I served Richard Harris in a pub in London in 1990. He paid for a pint of guinness with a £50 note, probably cost only about £2.50, and told me to keep the change. What a man.

Also served loads of other mainly b list celebrities who generally were cocks so I couldn't be arsed listing them.

National hero.

Alex Ferguson was an absolute gent (thought he would be a wank8r)

Jimmy White (arsehole)

Buzz Aldrin (sound out and a good laugh)

Wendy James (hmmmmmm)

Michael Hutchence (off his face at the time)

Micheal Cane (brilliant laugh)

plus a few more but to lazy to list them

pickarooney · 04-03-2013 06:06PM

I was hoping it was a subpoena rather than a sub sandwich.

Jarrod · 04-03-2013 06:09PM

I sold Ronnie Delaney a lotto ticket once.

MadsL · 04-03-2013 06:10PM

A waitress in a Prague Irish pub I worked in slammed the door in the face of an American couple as "Sorry, we are closed", manager looks up, goes "Holy ****" runs over, opens the door and says "Good Evening Mr Cruise, Ms Kidman, so sorry about that, do come in".

They were in town filming Mission Impossible, held the wrap party in the pub and left a tip of......

.......nothing. :mad:

greenbicycle · 04-03-2013 06:13PM

Have met/served/talked to lots of minor celebs, again not all really worth listing

Some notable points however:

Sinead O'Connor is even smaller and scruffier in real life than you would think
Kathryn lynch is very arrogant when she doesnt get what she wants
Cian from westlife is really small
BrendanO'Connor is skinner in real life and he is as rude as one would expect
Ryan Tubridy loves haribo jellies
Ray D'Arcy is a lovely man

hollster2 · 04-03-2013 06:13PM

Ryan Tubirty in a chipper he was nice

Wattle · 04-03-2013 06:19PM

What's the best way to serve celebrities? Deep fried? Sauteed? Roasted on a spit? With chips or side salad?

Kerry King, Corey Taylor, The Corminator hahaha, most of the munster team when they were langers drunk, Rob Kearney who was taking the piss out of me for wearing a Munster jersey to an Ireland match in Thomond park. They were all fairly sound! Except Jean De Villiers was avoiding people a lot (wouldn't blame him tbh.)

admiralofthefleet · 04-03-2013 06:30PM

padraig harrington in harolds cross a few years ago, he was a twat

brian cowen in 2004, was very nice

not really a celeb but saw a supposed model who's daddy sung about a woman in red in a pub a while ago. made it my business to turn my chair to her so i was facing away

HowAreWe · 04-03-2013 06:31PM

I'm friends with their first cousin.

He ****ing hates them. Says they act like that at family meals etc.

Martyn1989 · 04-03-2013 06:36PM

One of RTEs newsreaders or weathermen or whatever he is, don't know his name, don't want to.

Danny Dyer in a hotel I was working in Wales, the fact that he's famous didn't stop the fat pig of a manager stealing a few chips before his plate went out. No different from any other customer.

The Trailer Park Boys in the bar I'm currently working in Calgary. Seemed decent enough, then the drink got to them, then the coke got to them, then they went a little weird. Tried to bring all the waitresses to their hotel but none of them would have it. Didn't leave a decent tip considering the amount of free stuff they got.

were you calling in the jury when you saw him?

XxMCRxBabyxX · 04-03-2013 06:45PM

Daniel Day Lewis. He was a regular in a cafe that I worked in. Incredibly nice and you'd barely recognise him or know that he was famous. Just so down to earth.
Was fairly cool holding his credit card too. Imagine the money on that! :-D

efb · 04-03-2013 06:46PM

Justice Hardiman- very nice friendly and polite man

There are certain celebrities that I would spit roast with great enthusiasm.

If you know what I mean

recyclops · 04-03-2013 06:52PM

served ossie ardilles, johnny giles and bill o herlihy when i worked in an offo, o herlihy was in all the time very nice guy

Where To · 04-03-2013 06:57PM

As long as their wallet is open and their orifices are closed I don't give a **** how famous they are.

carlmango11 · 04-03-2013 06:57PM

Took an order off a table in an old job before. Boss runs over and tells me to write VIP on the docket so the chef sees it. Turns out it was Richard Bruton and his cronies; didn't even notice. Guess I'm famous now.

Fletch87 · 04-03-2013 06:59PM

Served Darren Clarke, Padraig Harrington, Paul McGinley & Michael D. Higgins. All were friendly and down to earth.
On a weekend off I managed to miss Eric Cantona and Robbie Fowler who were visiting for some Masters football comp.

upandcumming · 04-03-2013 07:02PM

Kirstie Alley. She was a lady!

Martyn1989 · 04-03-2013 07:06PM

Norman Whiteside got really drunk with some football fans in Wales, at closing time I couldn't get the group out the door because they were too busy listening to him recount his time with United and how the fans 'think they own you'. He looked like he was going to cry. I hate football.

Mint Sauce · 04-03-2013 07:09PM

In various roles and jobs...

Damien Hill (before he won the F1WC)

Mick Hucknall

Daniel O'Donnell

Paul McGrath

and

Steling Moss
