When I was eight years old in 1995 a whole bunch of Crows came to my school including Shaun Rehn. I went up to him and asked him to sign my school hat with a texta, which he did. Then he took my texta and started signing a whole bunch of other kids' hats and I never got the texta back.
Press charges
 
Last year was in Lambys Geelong one Saturday night with a few mates drinking, looked over and saw Tom Hawkins on the other side of the bar.

Went back to drinking my bourbon and coke, think I got away with it as my mates were none the wiser about the encounter.
 
Was in Bali a few years back and seen Dustin Martin sitting at a small bar with about 3 local girls. I went up to him politely and said G'day Dusty how are ya? He looked at me and said get the * out of my face you fat prick.

Was in a nightclub in Vegas about 5-6 years ago and happened to run into the Saints boys on footy trip. Real nice blokes who had a few drinks with my group and had a good chin wag. Sam Fisher was real quiet tho, just drank pot glasses of pure Vodka all night, James Gwilt too.

Was in Westfield Geelong sitting on the can doing some fine work when someone jumped into the cubical next to me. Very awkward I find, one of my pet hates trying to do your business in a shopping centre loo with someone next door. Anyway this bloke went to town on the toilet and I couldn't bare to listen any longer. So quickly cleaned up and as I was washing my hands big Tom Hawkins walks out of the cubical. Stands next to me at the sink and simply says "strooth".
 
I saw Bryce Gibbs and Kade Simpson at a cafe in Rathdowne St. as I was walking by. There was a third bloke with them, but I don't know who, because I decided not to do a double take and give them the satisfaction of the knowledge that I had recognised them.

Kade Simpson looks Eye-talian.

I went to law school in the CBD and whenever I went back to the CBD I used to use their nice bathroom facilities. I thought that my HECS repayments entitled me to something.

Anyways, one of these times (which was about 8 years ago) I saw Chris Dawes there. Since I had finished my degree I felt like I should demonstrate my seniority. I ignored him.
 
Dane Swan. Saw him out at crown one night. Played black jack with him 1000 bucks a hand. Downed 3 shots, 3 lines of coke, banged 3 hookers and then flew to the gold coast with him. Proceeded to go on a 5 day bender.

I thought he knew how to party. Boring campaigner.
 
Was in a lift with Scott Cummings at the footy either last year or the year before. He must have saw me debating in my head if it was him or not as he turned his (i assume media) pass around so his face and name was pointed towards me so I could see it in a "yeah its really me I'm a big deal kinda way".
 
I ran into Jake Melksham prior to a game this year. I was heading over to gosch's Paddock prior to the round 4 clash with Freo at the MCG to have a kick as i was bored.

I was with a friend as we we're passing ammi park Melksham came out walking over to the MCG. Gave me the look of 'Oh s**t fans', Said "Hi" with a nod. I said "Hi" back
 
Will Minson buying fish at a market. Did lol when he climbed into a tiny car.


Was it this?

I was at the Alice Springs Casino (yes they have one) and LRT was lined up behind me for the ATM. I stopped to chat to him cos I was half-cut and couldn't have cared less whether he wanted privacy or not. Turned out, I should have just walked away.

He told me all about how he had just finished working in a remote Indigenous camp outside Alice. He gave me in-depth analysis of each days' proceedings, what they ate, the activities they were involved in, etc. After Day 4 and about 15 minutes, he changed the subject to the Grand Final (this was in the first week of October 2009 so obviously he wasn't involved) he asked if I enjoyed the game and who I barracked for. I told him not really and Collingwood. I was hoping he would start at least giving me s**t for being a Collingwood supporter but no, he began naming players and how much respect he had for each one.

In the end I had to tell him that my friends were getting in a minibus so I had to go.

Nice bloke, but one to avoid if possible.

Saw him eating breakfast alone in the Intercontinental Hotel in Adelaide this week. He was talking on his phone. I walked past the window, thought that bloke looks like LRT. I went to work didn't tell anyone till now.

Probably a off topic and a little too exciting for this thready but I was pleasantly surprised by that casino, much better than what I was expecting. The ATM on the other hand is another story, it's often out of order and very rarely prints receipts :(

Can you still wear thongs into the casino there?
