1. When I was 16 I sat and talked with Erwin Dudley at the Portsmouth Invitational Tourney for pro prospects. I remember how adamant he was that he would only play the 4 in the NBA. Didn't work out to well for him. The next year I met The Logo, Jerry West.

2. When I was 14 I came within 6 inches of stepping on Stuart Applebee's ball at Hilton Head. Not sure what the tourney was called at the time. I was walking along looking straight at my toes when I hear "Look out mate". I mumbled an apology and got out of the way in a hurry.

3. I met Randy Orton when I was flying from VA to OKC. Met him at the layover in Dallas. I talked to him while we were boarding. Surprised I was the only one who recognized him. Told me he was scared of flying.

4. When I lived in Hampton, VA. Allen Iverson used to come around a bit. I didn't meet him, but my mom walked up to him to give him my dad's(a pastor)card. She called him Alvin.

5. I built a pool table for David Macklin. He was a DB for Penn St. Was an All-Big Ten player as a junior in 1998, and was drafted in the third round of the 2000 draft.

Side Note: That company I worked for also built the pool that Michael Vick's buddies used as the training pit for his dogs.

6. Couple years ago I worked as a manager at a theater in Bham. WWE was in town and I got to hang out of with Stephen Farrely(Shaemus) and Ted Dibiase Jr when they came to see Thor.

7. Not sure if it counts but I went to college with AD's first cousin. Hung out with him a good bit.
