[Teddybear]

This was many moons ago when I lived and worked in Atlanta. I along with a group if others went to see the Hawks play at the Omni, which isn't the Omni anymore. I was coming out of the restroom and literally ran into Ted Turner. I almost knocked him down. He is short and his security team treated me like I was out to kill him.

For Gods sake I just wanted to get back to the game.

I met him yrs later in North Ga where he owns a horse ranch, well he did not sure if he does anymore. He at the time was dating a local woman and was out and about with him

During my travels I have ran across different types of celebrities. The one other then TT was "Catus Jack" of wrestling fame. It was in south Ga at a fuel stop he was heading to Savannah for a match and I was driving to who knows where. I said to him hey u look just like "Catus Jack". He said no not me. I said oh I'm sorry and walked away. We both were in line and the cashier said the same thing and he gave the same answer. Then he asked for his coffee to be free. She told him they only gave police or troopers coffee for free. He goes do u know who I am?!! She said guess a bum wanting free coffee. Everyone in line just laughed he didn't. I think if he hadn't been a jerk to ppl he would have gotten the coffee for free.

I will come back later with others and those stories as well
