I've had the pleasure of meeting dozens of sports celebs in my lifetime thus far. When I was 15 one of my first job's was working for the Chargers trainning camp, where we would feed them during their practices. This was back when Seau & Rodney Harrison was on the team and right as they signed LT. When I was about 12 I was given the opportunity to be the outfield ball boy for a celeb allstar homerun derby. Met alot cool cats there as well like Barry Bonds, lou brock, etc. No pictures but I have a few autographs [QUOTE=VIPanda;431428]Dwayne Wade, and Kobe Bryant[/QUOTE] DOPE!

Jamal is from here too. Marvin is pretty avg. but come on, his half court shot was pretty pimp :biggthumpup:
Jamaal Crawford when he was on the knicks. He was real cool. I told him stop making white defenders fall on cross overs. He gave me an autograph. Chamequa Holslaw. Wouldnt mention a female but one of the best girls ever at her sport. She went to my High school Christ the King and was there giving a speech. Got her autograph and chatted for a few seconds after. No ego from her Charles Barkley was a dick. Seen him outside a hotel. Seemed like he was pissed off at someone but he always has that face on so I cant tell. Seen a bunch of basketball and football players in clubs but I didnt say anything to them so that doesnt really count. One of my best stories ever (that I had a witness on this forum there with me "east coast to the west coast") was when I was driving the PresiBent fresh out the shop in Manhatten. For those that don't know the city, almost every street is a huge one way. I'm on the left lane at a light when I seen a white Rolls Royce Drophead coupe on white 28's pumping gas at one of the only gas stations in the city which was all the way to the right and had a steep driveway. At the time, you had to pay a $200,000 markup on top of the $500,000 asking price to get it. First thought (judging by the bling) and the ballerness of the car "this has to be 50 cent." So what do I do, I blow the red light going 5mph to cut all the way to the right to get in that gas station. People are honking but I knew it would be worth the story getting to meet 50. I get in the gas station and he gets out of the car with his jaw to the ground like I'm the star. It wasn't 50 but it was Zach Randolph allstar on the Grizzlies but at the time, Knick player. He was like "Is that a new Bentley? What is that? How much you want for it." Til this day I regret saying "its not for sale." He makes 20mil a year the car would be chump change to him. While hes checking out my car, I'm in awe at his. He had every option including the fiber optic star ceiling. I asked him what he was doing he replied "waiting for some piff from uptown." LOL. He was mad cool, you would never know he had the type of money he had. He asked me if I could build him an old school I said no problem (even though I never done one but with his budget I could figure it out lol). That was the day I decided to get in the car business. The story don't end there. So I tell some friends on a local forum and naturally people will always raise eye brows if you they know you like that. Then in a newspaper the headlines read "New York Knick Forward Zach Randolph found in a white Rolls Royce with Marijuana." Just like I explained it and there were no pics of his car out on the net at the time. The doubter pointed it out to me too which made it funny. So then the next week guess what happens? Zach Randolph has been traded to the Clippers. NOOOOOOOOOOO now I can never build his cars lol. Next day as I am by a club with my other boy, I get high beamed for being double parked. WTF go around me. I look back and its a Phantom. I will move for a big boy like that lol so I put it in drive and go down the block. So I am driving and he is following me and still high beaming. I pull over and its Tyler Perry. He wanted to know about the car and if I had a business card. My boy was like I will never doubt any of your stories. I miss the Presibent, it was so unreal being on the streets with it
^ Should have traded him cars!! Hehehehe Closest I ever got, When I was 6 I saw Jake "The Snake" Roberts at the airport.
Agi, I dont doubt it at all. They are people into cars just like you and I. And they recognize when they see something crazy.

