Post a photo/tell a story of when you met a professional athlete

i'll go first, it's a horrible quality photo BUT this was one of the best nights of my life lol. went to UFC 265 in houston for my birthday last year. my bf upgraded us to first row seats, and we became friends with a girl who's boyfriend worked the ring so after the fight they got us into the ring and everything. was honestly so dope. we got to lay in the octagon (yes in all of their blood and sweat lmao). when i got out of the cage, i saw DC (Daniel Cormier) come by -- he was commentating the fights that night -- so of course i had to say hi. was a quick snap but he was a nice dude

I don’t have any real pics of meeting celebs. Usually don’t like to bother known people like that in public. Just a personal thing, but when I was a shorty. I went to Coral Springs Mall in Broward County & met Dan Marino & got his autograph. Had to wait in line type deal as he was doing pic & signings.

I ran into Greg Oden at a festival 10 years ago lol. He had cemented his bust status by then. I’m sure that’s the reason he doesn’t look pleased here lol

I have met several. Mostly crossing paths with former players at card shows.

Did spend two hours playing poker with Jose Canseco in Las Vegas. He was cool, but the reputation of him being edgy is accurate. I was guarded in my questions.

Basically, just very complimentary so that he couldn't help but like me:
"How's your brother doing?"
"Sorry man, heard your former teammate (Bob Welch) just passed."
"You were good. You must been right at or just short of 500 home runs."

He knew his exact HR total. "I hit 462 home runs."

Cool photo. I think Oden falls into the category of MANY big men. Human body was not designed to be 7'0".

When you get to be that big, the health issues are unavoidable. So many big-men have bad feet and bad backs. Just didn't work out.

Great point Chucky sadly I agree with you.

Derrick Brooks
Warrick Dunn
Mike Alstott
Tracy McGrady
Chris Carter

Tampa Bay Bandits, Bucs, and Chargers RB Gary Anderson at his own house

He had a huge basketball court in his back yard with #40 on both ends

He still has the best dive into the endzone
