Mine have only been sports.

And the only one that wasn’t just a random meeting and talking for a few seconds was sitting on a plane next to Laron Landry. We just talked about LSU.

Met Martin and Godwin from Duck Dynasty a few years ago at an event in Memphis.
Also met the Nature Boy WOO Ric Flair in an airport back in the early 90s. He was pretty cool and took a picture with me and my wife’s (no pics) grandmother.

Met Shaq when he was with the Magic in Orlando. The team did like a caravan drive around in a bus for places during the Christmas Season as part of a community outreach program. This was foster home I used to volunteer with. Biggest human being I ever saw.

I’ve met a bunch of them. Stallone has star power irl.

Heather Graham is the most beautiful one I’ve interacted with. JLaw wasn’t too hard on the eyes either.

Yes. He is a personal friend of mine also.


Chine Terrebonne.


Chine’s Net Shop

La 1

GoldenMeadow, Louisiana
Chine sewing and talking YouTube.

82 years old. Starts sewing at 5:00 AM and does it for twelve hours.


Y’all ought to go to Golden Meadow and meet him.

I go visit on the day they cook. They used to cook three times a week but two of the cooks have died.

Those old men from Bayou Lafourche can cook up some good stuff. Most have been cooking since they were kids working on boats or going to the camp.

Chine makes my nets. And Gerald the guy sewing with the light colored shirt is helping me rig my boat.

Steven Seagal


Went to his house at 2282 Mandeville Canyon Road in 1995. He lived pretty close to O.J. Me and my Dad were in L.A. doing the Leeza Gibbons daytime talk show and my friend Art Harris was covering O.J. Seagal wanted to meet my Dad.

I have met a ton...just go to some boxing matches.

I have pictures with:


Don King


Ali

Frazer


and Larry Holmes.

I met Anthony Bourdain one night in the Miss Delta. He and his crew were filming an episode of Parts Unknown at a blues dive called Po’Monkeys. The guy was a total jerk. He used his entourage to keep the unwashed from his eminence. Jessica Lange was there that night too but was with another group and did not interact with Bourdain at all. The old black man who owned the place came over to our table and smoked a cigar with us. He didn’t have a kind word to say about Bourdain. You can see me and my buddies in the episode drinking and dancing with some school teachers.

I met Kurt Russel at the Aspen airport once while he was wearing a “I’m not the real Kurt Russel” t-shirt. Gave the play by play but I wasn’t one of the GMT or LNST click so it went unnoticed.

I met Allen West at Slovaceks in West, TX during Covid. He was getting some beef jerky. It was early during pandemic, and I didn’t know how strict they were on face masks so ashamed to admit I was wearing one. I told him my dad and I were big fans and asked if he’d take a pic with me. He said sure, but take that face diaper off first. Never been as excited and ashamed at the same time.

As a child, I met Ken Curtis (Festus from Gunsmoke).at Blackham Coliseum when he was doing the rodeo. Also talked to Michael Landon and called him Little Joe. Asked him if the horse was his and he told me he borrowed it.

Had a long conversation with Tom Lester (Eb from Green Acres). He was good friends with the crew from Beverly Hillbillies. The filmed side by side.

Asked President George Bush a question at the Town Hall.

Heckled candidate Bill Clinton at a rally in Girard Park-Lafayette.
