| Who Famous Have You Met?
Well after my gong show weekend at UFC 102 and meeting a couple people I was wondering who famous have other people met. I'm talking about going up to them shaking there hand and getting a pic taken. Not just walking by and saying OMFG.
I met a lot of people there but by far my most favorite would have to be this dude. Ya I have met other people before but actually chatting him up and have drinks with him ment everything. 
So who have you guys met?

^ OP, who's that dood? Maybe I don't watch enough TV or something..
Also depends on what you mean "met". As in chilling with them, or just seeing them on the street and/or grabbing a pic with them?
Hmm.. does Gordon Campbell count?  | |

In terms of actually going up and shaking their hand, talking, pics etc nobody except for DT lol
Sure maybe not the most famous but growing up in Vancouver being a huge sports fan it was pretty sweet.

I'm talking about getting a pic with who ever famous you met. Who expects to chill with someone famous.

i've met lots of djs and celebs at shows, events, etc... but here are some really random meetings:
i met guru from gangstarr. he was running to his show and i was blazing in an alley with some friends. i see this dude comin at me im thinking, WTF is that guru? he was late for his show, but he showed us some love for a quick minute.
and that flame guy from fantastic4/cellular was bored and following us around in a club in HK one time.. we were like dude, arent u that guy? lol
not sure if this counts, but i was at racks in hk, and played against nick tse's sister jen. shes pretty good but she got owned
and speaking of gordon campbell, i was eating beside him once at NU. and yes, he was drinking, but no i didnt bother him.

partied with Brendan Shanahan, Kris Draper, Steve Yzerman, and Chris Cheerios on my 22nd Birthday at some country bar and then the Roxy in Vancouver when a buddy and I went down to watch a game. the game where Bertuzzi scored the hat trick. Shanahan and Draper were super nice and friendly. Yzerman was a little cold and Cheerios was a deuce.
