Impossible.



Sounds like Nickelson is a dick.

The Bud Bundy story is priceless.



I forgot one. Once in college, some friends and I were out getting a little loopy and we walk passed this swanky restaraunt. It has windows up next to the sidewalk. Christian Slater and Marissa Tome (sp?) were in town doing some filming and sitting at a table having a quiet dinner. Since we were kind of hammered we started knocking on the window, yelling "Slater! YOU OWE ME MONEY!! " and one guy starts licking the glass. We only bugged em for about five seconds and moved on but it looked like they both thought it was kinda funny.

I was in a bathroom at a Notre Dame football game when George Wendt pulls up to take a leak and my unlce points at the poor guy and says "NORM!" and he runs out. I bet old George doesnt get tired of that.

This one is kind of weak, because the guy isn't really a celebrity, but I met Fred Carter (former NBA player/coach, and ESPN analyst) at a bar around the corner from my house. He was eating dinner with his wife when he came up to the bar to smoke. Ended up talking b-ball with him for about 20 minutes. Really nice guy. Ended up seeing him at the same bar about a week and a half later and he shook my hand and asked how I was.

Nah, she's a pretty average looking brunette with a nicer-than-average body in real life. A girl-nextdoor type. Cute, but not hot.

I go for thin ditzy blondes with medium round who-haas, and there were some of those at the party. I like the ditzy blondes.

Natalie Portman is even more beautiful in person. I ran into her at a restaurant/bar called Sam Hill that was on Lake Travis west of Austin about 6-7 years ago. She was in town filming "Where the Heart Is". We didn't bother her, but I thought she was much prettier in person than in the movies.

Okay, whatever. So I go talk to her, introduce myself, she says her name is Natalie, I tell her I'm Chris, I tell her I go to Nova, we talk about Philly and MA for a minute or two, BS'd, whatever (she was sitting on my fleece on a couch, asked for my fleece back), then her girl friend comes over, so I say I'll talk to her later on. Go back to my buddy, and he's freaking out, saying OMG, you talked to her, what did she say, do you know who she is??? I just said, yeah, her name is Natalie, she's a girl from Harvard, she's cute but there are cuter girls here...

Then he says, did she tell you her last name? I said, uh, no...he said, it's Natalie PORTMAN! I didn't know who that was (not a Star Wars fan), but then he says, you know, the queen from Star Wars!! Then it dawns on me. I still thought there were cuter girls at the party, though.

Funniest thing was, buddy saw her leaving the party, so he drags me over to say good bye, he freaks her out saying "you're Natalie Portman!", but she just looks at me and says "Bye Chris!" The look on his face was priceless.
Best story so far
