bumped into Keanu Reeves in New York. We'd just picked up our friend who was released from police custody after his arrainment, and he was talking animatedly about his experiences, so neither he nor the third guy there saw Keanu as he bumped into me, said 'I'm sorry' and walked on.

Oh and I once grabbed Renée Toft Simonsen (THE FACE OF THE 80s!!!)'s ass when I was drunk!

Well, because of my music background here are mine...

I was in Debbie Gibson's band in 88 for the Out Of The Blue Tour

Played with Branford Marsalis and his bepop trio

Met the Rolling Stones at breakfast as they were leaving Air Studios Montserrat after recording Steel Wheels

Met Muhammad Ali in Dubai, United Arab Emirates

and a whole host of Jazz musicians most of you would not recognize.

Bob Hope as he flew into Flightcraft <Portland airport>
Rachael Welch.. same place..

I worked there for 8 yrs, actually said hi to her she looked and smiled back.

mick jagger once ate a mars bar out of my vagina.

When I was a kid, I was at an Olive Garden in Evansville and Michael Gross (the father from family ties) was dining there as well.

Other than that, I worked at a virtual Nascar driving simulator thingy about 5 years ago where I met Dale Earnhardt, DE Jr., Michael Waltrip, and Kenny Irwin.

Okay .. I'm going to try and remember most of mine. I was a bellman at the only decent Little Rock Hotel for 5-6 years through one of my college stints.

The only person I made an effort to see and never showed was Sam Kinnison. He reserved half a floor and went to a different hotel. We still charged him. He died a month later. Bah!

Perhaps I should write a book.

I met Bruce Springsteen in a Karaoke Bar in London!!

I didn't realize it was him at first and was talking with my friend and we were commenting how well the guy singing was doing. It was only later when he barreled into me when edging his way to the bar and I turned to glare angrily that I noticed who he was. The bartender laughed at me for being so slow to realize who he was.

He did a few more songs a bit later - it was kinda cool.

I never really ran into any other celebrity - though my desire to stalk Keanu Reeves this summer when he was filming down the street from my house was huge. I resisted out of laziness

Little Richard eats dinner at my grandmothers house whenever he is in Nashville.

That guy is a crack up. He was supposed to give a speech at our university and showed up 30 mintues late. He was drunk as a skunk and all he did was talk about how drunk he was. The audience was booing him for most of the time.

Pretty funny I thought. He really doesn't give a damn.

Seebs worked at the Excelsior!

Most recent:

Saturday, I spent 4 hours with Mike Modano (Dallas Stars) at his Cottage.

I think the word you are looking for is rided.

I got to see Collin Powell from about 10 feet away last spring when he visited the American Embassy in Ottawa. (I thought it was Kaufi Annan until I check out the news as I got back to the office.)

I think Ky does this just to troll me, but here goes:

The word (well, spelling) he is looking for is rode

Rided is not a word; http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=rided

Not every verb in the english language can be made past-tense by adding a fucking e-fucking-d as a suffix.

Thank you.

gee thanks professor.

I played 6th through 9th grade football with this guy:
