ha... k0na just proved a point I've said many a times to people who go to vegas..
... goto to the Bellagio... chances are you'll see and oddly enough... hang out w/someone famous for at least a moment.
About four years ago I was up in vegas on a press check... one of the pressmen (of all people) had a connection to some private party in one of the Bellagio clubs... and he said all I need to do is go up to the front and say my name and I was in.
So I showed up in a pair of nasty black chucks, jeans and a t-shirt... there were about 200+ people dressed slick and waiting in line to get in...
... I moved to the front in my nasty garb and gave them my name...... the bouncer laughed and told me to 'beat it'...literally!!...
... then... the club door opened - this SUPER-HOT lady comes out w/a clipboard checking for 'names on the list waiting in line'...
... just like that... me and my filthy attire were cutting in line and giving Bouncer Bradley a dirty look!!
... so I get inside... it's a private party actually in the VIP area... and that was were I was led too...
... when I got to the back of the club to the private bar... there was Jessie James and Kid Rock and it was their party...
... and both were in jeans, black chucks and nasty t-shirts.
:D
... now... granted... kid-rock sux assDong... and JesseJames is a bit of a redneck himself (super talented though)... but damnit...I GOT In!! neener neener!!!

yeah madirish. that's david draiman of the band disturbed.
that's why i had no idea who he was either. he was cool as hell though. very personable.

I met the Idomo guy last month. But I guess he's not famous outside of the amish furniture community.

I've only met somewhat popular musicians, I just realized.
Festivals are always good for that sort of thing, unless there are huge fangirls / fanboys. When I met Metric the lead singer was obviously trying to get away from the fanboys/girls and stayed behind some trees near a trailer until the crowd dispersed. I met a few of the band members (who were just having a smoke), and then the whole band came out to sign autographs and stuff.
One of the best experiences of my life, although I didn't know what the say when I met them. Basically didn't have anything to say, to be honest, haha.

pony that friggin rocks!
point5 got me and my boys into light (i think that's the name of it. maybe ice?!?) one night cause he could get us on the list.
after about an hour 2 of us are standing down on the dance floor looking for the other two in our party. i hear 'DOUGGIE' and i turn around and look up and the two guys are in the vip section each holding a bottle of jack just WASTED.
i start to laugh then i see these two giant hands grab their shoulders and pull them away from the ledge. a few seconds later they're being 'escorted' (meaning thrown he hell out) the back door of the club. hahaha!
i guess when the bouncer left his post by the vip door to take a piss they jumped over the rope and went up to the private party and helped themselves to all the free booze they could drink and offended more than one of the ladies up there. good times.
jaline my wife goes out with her friends now and again to a club/bar downtown and she's ran into vince vaugn, joey and the tall dark haired dude from friends, dennis rodman and the singer of pearl jam (i'm having a brain fart, i can't think of his name) and a bunch of others.
when we go downtown, or i go downtown with my buddies i'm just not paying attention to anyone in the club.

I was on the soundtrack of Mr. Fishburne's "Once in the Life" film. :)
He is a very cool lad.

Most times when I met celebrities I quickly leave the bar, casino, or party I am at ... as I assume any girl that was into me is going to be trying their best to throw themselves at them, haha.
I met Dave Chappelle a few times though (before and after the show), he is the fucking man.

Heath Miller (Tight End, Steelers) once told this girl I know that he would pay her $6K if they had sex and she didn’t have an orgasm.
Which I found funny, because I wouldn’t fuck her for 60K, orgasm or no orgasm.

speaking of celebs.
i've been mistaken twice for a celebrity.
first time: george eads (when his head was shaved)
i was really drunk walking through mgm with my sunglasses on and head shaved. (long time ago). a bunch of ladies waiting to get into 54 ran over thinking i was him. they talked me into joining them at 54 and we got into vip. they bought me drinks for the longest time and i played it off so well i was him. it was probably a good thing i was a big fan of csi. even the bouncers thought i was him. they were like 'yo g, good to see you again man'. it was crazy. but i ended up leaving cause people started taking pictures and i didn't know if george had a girlfriend or wife or anything and i would have felt bad if any stories got out. i left.
second time: rob mackowiak (look it up)
on the south side after a sox game while i was wearing a sox cap. it's happened 4 times now and it's funny, i look nothing like rob. but anyways, drunk sox fans think i'm him and have bought me round after round whle asking me 'yo man, do you think you're going to be playing tomorrow?' and shit. it's funny. this might have something to do with the company i was with though at the time. it's crazy.