Ahahahaha yeah I know right Pancakes? Jeremy Tyler was playing at the SDSU ARC, played with him. It was like Lob city in SD
my neighbor directly above me is AJ Delagarza, a starter for the LA Galaxy. Him and his wife are super cool, and they're also from MD and they both went to MD where my pop's teaches. I fixed his beach cruiser for him lol.
back when wcw was big stood next to hogan said hi lmao. apparently was on the same ride as his kids at the fair. doesnt really count as sport but car related in general, talk to Wayne Carini last years Concours.
Met Mike Vallely and Elissa Steamer pro skateboarders and got their autographs. Do celebrities count?? I got to meet and get the autographs of all the ORIGINAL Power Rangers including the green ranger before he became the white ranger when I was a kid lol During 08' BET awards I was a security guard and got to check Neyo's belongings before entering the gates. Saw Lil Wayne's tour bus get surrounded by cops and a bunch of other stars entering and leaving the back stage.
Oh yea I shook Chuck Norris's hand in 06' when he came to visit us troops in Iraq! haha
i am surprised you can still use your hand.

He still hasnt returned my hand.

Far too many to count, I partied with Tiger at school since he was my same class and I saw him in the training room with all of the the other athletes. Then I played a decade of Pro baseball all the way up to AAA before I got hurt. Also have connections to Hollywood as my roommates dad started Mandalay and Fred Savage was a frat brother...... Me way back in the day at the start of my pro career [IMG]http://www.baseball-reference.com/bpv/images/thumb/0/02/JoeKilburg.jpg/135px-JoeKilburg.jpg[/IMG] ME on Signing Day with my Aunt on Jacob's Field [IMG]http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/301796_899421784373_219527_40620440_1458142_n.jpg[/IMG]

NFL players are a lot shorter/smaller than I thought, i ran into Pac man Jones and Hines Ward on separate occasions in Atlanta.....and both where a lot smaller than I thought they would be
So was birdman and lil wayne. like 5'7" or around there haha. Queen latifa tho is a huuuuge woman. Maybe was the heels but she was really tall
Burgy has a NAME!! and its JOE!
Haha! Man those are some old pics of me too....at least I didn't bust out the College World Series pics.:runcoold:

oh, shit! Even lil wayne is hella young there too. is the dude at the very top BG? [IMG]http://i624.photobucket.com/albums/tt330/WUTANGWilly/cec55bac.jpg[/IMG] This dude Trick is like as real street hood as they get. Every time he open his mouth, and he on camera, it just gets dirty dirty!

And hopefully it didn't let you down too much.[/QUOTE] Nah man, you can't live life looking backwards. I was on the prospect list and I had a great life for a decade. Sure, I would have loved the money and the fame, but I know how I stacked up against some of the best in the game. I was an all American in College and I played in 2 CWS. I was one of the very few that actually retired from the game rather than woke up one day and didn't have a job. I could have continued to play but if I did that, I wouldn't have met my wife and be where I am now. I do Real Estate with the number one team in Pinellas county(St Pete-Clearwater Beaches) I only miss the guys and the dumb shit we used to do on and off the field. Me and Ricky at the Atlantic League All Star Game. He was the only one to get more votes than me.

No that dasean bush and me in the red shirt with the desert eagle. Yea these pics are kinda old lol.
oh okay, with the hat low it looked kinda like BG haha. But Joe, that is good. I am glad that it was like that. I had a awesome gym teacher who was on the Blue Jays? been a while now so I am not sure accuracy, but he retired from it cause of knee injury. I think he was a lil pissed about it cause he was now a gym teacher and loved baseball a lot. But it didnt stop him from being a good person. Though, baseball was the main focus on gym day lol

Money Mark use to make the beats for them we are closer he even was in my cousins wedding with us. But they are truly cool ass people no lie.
hahaha thats awesome! Its his persona i like, they just know how to make a lasting impression and a story be told. Even Bun B has a very distinctive voice, its almost like story telling. In fact, he could probably read books to children really well LOL
I tell u what he is very good with kids he's just like I big kid when he's with them.
thats cool. I would love to meet a lot of the people who inspired my life. Hopefully one day I can. And maybe, I can inspire them with my car stuff lol.
