I have had conversations and likes both with 2 NFL players, Reggie Wayne and Robert Mathis. Sometimes my twitter accou t be hoppin'!

Well since everyone is also starting to tell stories on here about meeting semi-famous people in person too, then I guess I should add that I went to class with Ted Larsen (Miami Dolphins) when I was at NC State. NC State has a huge campus, so I never ran across any of the other star football, or basketball players that were there when I was.

Not that I know of but even if they did I probably wouldn't know it. I don't keep track of anyone that is known.

The other day my sister gave me a newly released humorous book called, "And Then You Died of Dysentery." I took a photo of me holding the book in my hand and posted it on twitter. I told the official Oregon Trail page and Lauren Reeves (the author) that I received the book from my sister and enjoyed it. Lauren Reeves liked my comment and commented back. It looks like she is what you could call a B or C list celebrity. A little research says she has been on Saturday Night Live, been a news anchor in Alaska, been on The Late Show, and had other minor roles in movies and TV series.

Oh and I recently got another like on twitter from Courtney Force (NHRA Drag Racer) after I retweeted her post. That is 2 from her in about a month.

One of my favorite bands (Nothing More) followed me back and replied to me via a comment on social media.

I got to meet them last year at a concert - told myself I was gonna act cool. Pff!! acted like a total dweeb.ead:

My NHRA list just keeps growing. Today NHRA driver TI'm Wilkerson retweeted a comment of mine and liked my comment. Last Night NHRA driver Bob Tasca III liked a comment of mine again. So did NHRA funny car champion and Fox Sports NHRA broadcaster Tony Pedregon along with Fox Sports NHRA broadcaster Lewis Bloom.

I work at CFA. The Dobre brothers (extremely popular YouTubers) regularly come with their 6 figure cars, and I talked to one of them. They live 30 minutes away from me.

I don't know all of them either, but I'm pretty sure they're all quite famous in their lines of work. The two biggest and most well known out of my list would probably be NHRA drag racer Courtney Force and NikkI Sixx from the band Motley Crue and the radio show Sixx Sense.

I heard about this site on the radio today. This is interesting. One guy said he had an actor from his wife's favorite show make a video for her on Valentine's Day.

I'm sure celebrities would ask a person not to brag about it and also threaten counter actions.

In my experience female celebrities ask me not to brag about it and also threaten counter actions.

So you hang out with female celebrities sometimes?

I got a like and comment back from Eddie Krawiec tonight on twitter. He's the most famous driver on the NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle circuit right now. He's always on TV when they are showing the drag races on Fox here in the USA. NHRA seems to be the most interactive group on twitter when it comes to sports leagues.

Percy Montgomery (South African International Rugby Player) once mouthed a choice expletive at me, even took his gum shield out. He was playing at the time, on the pitch. I was about 14.

Back when social media didn't exist obvs.

Was more recently told by Neville Southall (Ex International Footballer) that he'd kill me if I spiked his orange juice. Although that was more in jest.

I got a like on twitter from Terry Gannon the other day. He's a sports broadcaster for NBC. He covers PGA and the Olympics for them. He's also famous here in Raleigh NC because he played on NC State's 1983 NCAA championship basketball team.

Last week Joey Chestnut commented back at me on twitter on national chicken wing day. He asked if he should go for 400. I said to go for it and he responded by saying "trying." For the record he ate 413 chicken wings at hooters over about 12 hours. He's most famous for being the unbeatable hot dog eating champion every year here in the USA on the 4th of July. He usually heats around 70+ hot dogs in about 12 minutes.

I saw a show about competitive eaters one time. One guy woke up every morning and chugged a gallon of water in just a few seconds to stretch his stomach. They also fast for a day before the competition. He was able to eat chicken wings all day because he kept taking a break every now and then.

Why would you do that to yourself...

LOL! There is some truth to that, but it is pretty easy to tell when it is them, or not. The real person/profile has a blue check on twitter that confirms it is actually them. Plus sometimes the famous person will post personal photos, or say something that they would only know.

Kyle MacLachlan decided to follow my twitter and I died. They Might Be Giants, Michael McKean, Andy Richter, Rob Cordry, Dietrich Bader all are my Twitter “buds”. Some I’ve met, some I have yet to. If they’re a comedian in LA, I probably know ‘em.

But my favorite is the 8th Doctor. I met Paul McGann on twitter and we’ve been friends ever since. He’s gotten me coffee a few times. I love that man. Love.

I've been very successful in getting blocked on twitter by politicians, but only a couple celebrities have blocked me. I did get a video of Daniel Baldwin's mastiffs once, when I suggested that he let the poor babies sleep in.
