I put Ricky, because I just want a little insight about how he's portrayed in the media.

As for the others, I've actually had the pleasure of hanging out with Zach Thomas, Jason Taylor, and Trace Armstrong in Gainesville. It was back in 2003. Late at night on a Tuesday, my buddies and I were hanging at a local pup after a huge accounting test. Side Bar was the name. In stroll three huge dudes and some other people. Not a huge enterage, but noticeable. There were only about 10 people in there before they came in. I didn't catch it at first, because Taylor and Thomas had hats on backwards...but my buddy leans over...another huge phinfan...and spots Taylor. Now we didn't want to be those guys who annoy the crap out of celebrities, but we went over nonchalantly and said hello and expressed our love for the team and thier accomplishments. We started to walk away and Armstrong asks if we are gators. We say yes. He says, and I qoute, "Hell...have some drinks with us then." We then have beers together. Just one a piece. We paid for them. Nothing spectacular happened afterwards. They didn't ask us to be their buddies or anything, but it was awesome. Armstrong was visiting family in the area and they were all in Jax for something anyways. There were no autographs. No Pictures. Just hanging out and making them laugh. It was great. For those 20 minutes they were just big guys hanging out and having drinks with real friends(not us, but the people they came with). We actually only talked football for about 2 minutes. The rest we spent on what we were studying, politics, and being young enough to enjoy college. Then we shook hands with all three of them and said goodbye and walked out. It was hands down a "never forget" moment. Believe what you want, but it's the truth.
 
Saban would be very interesting to spend some time with. He's very bright and I just might learn something from him. But I better not have the "brook trout" look or my visit will be over.... :lol:

Theres no reason not to believe that, cool story man! The only athlete I have met off the field was Jim Kelly when I was like 13 I think. I was up in Buffalo visiting family and we were at a Fudruckers up there and my dad spotted him. This was when he was on crutches after an injury but I followed him outside and got him to sign a napkin. The funny thing was I had borrowed a sweater from someone that happened to be a Dallas Cowboys one so he saw that and gave me this weird look. I told him I was a Dolphin fan though and that made him even more happy, lol! Anyways he was cool considering the circumstances and all, I ended up losing that damn napkin too so all I have is the story, ehh thats life.
 
Even when he played at wvu. I always wanted to meet and hang out with kay-jay harris for a while

Sadly, i dont think thats ever going to happen:(
 
It would have to be Zach with special guests, DD28, Megatron, Dubfire, Biltfinfan, cnc66, Finswin56, Crunchtime, and Nublar7!:rawk: :drinkers:
 
Jason Taylor, I worked with a few guys in Pittsburgh that knew him growing up. They said he is a very cool guy.

or grab your neck...:rofl3:
 
Me and coach Saban can chill and eat some snacky cakes. I'd bring him 4 boxes. We'd be best friends.
 
I chose Roth because he went to Iowa and I seen him play so many times in college. And because i am from Iowa.

Other than that the cheerleaders sounded fun also.

And I stayed away from Tricky Rick. Because that dude is just too weird
