    Dont get me started. IF you know the right people in LA you know a grip of ppl. Like I talked to Nicholas Cages brother in law...basically the wife's lil bro. That kid is the luckiest world. Bastard.Ive talked to Kobe Bryant and Shaq. My dad knows who the owner of Forever of 21 is. I also know Haley Jo Osman...Eric Morrelli from Santa Claus..hmm talked too many ppl since Downtown has too many celebs.

    I met Lil Jon and the Eastside Boyz backstage after a concert they did here in town. Lil Jon had the pimp chalise he was drinking out of. He was crunk.

    I met Kenan Thompson (Kenan and Kel, SNL) @ the ATL airport

    Jin (from Ruff Ryders and 2F2F)

    Hulk Hogan and his wife

    saw Lil Wayne in the ATL airport but didnt talk to him b/c I couldnt think of anything to say.

    I thought this was funny. My dad actually ate dinner w/ Icecube and Mack 10 a couple years ago. He was eating in a Mexican restaurant and all the tables were full. He was eating all alone at the biggest table in the restaurant, they walked in and he invited them to sit with him. He had no clue who they were but figured something was up with he saw the platinum watches and all the diamonds and whatnot.

    Tom Delonge and Mark Hoppus (from Blink-182) like 7 years ago at Phillips Arena. Ended up getting to the arena at about noon when the show started at 8 pm. Ran into them in the empty parking lot as they were riding around on electric scooters near their tour buses. Ended up getting to go behind stage before the show started, talking to Tom about his guitar rig (I am a guitarist myself) for about an hour.

    It was awesome, I was like 14 at the time too haha. Those guys are funny as hell, almost obnoxious really lol. I had exchanged email addresses and sent about 6 messages back and fourth, then I eventually lost touch a few months later.

    I used to do alot of bowling at Brunswick Lanes in Austell. I helped get Keenan and Kell some lanes when then walked in on a 45-60 minute wait during a busy cosmic bowling night. They were there with some fine girls.

    Met about 4 old school WWF guys, including Scott and Rick Steiner, when I worked at Chuck E. Cheese in Kennesaw (for some reason, the others just don't come to mind right now). Scott (I believe it was his kid's birthday) was like 6'8" and had hands the size of a brick! Hooked his kid up at the ticket counter, because that's what you do when you KNOW you could have your ass handed to you then and there. :P

    Walked up to Lou Ferrigno at LAX about 3 years ago. For those of you who were born after the late eighties, I shook hands with the motherfuckin' Incredible Hulk! On the return flight back to Atlanta, I should have asked him how Bill Bixby was doing (wouldn't have gone well, i'm sure). Hah

    Besides that, my grandmother is a published author. I know, not a celebrity, but it is kinda cool.

    Nights,
    Ryan B.

    Along with Arrington, well over half the Atlanta Chiefs pro soccer team lived in my neighborhood. They taught me all soccer in their backyards.

    Ate lunch with Sammy Sam the Hitman for several months each day. Also ate a couple of times with David Banner.

    On the sets of Boys N Da Hood and a Murphy Lee/JD video shoot.

    I've never met these guys, but I am a direct descendant of the second and sixth Presidents, John Adams and his son, John Quincy Adams.

    I see Bruce Bruce in College Park a lot, you can't miss his big ass Ford pickup dually.. plus we bank at the same place.

    Buff Bagwell - Suprisingly short

    Jamal Anderson, I worked the gate that the Falcons flew out of back in 98 when they went to the Superbowl, I didnt even know who he was at the time since I just moved here from Alaska. He always hung around the gate and talked.. cool guy.

    R Kelly - Saw him at the mall in Douglasville of all places? He says he comes there because its kind of low key.

    Carlos Boozer - Plays for the Utah Jazz. He played for a rival high school when we were in Alaska, very conceited.

    Mario Chalmers - Plays for Kansas and will be in the NBA soon.. he was the kid you push off the basketball court because he was so young but everyone knew he would be pretty good.

    Other than that no huge superstars, I would like to meet Diddy or Jay-Z just to see the kind of energy they give off in person.

    it was a small independently owned sandwich shop and the manager had all the sudden quit and i had worked there the longest and it was onyl 3 of us that worked there during the day including the original manager and when he left since i kenw hwo to do everythign i ran the store thus "managing it" but the only reason why i managed it for a while was because they shop closed down a month and half after he quit so instead of hiring a new manager i just ran the store for a while
