How many celebrities have you met?

Kid Rock, 2008. Indianapolis Motor Speedway Carb Day. Became friends with Lincoln Park's Manager, who managed Bobby (Kid Rock) and was just starting to manage him again. Got to hang out with Kid on his tour bus afterwards. He was pretty cool and he only drinks Peroni 




2006 Indianapolis 500 on the grid with Patrick Dempsey


I think this was the 2005 Indianapolis 500. Russell was there because my buddy's car had Heartland Film Festival Sponsorship and Russell was  involved with it. He was really nice.

Side comment: Now that I see what you really look like, your avatar is a spitting image.

I watched my friend haggle with Nikolai Volkoff for almost 5 minutes over the price of an autographed 8x10.

Wow..haven't heard that name in a couple decades!  I remember watching Nikolai and the Iron Sheik wrestling the likes of Andre the Giant, Hulk Hogan, the British Bulldogs, etc. on Saturday afternoons.

I stood next to Jeff ward at cal expo once. He was talking with someone else about the track. It was then that I realized theses super stars are just like everybody else.




I also went to High school and hung out with John Paul Mitchel's Son. He wrecked alot of cars...

Or lived to tell about it ?

Austin gym in Dallas. I think it was 94-95 ish. He was working out on the bench next to me. I didn't want to approach him for fear of the fist in his beard. He nodded at me. You know that kinda "What's up" nod.

I started thinking about this and I actually have met some celebs.


When I was a kid they blew up a house about 10 miles down the road for an episode of Walker: Texas Ranger. I got to meet Chuck Norris...but I didn't say anything, just shook his hand.

Couple years ago we were in the in-field saturday night at Texas motor speedway on a NASCAR weekend (my father in law's company sponsors Richard Childress Racing team). They were cooking some BBQ and a few drivers were coming in an out. I met RC, and was chatting with a guy about motorcycles...he had people walking up and shaking his hand randomly and taking pictures. Turns out it was Carl Edwards...a NASCAR driver.

Oh...and Eddie Hill lived where we just moved from. I'd see him around town sometimes in his Ariel Atom. Used to try to get him to race me on my Duc

My wife bartended in Daytona for a few years.

She met a shit ton of NASCAR driver's.

The best was the night before the Daytona 500 about 4-5 years ago, this one guy was wearing a budweiser hat and was getting free bud's because he had a comp card.

He was hitting on her, throwing 100$ tip every beer, etc.

Ended up giving her his number on a napkin and said to call later.

She smiled and said "sure"

turns out it was Dale Jr.

She had no idea nor did she care; that napkin got thrown away as soon as his back was to her.

The more appropriate honor would be how many celebrities have met me?  Cause I'm cool like that.
