Shaq then asks me if he could borrow a pen and some paper. I thought he wanted the cute blonde's (sitting next to me) digits. 10 minutes into class, People Magazine photographer shows up to shoot a photo spread of Shaq "hard at work in class".

My best was meeting Jerry Stovall. I haven't had a bad experience.

one and only



another good: Met Todd Walker at a game (after he was long gone from LSU). I was loaded. I proceeded to tell him how dumb the Twins were for not moving him up to the bigs quicker. Was told I was dropping fbombs on the Twins left and right....also told Walker just laughed his arse off the whole time

My worst- Warren Morris. Went to the Braves-Pirates game at turner field in 99 or 2000. Was there during BP. Had on my LSU cap and had the baseball media guide "program of the decade". I'm not an autograph hound, but I thought it would be so cool to get The biggest LSU baseball hero to sign the guide. He walks past me on 3 different occasions. I was at the rear of the dugout, he was at the front. "Hey, Warren! Would you mind signing for me?" Nothing. Wouldnt even make eye contact. On his 4th pass, I called him a "below average, middle infielder that was still living off if Omaha."

watched one of my best friends beat the dog shite out of Thomas Dunson in tigerland. dunson thought he would push my buddy out of the way to get into Dublins. my buddy dropped him with a left. dunson gets up... dropped again. i told my buddy lets go and we made our way to the car. i look up and dunson is beating on the hood. dude gets outta car and beats his arse for a third time. dunson was biting him to get him to let go of him. my friend was half the size of TD too. just a mean mofo.

saw j jefferson in sammy's a few years back. had my 6yo nephew with me and thought it'd be nice if they got a pic together. jj was rude as shite acted like this was some huge inconvenience for him. kid was happy but jj was total prick.

Doesn't surprise me about Dunson. I wouldn't expect him to be able to COVER his own face.

Sometime back in 04 or 05 maybe, me and a couple friends were walking thru the place de plantier apt complex and we happened upon Jessie Daniels and his cousin. They asked us if we wanted a beer and we said yes and shot the bull with them for a while and drank their beer. After a while we get on the topic of jujistu and submission holds and my buddy told jessie he could put jessie to sleep. Jessie had one arm in a cast at that time so my buddy said he would put one arm behind his back. So Jessie put him to sleep rather quickly. After that we continued drinking and jessie and his cousin asked us if we wanted to ride the white stallion with them. We looked at eachother like WTF? So they show us and its a toilet seat that jessie and his cousin were "riding" down the stairs of their apartment on. Needless to say they strange dudes, but very kind. I asked Jessie about Laron Landry, and he said without a doubt Laron is the dumbest person on the planet. he said "we got all these blitzes and play calls and coach just tells Laron to run to the ball". He shared a story about Laron delivering a bone crunching hit on buster davis while davis was attempting to catch a ball over the middle in practice, but davis was wearing a green no-contact jersey. LOL

havent had a bad experience meeting a former or current LSU athlete.

Best- shook Shaq's hand and he held me when I was a baby. Parents said he was a super nice guy.
-had a class with chase clement, really nice guy as well, went out of his way to talk to me...he's really Cajun/country though, like Boudreaux and thibodeaux.

Worst- Trindon Holliday. Saw him at the mall, dude was a complete prick, acted like we were inconveniencing him just by shaking his hand.

Alex Farrer, now that guy knows how to party. Not to mention the flock of girls that were involved.

worst: walking in on Colt David fricking my GF

saw him out a few months later and he bought me a beer so that was nice of him I guess

that giant sucking sound you just heard was your e-Cred going down the drain.

I gave Dalton Hilliard a lift to his home in Destrahan and he invited me in for a drink.

Yep! Hmmm, I'm trying to remember who else was there at the time that wanted to do med school. You speak Cajun French?

My 8th grade football team came up to play U High's squad. Before the game, we got to watch LSU Practice and meet the players. Hodson, Andolsek, Wendell Davis, etc... Dave Browndyke gave me a wristband.

Worst: Played golf with Mickey Guidry. On one green, his ball was in the line of my putt. I stood there for a seemingly long and awkward amount of time but he never would mark his ball. Finally, I walked up and did it for him. Guess he plays the stymie rule? He was nice other than that.
