Mark Tuinei (R.I.P.) at a friend's barbeque in Dallas. The bruddah was nice enough to talk story with me , and I got a photo of me wearing his Super Bowl ring. Coulda put two of my fingers thru that ring.

Said "Hi" to Dennis Alexio--you know, the champion kickboxer who wears a grass skirt in the ring-- a few times at the I Love Country Cafe here in Honolulu. Guy likes to eat healthy food, I guess.

Shook hands with Tony Dorsett at the Pro Bowl. The guy's just a bit taller than I am, and I'm 5'7".

Patrick Ewing during his G-town days. My grade school was next to the university, and I hi-fived him as he was walking down the street. Guy had the biggest smile I'd ever seen. Also, shook hands with Coach Thompson as he walked into a nearby convenience store.

Eric Crouch: Went to HS with him. Super Guy

Grant Wistrom, Christian Peter, Jason Peter, Ahman Green, Tyronne Williams, Steve Warren, Scott Frost, Carlos Polk, Brendan Stai, Zach Wiegert, --any Husker player in the NFL from 1993 to present. Was a student with most of them or met them at parties. I waited on Christian once ate more food than I thought humanly possible.

Chris Klien: American Pie etc. --used to play sand football with him in the summertime. Nice kid.

That hot chic from Silk Stalkings--I did a few shows as an extra. Nice girl.

James Brolin--did a few shows as an extra--nice guy.

Darin Erstad--quiet guy (also classmate)

Dusty Baker--this was back in like 1981 at Dodger Stadium. This was when players used to piss in the public bathrooms. He shook my hand and autographed my souveniers.

If I met any other ones they were probably really forgtabble.
