the only person i've met was Mark Taylor of the Australian cricket team when i used to live in AUS, his son was on my cricket team, and me and him were pretty good friends. Mark came to quite a few of the games despite him having to play aswell. it was pretty sweet. real funny when the opposing team wants pictures of the other teams kid and his dad. haha

A couple years ago I played golf with Ed Jovanoski, Andrew Cassels, and his wife (who is smoking hot), back when both of them play for the canucks. They are both super nice guys, however that can't be said for Cassels' wife.
I've also met Pavel and Valerie Bure, but that was at a special autograph signing thing (so I don't count it) when Pavel first came to Vancouver, as well as Bobby Orr at a Celebrity Pro-Am, so I don't really count that either.
Also met and had beers with Mike Douglas and Philou (at different times).

and my uncle is neidermeyer from animal house, the mistro from seinfeld, and the bad guy in the stupids.
and for all of the packer fans, way back in like 5th grade I got to do this bowling with the pros thing because I won an essay contest. Got to meet some packers like antonio freeman, and bill schoeder. And once when I was really fucking sick in the hospital around christmas in 1st grade, reggie white came and brought me a pair of the packers kickers socks, to bad I was so damn sick that I couldnt remeber it the next day.

ehh... I'm not really one to be starstruck, but I've met Patrick Leahy and Bernie Sanders (and I think they are both dirtbags). Then I met some pro skiers @ Mt. Hood. Simon Dumont - pretty full of himself and thinks he's excellent at basketball. Then Pete Olenick, Dave Crichton, a few others. The only one that I actually liked was Mark Amba. He helped me out with my corks. He was nice enough. Most celebrities, I've found, are pretty full of themselves.
