    I remember running into Miami Heat players coming out the Pool lounge in the Aria in vegas. Ran into various Bears and Bulls players because where I worked was near their practice facilities or they lived close by.

    When I first move to Atlanta like 8 years ago, I was leaving the mall, outside the lil valet parking section outside Lenox Mall...

    Just driving off, me and my cousin.. I see a dark skin ? with his head down using his phone, with the pancake cut...

    I yell out "Shannon!"

    He look up like "I aint in denver how the hell this ? know me"..


    But yea he did look up and probably mumbled something I couldn't hear like "wasup" but you can tell he aint wanna be bothered.

    Working at Newark Airport in 99, I met Bernie Williams right after he resigned with the Yankees. The next day, I'm walking through the terminal on my way to punch out for the night and meet Patrick Ewing waiting for a red eye. Both were pretty cool.
