Sport stars can be celebrities.
i was waiting for an elevator at my grandfather's condo several years ago, and when the door opened, dave dickenson (BC Lions CFL quarterback, and a pretty well known guy in the area) was standing alone inside. i couldn't figure it out who it was for a second, but as i was starring at his familiar face, i realized who he was, at which point he said 'you going up?' of course, as i was thinking of who it was, i kinda zoned out and just stood there like an idiot.
after, as i walked out when my floor came along, i said 'go lions' and he chuckled. cute.
Hahahha dude youre from CT.. how did you meet him?? Plus youre pretttty young
thats sick if youre not lying though
Nick Martini asked what my name was so I said Owen... he couldnt understand what i said and he kept asking if I said other names
eventually Simon Dumont who was with him told him ITS OWEN! i didnt know if i was talking weirdly or if he just didnt understand but it was awkward
not me, but my friend was at dumont cup, hit the first jump doing cork 7, hit the nuckle, and fell.
wallisch was right behind him, and couldnt hit the jump haha
when i was at the 2008 masters i had some raunchy, like really really raunchy farts. it was insanely humid this one morning and absolutely no wind, so they were just hanging there.. anyway, was walking toward the first tee and i ripped a monster in front of this golf cart that was moving through the crowd. it was then i had realized that i just cropdusted tiger woods, who was sitting shotty in the cart... looked back and he was holding his nose, along with 15 other people.
They arent famous.Sure its nice that a couple thousand 15 year olds know who Tom Wallisch is but in 10 years you will have no idea who he is. Also fame isn't one website dedicated to a small sport. Fame is David Beckham, Derek Jeter, Brad Pitt, and the like not Tom Wallisch, Elias Ambuhl, or Bobby Brown. If you saw Mike Nick, Skogen, Evan Raps, Boyd Easly, or an original skier from 10 years ago you'd have no idea who they were.
