Excluding a few locals probably not well known,
- Murray Walker

Through marshalling at golf tournaments at Melbourne I've met a lot of touring professionals. Tiger was all of 21 when I met him - nice guy.

I've met quite a lot of the local touring car crowd - I used to work for a company that was the title sponsor for a touring car team, so would head up and help out anytime there was an event on within a 3 hour drive of home.
 
The only celeb i met well not met but like seen really close to was Terry Porter and Jerry Rice from the raiders they were signing autographs and there was a 2hour line it was at the mall in la [los angeles]

Sometimes, but most of the time it's on the English Motorsport coverage on Sky.
 
I've met ex Colin Macrae co-driver Nicky Grist at the playstaion experience Earls court ... got is autograph and a photo of me with him , he was the only famous person there... well apart from that guy that made Metal Gear Solid - Hideo K??? but we couldn't find him for a pic :irked:
 
Sorry if I'm breaking forum etiquette here by digging up an old thread, but I didn't want to start a new one, but wanted to tell the world that I met (well, nearly) my dream woman the other day... :drool:

Sorry again, but no-one outside of Britain (and possibly Malta) will know who the flippin' heck she is, but for those of you in the UK, you may know the girl in the Yakult advert, the one where the geeky scientist bloke is chatting to her about 'friendly bacteria'? She is also commonly known as 'ADVERT GIRL', since she was in a deodorant advert, a Ford Focus advert, and a few others too... her name is Cordelia Bugeja, and I was in a market in London with a lady friend ( :sly: ) and she was right there infront of me... bad timing or what?? I wouldn't have approached her anyway (since that would be creepy :trouble: ), but I basked in her unbridled gorgeousity for an all too brief couple of minutes... for the benefit of anyone who also admires this fine lass, here is a rather fetching picture of her I found... 👍

I let Jim Hall (of Can-Am Chapperal fame) into the toilet que at Goodwood a few years back.

.....its not like i hang around toilets or anything, they don't call me George Michael.

No, it's cool. We prefer relevant reincarnation to creating duplicates.

She's cute, but the "Friendly Bacteria" ads are cringeworthy.
 
I met Giselle Bundchen the supermodel at the Victoria Secret flagship store in New York. I was helping her shop for a bra. Ohhh yummy :P
 
:drool: ... Thanks Aphrodite... I was about to post saying that I met Paul Hogan from Crocodile Dundee, but you've stolen my thunder somewhat :dopey: Dare I ask, but how the flamin' hell did you manage that?...
 
Mainly sportspeople since my dad is Assistant Manager at a Leisure Centre so they do lots of events.
