    I was about 10 feet away from Charlie V when they were doing lay up drills at half time. That is basically it. I felt like saying, "Hey, Charlie", but I decided not to. It was pretty cool though. Never met an NBA player or seen an NBA player besides a game because I live in Canada...

If he had not been diagnosed with Meningitis who knows how great he would have been.For those who dont know Meningitis is the inflammation of the membranes covering the brain and the spinal cord, usually due to bacterial or viral infections elsewhere in body that has spread into the blood and into the cerebrospinal fluid.Wiki Wiki!</div>yeah, he was a beast. almost got a quadruple double. he had nine steals, and the other team was like dribbling the ball right in front of him so he could get an easy steal, but he wouldn't take it bc he thought it'd be cheating. classy guy.

    My dads friend used to work at the Celtics practice facility in Waltham, MA and he took me there one day. I didn't get to go and watch them practice because the doors were obviously locked, but I did see Kenny Anderson and Tony Battie walking into the gym. I didn't approach them though because I was like 10 or 11 and I was in shock because Battie was like 97 feet taller than me. Haha.

    LMAO wolverine what was the point of lying about playing Vince 1 on 1. And then trying to say you scored 5 on him. Haha wow. Now I know why there is a "want to kick wolverine30's ass club" out there now.

    My Sister was volunteering at this place where the Legion of Doom were(When the other dude was still alive) and I came with her. They were signing autographs for people. When they were all done they went into the backroom and shook my hand and gave me an autograph and we talked for a bit. Pretty scary since I was young and I was scared of their spikes. [​IMG]

    Well I don't work either, but I was at the olive garden with my mom picking up my cousin(she works there). We saw Allen Iverson there. He had two HUGEEEEE body guards though. I mean monstrous. 6'6 300 pound guys. I was too scared to approach him haha. I was afraid of getting stepped on. [​IMG]

    I have seen Carmelo quite a few times. When he played for Syracue. If that counts.
