Saw BW too as I boarded a flight in Denver that the previous flight was the Clipper's charter plane and they were just getting off..seemed like a nice guy as I said hi and he nodded in reply...
About 3 years ago, I saw the entire Giudice family at Newark. They were on my flight from Ft. Myers to Newark and I spent about 15 minutes standing next to them at baggage claim. They had at least 3 bags each and most were Louis Vuitton bags. Teresa has big ol' titties and the little girl was the ugliest human being I've ever seen. Joe was just pacing around talking on the phone, typical NJ meathead look.
I saw him back when MJ was playing for the Wizards. The guy can barely walk because of his numerous leg surgeries. But he was the last one at baggage claim with a gofer helping him. I went up and asked him if he was in DC to see Jordan.
He said, "I'm not here to see Vernon Jordan (political advisor to Bill Clinton at the time); I'm here to see a man of SUB-stance, I'm here to see MI-chael JOR-dan!"
Was on a plane with Ali in 1975 and he shadow boxed with me in the terminal (I was 9 years old).

Don't have a lot that I can recall. But at Phoenix airport after Eagles/Cardinals '12 I sat down next to the Seattle Storm who were returning from a game against the Mercury. Immediately recognized Sue Bird and started chatting her up (we were 1 year apart in college so she was on my TV/Sportscenter) year round. I guess I asked detailed enough questions that the rookies and younger players on the team were like daaaaaamn this boy knows a lot about women's basketball.
Bought her a couple drinks, became Facebook friends, and had my buddy sitting next to me completely questioning my sexuality. She was really cool and funny as hell.

1. I love that story. What was your old handle?
2. Get some new material, you hack.
Fat Pinone, but received a lifetime ban for something or other. Didn't post for a while (six months or so) but then finally broke down and re-registered.
That's what makes this story even better. Now when we're standing around parties we can tell the story about our INET friend who finger-blasted MBB on a cruise ship, resulting in her to switch teams. Guy is a legend.

Good, but not currently sporting the hardwood flooring look, which I am okay with.
I'd like to think that I played a small part in it even though she didn't switch teams until a couple decades later.
No. It was before we got engaged but we were sort of dating so it is better that she doesn't know. Many of my friends know though (some of whom were with me on the cruise).
The reality is that the story, while kind of funny and random, is actually very lame. It was a horrible experience sexually as she was a drunken, obnoxious slob who smelled like cigarettes. I don't remember much but I do remember trying to get her to blow me and she wouldn't.
Lizzy, I don't have a pic but am happy to report that she was about 20 years younger when my fingers disappeared than she was in the picture BAC posted.
