I met an ex Flame. I guess I don't know what all the players look like. It was at crappy strip club in Vernon, BC. I was getting some drinks and he was in line wearing a Flames hat. It was after the playoffs in '04 and I said man I love the Flames. He just looked at me funny and said "yeah, I use to play for them." Anyways he was not very friendly and gave me another dirty look and walked away.
I thought he looked like Mike Vernon but then I looked at a picture of Vernon and it wasn't him. I am 6'2" and he was alot shorter then me. Maybe 5'7" to 6'0" not sure.

I meet Lanny McDonald when I was younger. My mom is friends with his wife.

Haven't been lucky enough to bump into anyone else famous.

*edit* when I was little I met Jim Davis at a cartoon museum in Florida and he autographed my Garfield comic book.
