Funny celebrity story / connection

[WildChild96]

I was in 18 ESPN commercials and a centerfold of SI in 96. Harry Dean Stanton played the father in the commercials.

You're on IMDb, too. How cool is that?!?! And my connection to fame is that my aunt in California is 3rd or 4th cousins with Sandra Bernhard.

My connection to fame isn't exactly funny/strange but my uncle is American actor John Larroquette. He is married to my mum's sister. It's kind of cool having him as an uncle, he sent me a signed copy of The 5 C's Of Cinematography for my birthday

Cool! Loved him on Boston Legal.

My dad was a caterer for many many movies. He worked in San Diego.

One day, he's making food in the catering truck, and in walks Johhny Cash. My dad still remembers what he ordered. Over easy on sourdough with cheese (or something along those lines). After the shooting was over, a man in a suit walked up to the truck and said, Mr. Cash liked your sandwich so much, he wants another.

My dad also met Mr. Trump in a bar in New York (my father was in a NY band), and supposedly, Trump flirted with all the younger women. He shook his hand.

He has many other stories, around 10 or more, haha. Those are the most memorable.

The place I went to for years as a kid to buy comics, candy, and magazine was run by the wife of baseball great Bobby Bonds and mother to Barry Bonds. I got Bobby Bonds autograph on the back of thier business cards.

The same place used to have blues legend John Lee Hooker stop in once in a while too, but I never got his autograph. He used to tell me, "Next time son, next time." I had no idea he was illiterate and could hardly write his name.

For years I went there not even recognizing the various baseball players, musicians, and other famous friends of the owner who used to go there.

I miss that smoke shop.....

Before I was born, my Mum lived next to Warwick Davis. When she used to lock herself out of the house, Warwick would climb in through the window and let her in! XD Also, his wife used to babysit me, and when we saw Warwick and his family at the cinema a couple of years ago he looked up at me and said "You've really grown!"
They're really nice people
