Ever meet a celebrity?

Ric Flair, but who in Charlotte hasn't run into him before.

I forgot to mention him too, but it was kinda awkward because he was coming out of a supreme court building and I was delivering stuff. It was quick and I just got like a minute convo with him. Went kind of like,..

Me: (Notice Ric coming out of building)

Rick: (see's me give him a, 'is that who I think it is' look)

Me: Tell me you're Ric Flair.

Ric: I'm Ric Flair, wooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Me: (Not sure how to react I smile and shake his hand) Love your work man, you're one of my favorites.

Ric: Thank you.

Me: Have a great day. ( I leave because I was really late for a delivery.)

Later on I read he was in some type of legal issues, Not sure if he was getting divorced at the time? Or something of that nature.

I attended several Jimmy V dinners in the 90's and walked the red carpet even though I'm a nobody. But it's a good cause, I donate a good amount of money, I'm retired military and a cancer survivor. My wife brags on me a lot and I get asked about a lot of military stuff I just don't like talking about...but it's kinda weird the celebs treat me like I'm one of them.

I can't even remember half the people I've met, but why do the douche-bags always remain in your memory longer? Former Bills QB Jim Kelly is one of those, Phil Simms is another. Meatloaf is a very genuinely nice guy.

He beat some dude up off of I485 once over some road rage issues. That could have been it.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
