Nothing comes to mind. Funny story though. My best friends brother got Christopher Lloyd’s cell number from someone. He didn’t believe it. Called him. fricking doc answered. They talked for a few minutes.

My dad was in outdoor media so as a kid I regularly tagged along. He interviewed The Nuge in his Hyatt room around the time we formed Damn Yankees. No shite the guy sleeps with a loaded revolver on his nightstand which would make Dirty Harry envious. My eyes almost bugged out of their sockets. His son is my age and the coolest thing was him thinking enough to have room service deliver me a Coke before the interview. Related people through the years...Ollie North, Dana Loesch, SE Cupp, David Clarke, Oz (Benghazi), and Wayne LaPierre. At the sports trade show Sheryl Swoopes, Lindros, Len Dawson, Singletary, and as part of the press conference for the 75th NFL season I was outside the room and got to hear some shite talking between Sayers and Nitsheke.

Autograph shows are numerous. Urlacher, several times Butkus & Singletary, Pete Rose (prick), Johnny Bench, Hester, The Fridge, McMahon, and Montana-Clark. The best though was one specific half hour which consisted of meeting first Bob Feller then Jim Brown and finally Gordie Howe.

The Mighty Mick

Met Mickey Mantle, Moose Skowron and Don Larsen at a baseball card show in Metairie about 30 years ago. Had to pay $17 for his autograph.

Also met Hank Aaron in the Astrodome before a game when my team attended a game and we got autographs during batting practice.

Had a beer with Mick Jagger at the bar in the Martinique airport. We were both flying back to NY on the same plane in 1982. Linda Ronstadt at the Marriott in Blacksburg, VA. Sold ice cream to Johnny Unitas when I worked for Good Humor during the summer after high school.

I partied with Cuba Gooding Jr. and his stunt double one night at Happy's in downtown Baton Rouge about 9-10 years ago. All I really can remember from it was randomly choosing Brad Paisley - Alcohol on the jukebox, and they knew every word
