Claim to lame

Lockstep

This might have been done before but I found no mention of it in the search buttons.

Allrighty, we all have our terrible claim to fames. We walked past some C-list celebrity or our dog bit some actor on the chin. Who here can come up with the most piss-poor claim to fame?

I'll start the ball rolling, I went out with a girl who went to a house party at Emma Watson's and Emma Watson's little brother tried to get her into bed. The cheeky little scamp

Also, I saw the guy who plays Bob in Fair City in a hotel in Dublin.

I was working in Tesco a few years ago and some guy came in that looked exactly like Chris Pontius (the guy from jack ass). I walked by him and said "Jaysus man, you're the spit of Chris Pontius". I found out later that day that it actually was him.

The brother of one of the lads I went to school with was the knitting champion of Ireland and even knitted on a weekend kids tv show on rte 2 (scratch Saturday?). Another friend of mine was on that computer games tv show that was on years ago. He did really badly at sonic.

I sold Gerry Adams a shirt a long time ago.

He has a really skinny neck, and much to my amusement he paid in English pounds!

I sold Rodrigo Y Gabriella their mobile phones. She is insanely hot. They have immense roaming charges, as I recall.

I also had a discussion with Des Bishop about people giving him prank calls on his mobile.

I'd be fired now if I still worked there

OOOOh, we gave Victoria Smurfit a loan of a charger as well. Total MILF.

I once got scolded by my boss when I worked in Sp*ctra Photo because I held Keith Duffy's £20 up to the light to see was it fake

Are you sure it wasn't northern pounds each country has it's own version and northern pounds are useless in the rest of the kingdom. You shouldn't have accepted them.

I once checked out Martin King's grocery shopping.

I served him several times in the Spar I used to work in. Nice chap. He always used to buy birthday cards.

Also, that guy who was in batchelors walk came in a few times. Ya know, the big guy. I don't know his name.

I once got presented some Irish award (when I was in primary school and actually understood the bloody language) by Miley from Glenroe. The show was still going then. He sat in the bar smoking and drinking all evening and was plastered by the end of it.

I nearly ran into Gabriella recently in Dublin, and I mean literally. She was going one way and I was going the opposite direction and I just missed knocking her over. :eek: Oops!

During the run up to the last election I nearly ran over Mary Harney. She was canvassing and she stopped outside my driveway to talk to somebody. I wasn't really looking as I backed my car out and she had to jump out of the way.

YOur very lucky, she would've left a huge dent in your car.

Jack Charlton went to my uncle's shop to buy a loaf of bread.

Worst claim to lame story. I refused to comp a drink for Daniel O'Donnell's sister (Margo, seemingly she sings too). She actually used the line 'don't you know who i am'.

Margo's his mother, if you believe half the scurrilous rumours you hear
