so i met a famous person

Mar 01, 2007 22:54

so i was sitting in the lobby in wells fargo today in huffman waiting for a job interview. this older black man who had just came in was at the teller talking, then came and sat in the seat next to me. he then talked on the phone for a few minutes, and i thought his voice sounded strangely familiar. i heard one of the tellers say several minutes later, "ok george, your process is complete." just then i looked up and it hit me.

i was sitting next to George Foreman for probably 15 minutes and didn't even know it. he walked by on his way out, and i said "hey, how are you doing? " he looked at me and smiled and said "hey there, how's it going?"

i was stunned. he was a nice guy, regular clothes. sandals with socks. looked very comfortable. and then it hit me. jeez, i just talked to the man who fought mahamid ali. and he lives in huffman, texas...of all the places in the world. so extremely odd.

as i sat with my jaw open, the manager introduced herself and i was like...whoa was that george foreman? she was like, yes, he banks here and lives down the road. he's such a nice guy.

and thats the jist of it. nothing to fabulous, but its not everyday you meet a celebrity. and today, i did.
