Im in the seafood business and spent all last summer with a few reality famous people. Know them all before they were sorta famous. Doing a sorta tour with em we met alot of other famous people along the way. Opened alot of doors. Funny how real famous people thought the "catch" guys were some crazy guys and they were in shock with them.lol



Hung with Rake Yohn for the weekend while back east


Need to find all the pics but I did a week King crab trip on the "Time Bandit" last year. No big deal.

Heading back up to Dutch in late Oct

I met Mario Andretti at the Indy 500 a few years ago. He was standing next to a fence talking with an official. Waited until the official left and kinda snuck in and asked if I could shake his hand.

Had my "Andretti Racing" hat on too <pats self on back>

Said Hi to Jimmy Vasser at the IRL race in Watkins Glen this year. Just walking around the garage area in street clothes. He looked shocked anyone recognized him I think.

I don't know most of the famous people listed so far... as you can tell I watch more racing than anything else

i haven't met many people but...

...saw Chris Tucker at the mall
...walked past Dave Matthews at his concert (we were looking for our seats, walked down a ramp, wound up in the backstage area by accident, walked past him and didnt realize until we passed)
...had lengthy conversations, not just autographs, with several band members at concerts...311, Incubus, Hoobastank, etc.
...Mark Curry (Hangin' with Mr. Cooper) did a speech at my wife's college graduation...nice guy

that's about it.

I met a bunch of senators and I met President Bush (funny guy) about a month ago. Hulk Hogan, and a few other wrestlers, Jennie Finch (USA Olympics softball pitcher) and a couple of the vollyball players.

Not really famous among non Marines but I met the Commandant of the Marine Corps Gen. James Conway, and the SgtMaj of the Marine Corps SgtMaj. Kent.
