    The only celebrity I've talked to is a skateboarder named Rodney Mullen. This was back when skateboarding was hot in puerto rico and everyone did it. It was so weird meeting someone who you have played as in video games [​IMG] Good experience.

    Well I've talked to Milt Stegall when he came to our school. Other than that... :dunno:For those who don't know him he's a WR for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the best receiver in CFL history.

    No, I live in Canada, so not many famous people here...I did meet the founder of Tim Hortons though. For those of you who don't know, Tim Hortons is a huge fast food chain up here.

    Just last night I talked to Fabricio Oberto. He is a regular at the grocery store I work at. Ive also talked to Manu Ginobili and Antonio Daniels, both of them also come to the HEB I work at. Antonio Daniels is only there during the summer because obviously he cant play in D.C. and live in San Antonio during the season. Ive also seen Tim Duncan, Michael Finley, Josh Beckett, and Stone Cold Steve Austin at the store but I have never talked to them.

    Oh sh*t J-Rich's post reminded me a few years ago I was in DC and the Marlins were in town to play the Nationals, which I didn't realize until I woke up and went into the lobby and saw Carlos Delgado, Josh Beckett, and AJ Burnett sitting there.
