Meeting Famous People

Andrew Flintoff ran accross the pitch at the end of a days play at Hove (we were on playing on the pitch) and we got a pic with him.

Bobby Zamora (at Brighton) - Walking through the car park underneath Brighton City Mall, my mate literally walked into him, again got a pic and had a chat with him whilst he waited for his pickup.
 
I met Ganguly, his brother, his wife, and his daughter at a restaurant named after him on a Christmas day two years back.

I met ganguly, sehwag and harbhajan during the 03/04 australia tour. Tendulkar gave my sister a hug as he was coming off his net session in the Allan Border Field, he was carrying his bats so he couldnt give a autograph so he just gave her a hug. lucky sis :mad:
 
About 20+ of the Vic players over the last 5 years, as well as a few internationals. Spoke to Adam Gilchrist at this thing in Fed square, and got autographs of the rest of the team.

And I've met most of the Melbourne FC players, at team training sessions and stuff.

Plus, The Living End when they did a concert in the suburb where my school is, where they come from :)

They didn't go to my school though.

Ray Parlour walked past me and my uncle outside Manchester Picadilly station, he saw us and dived in a taxi :p
 
Probably haven't heard of most of these people, but here goes:

Raghav
Jaz Dhami
Rihsi Rich
Juggy D
Mumzy Stranger
Jay Sean (Before he was famous)
Ustad Zakir Hussain
Ustad Tari Khan
Sania Mirza
Wasim Akram
Sunil Gavaskar

I've been about 10 metres away from the whole Indian Cricket Team at the T20 World Cup. So technically I was breathing the same air as them and it could be regarded as meeting them. ;):p
 
No offense but my experience was the best:p I fully played a game of BYC with pretty much the whole Sri Lankan cricket team (except a couple of the snobs)... beat that :D
 
I only meet Scott Styris in Nottingham town when I was going to Collage.
I spoke with him and then he give me his autograph :)...I think he was with his wife, Girlfriend or Sister...Don't know but she wanted to go Mcdonalds or something lol

On the pitch, literally? I'm sure the stewards loved that.

Met most of the Sussex squad, Mushie, Robbo, worked with (kinda) Tony Cottey. Served drinks to a few of the Aussie players (Ponting, M Hussey, Clarke and Gilly iirc). Met various other cricketers last summer.

Wow! can i have your autograph please?!


:p
 
I met the whole Sri Lanka team when they played a test in Dunedin a couple of years ago.
There bus was late and they asked me and my mate if we wanted to play a fun game of cricket while they waited... One of the best experiences of my life, all really nice and hilarious guys! Vaas, Malinga and Murilitharan were crack up. :p

Yeah, the Sirils are super nice. A lot nicer than the Indian players, anyway.
 
Forgot to mention I have run into Lance Armstrong on numerous occasions. He lives and trains in Austin.
