  • Loading the player...
  • I can play my own game, but I live in So Cal so it's somewhat normal around here.  My husband also used to sell pro hockey equipment to the teams so he knows a freakload of hockey players and I've met a few.

    Hockey:
    Luc Robataille

    Sean Avery

    and a few others that I can't remember now

     

    Musicians:
    Mike Ness of Social Distortion (hilarious story there ... he's good friends with a former parent of mine in the preschool ... he came in to pick up one afternoon with the dad and I had no clue who he was ... everyone gave me grief .. he's a super nice guy)

    Tyler Stewart of BareNaked Ladies (we've met the whole band several times but Ty is the one we are most "friends" with)

     

    Baseball Players

    Burt Blyleven (former Pitcher for the Angels and Twins ... grew up with them as family friends)
    Rod Carew (sp?? ... grew up around them, my mom did interior design work for them)

    Matt Traenor (I forget who he's with now ... was best friends with his sister in high school and we still chat, etc)

    I'm sure there are others but those are who come off the top of my head.

    My husband knows a lot from the hockey world ... Keifer Sutherland, Cuba Gooding Jr., Jerry Bruckheimer, Wayne Gretzky ... but I've never met any of them.

  • Since i live in NYC, i see a lot of celebs...but i don't "know" them really.

    Jorge Posada (yankees catcher) lives across the street from me

    David Duchovny lives on my blk... I see him 3x a wk.  Sometimes more than DH lol.

    I also go to Equinox (swanky gym) and they all work out there.  But it's not like we hang out at the juice bar afterwards lol.

  • Mainly, I know people from Reality TV.  A sorority sister who lived down the hall from me (and I still have a shirt I borrowed and never gave back) was on Big Brother. One of my girlfriends (and her DH and kids) were on "Real Football Wives" on VH1.  I've known at least 3 people who were on the Amazing Race and another girl who was on some VH1 show. Knew a girl who was on Survivor.  Have a couple of girlfriends married to pro-ball players...one of them was a pretty famous player in the MLB and played for a long time, but is now retired.  I have or have had a couple of clients who are semi-famous...or infamous.  I also know alot of people who either know or are related to very famous people but I don't know them personally.

    That is so cool.
