Ha!

Have had many encounters of course.

here are a few from my pre-career days though...and not including the time I waited in line at the car dealership to get Heath Shuler's autograph since I was convinced he was the league's next great QB

Used to run into Patrick Ewing a lot down at Tower Records in DC

Got steamrolled by Shawn Springs in a high school scrimmage

Got dunked on by Exree Hipp in another high school scrimmage

Ran into Mike Tyson at a Pizzeria Uno

Got cut off by Riddick Bowe while driving...then returned the favor

Spoke to Chris Webber on a flight to Miami
