Met Frank Pollack and Dwight Clark
Met TO at a signing at Town and Country 49er store. He was a rookie or second year player and he was sitting out in the parking lot at a folding table all alone. My wife and I walked up and set a 49er jacket on the table for him to sign and he signed it without even looking up or saying a word. Then a guy walked up with a pizza for him and then he looked up.
Met Bryant Young in a restroom at our church.
Saw Elvis Grbac in a bookstore buying books on serial killers.
I did a job at Ronnie Lotts house when he was adding on a gym and my boss and I were putting mirrors on the wall with a stuff called mastic which is like thick black tar in a can. My boss dropped the mastic scoop onto the brand new light purple and gray carpet and got this mastic on it. He was down on his hands and knees scrubbing with laquer thinner trying to get it off moaning "Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no". I was so stressed I started to laugh so I went out to the truck and Ronnie Lott was walking/limping up to the jobsite. This was the Wednesday after the Monday night game against the Giants and he was all banged up so I tried to stall him asking how long he stayed sore after games etc. Then I asked if he would sign two of his trading cards for me and he said, "pick one", and I said,"just sign your favorite", and he said, "They're both me", and signed them both. My boss aventually came out alive so I guess he got it cleaned up. I'm sure the laquer thinner had to damage and break down the carpet eventually.
Not me but my Father-in-law was walking down the street in SF and saw Joe Namath. He loudly said HEY! BROADWAY JOE"! Joe Namath said "Yeah" and stopped to talk and my father-in-law just kept on walking.
Did we just become best friends?!!!!! Yup!!! Hey I forgot to ask, do you like guacamole?
