Now that I remember it I once saw the fat bloke from Cheers & the Smithwicks ads at Shannon airport. Heh, the line people say when they meet celebrities; "They look bigger on TV" didn't apply to him........the big bastard. :pac:

Kevin from Coronation Street was brought in to open a Statoil petrol station in Castlerea

I was on my lunchbreak so me and a mate went to see him for the buzz and, fùck me, the guy is tiny. He was no bigger than the kids that surrounded him.

I also walked by one of the main actors from Shameless before on Shop street in Galway. Some of the cast were there for some gig in Karma but the day before one of them was wandering about the place with his hoody up.

I once almost knocked down Mark Owen from Take That. To this day I wish I have slid a little further on the cobblestones that night

Saw Ryan Turbridy walkin on the street when I was in the car driving to the RDS. I wanted to show off to me friends so to look cool I threw a ham and cheese roll at him.

Also saw a guy, I believe his name was John, from S-club 7 when I was about 6 in a bar in Portugal and walked up to him to ask for his autograph for me sister. After he gave the autograph he put his hand out for a high five and me being clumsy as fuk, missed his hand and knocked over his drink onto his shirt and trousers

One of my cousins families had a top horse in the late 90's or so and we used to go to the races as kids. One day it came second to Istabraq and JP McManus brought myself and a few others in the group around the winners enclosure to introduce us to Carberry, Swan and a few other jockies and then a few of the rugby internationals too. Sound man.

Duggy747 · 07-01-2011 04:20PM

Actually, in May I'm heading over to Florence to a wedding.

The creator of Runescape is marrying my neighbour and I got invited. The fecker is only 31 and he's worth €150 million!

Time to prepare my sob-story. :pac:

Hate to tell you - you aint related to the Tylers. Someone related to you is related by marriage in a far distant kind of way to someone who is in fact still not related as they are a step dad.

Try again.:)

Its called humour. Sorry you dont get it.

Saw the back of Tony Blair's head once...serious claim to fame.

I worked in San Francisco for a few months in 2000; one of the girls we knew got friendly with a guy from a band called Third Eye Blind. We'd never heard of them, but apparently they were popular enough. Anyway, they invited us to a gig they were doing, it was actually a christmas party for some dot com, in 1999. There was an after gig party for the band. I started chatting to the singers girlfriend as she was on her own and I actually felt a bit sorry for her as she was sober while the singer was all pumped up and fairly well on. Found out three years later it was Charlize Theron.

I've played with a bloke called Sean Cannon, a member of the Dubliners, a few times. Being a huuuuuuge Dubliners fan, every one of those times was just amazing.

I didnt know he was that way inclined!

I saw this lad walking down the street in London. Based solely on that, I've decided to move there.
