I won't lie but

People on this forum would not believe the celebrity I ran into more than once. I'll give you guys a hint. He is a religious man probably the most loved celebrity by most Christians. This a public forum so I can't say his name here.

there are a lot of people that impostor this individual and fool with their minds. But this was the real guy. That is all I'm saying :-X

... Jesus?

the real thing not Jason aka MJR

even though I supported Jason's YouTube Channel, for a couple months

enough said. people will not like it if I say anything else, not everyone even likes God or Jesus, a lot of people say F-Jesus online, talking about Jesus Christ is not a good thing to do unless you're participating in a christain forum but even then people on there are skeptical sometimes as well

I wouldn't pay the trolls on other pages any nevermind oldgamerz,  I think it's awesome you keep faith and are passionate about Jesus.  I personally believe in god but not organized religion.  I think these pages in particular wouldn't give you a hard time.    But i'm not sure.   

Have a great day Oldgamerz :)

To clarify, I’m only teasing due to the reluctance to tell us who it is.  I don’t care who, I just think it’s amusing that you think that there’s some reason not to tell us who because it’s a “public forum”.  So you met someone?  Big deal, who cares.  I bet dollars to donuts they would welcome the exposure.

Others I’ve met:

Dierks Bentley
Jim Gaffigan
Emily Procter
Saul Rubenik
David Warner
Chase Masterson

Also ate dinner one table away from George Takei and Nichelle Nichols.  Walked past Henry Rollins on a sidewalk.  Got waved to by Dolly Parton.  Saw Shania Twain trip in front of me.  Cooked lunch for Leann Rimes.

... Jesus?

Or Trump (the most loved celebrity by Christians). This thread just took a huge downturn. If it can't be mentioned on a "public" forum, why bring it up at all?

I've met many celebs. Hundreds, if not Thousands of MLB baseball players (Including quite a few HOFers- 3 hours once just chilling with Ernie Banks in a hotel lobby talking everything but baseball). Dozens of NFL players, a handful of NBA players. Hung out drinking with the Fixx one night, hung out drinking with L7 one night. Had a few min to chat with Ronnie James Dio once, met Halford, Garth Brooks, (as a baseball player) And One, VNV Nation, Covenant, Assemblage 23, many more lesser known. Actos: Val Kilmer, Kevin Coster, Ray Liotta, Bryan Cranston, Lou Diamond Phillips, a handful of other people from Breaking Bad (Filmed here), all less than formal settings. The only one I met at a meet and greet kinda thing was Ron Jeremy. I can't say meeting anyone phased me, though seeing people you grew up watching on TV is pretty cool...I never felt nervous or anything. I had a friend from back home that directed a couple movies. I was an extra in his 1st short film, but didn't make the final cut. It was really weird to go to Best Buy and see a blu ray with his name on it- considering how much time we hung out. I've never met anyone form the gaming industry, but I wouldn't know what anyone looks like anyway. I think a cool one would be David Crane- he made all my favorite activision games back in the day, lol.

Edit: I had personal interactions with all. There are more people I've seen, but don't count.

yes it was Jesus Christ I just was only afraid. last time I brought up Jesus on another gaming forum they banned me because someone on another forum someone was offended by my up-right cross for an avatar. I changed it. but one day I could no longer log into that forum (retro collect) insignificant permissions, I went back once and tried and got the same message. Maybe that guy that didn't like me became an admin, but it's only a guess

Our Gaming Forum Avatars And Why We Chosen them
« on: November 16, 2017, 05:22:09 pm »

My avatar is the earth as many might know. I chose it because I thought it was cool. To get the photo I simply put my PS3'S music on and pressed the square button 2 times. and took a photo You can too. it comes in handy putting something on the screen while listening to ripped cd tracks on your PlayStation 3's harddrive.

I chosen it rather then my crucifix because retro collect banned me for displaying an upright cross as an avatar. and I got perm banned for latter for putting an angel as my avatar. And I don't want to get banned here so I came up with the earth.

What Happen On a Different Forum for posting my preferred avatar
While I had the upright cross as an avatar. An ever so loved member complained to management I think. and then send me a pm for his dislike in everything I did on the forum while everyone else was fine with my posts and such. I told him to calm down and I am sorry I offended him than he bloats me again saying He wanted another apology for telling him to calm down. I am not going to say his name because some of the retro collect members are on VGcollect. chances are if you are on retro collect you may not know that is what happened to me.

If I posted a demon instead of an angel I might still be posting on that site

for the admins and others who are interested.

If we’re only talking about celebrities in the wild, I’ve met a few pro sports players while working retail around Atlanta:
Tom Glavine (Hall Of Fame pitcher for the Braves, I sold him a video game while I worked at Toys R Us)
Mookie Blaylock (former Hawks player)
Eddie Perez (former Braves player)
Mike Deveraux (former Braves player)
Tom Paciorek (former MLB player who was a broadcaster for the Braves at the time)

When I worked at Software Etc at the local mall, pro wrestler Raven came to do an autograph signing to promote an ECW video game (Anarchy Rulez, I think)

If we include conventions, I’ve met a ton of voice actors, pro wrestlers, and a handful of on-screen actors (I’ve been going to Transformer conventions since 1999). I can list them all if anyone’s interested  ;D

I ran into Pauly Shore at some pancake joint in Nashville.

Other than that, I can’t think of anyone. My wife has shook hands with Michael Jordan. So by proxy, I’ve held hands with the greatest basketball player of all time.  ;D

Met Liu Kang ( Robin Shou ) from the Mortal Kombat movies at a Night Club. He walked by to go to the Men's room, I noticed him from his signature hair. When he came out, I greeted him and he did a martial arts pose, then I proceeded to do the Scorpion Get over Here!, he did a block motion ;D. Lol, nice guy for entertaining me.

No, I know that you were just joking.  I was more referring to the trolls he mentioned encountering on other forums.  I know these forums kid but we don't flat out ban or abuse people over personal things.  :)


That's epic you met Jim Gaffigan.  Is he as funny in person as on stage? I know most comedians turn it off like a switch once they get in their personal life. 24/7 funny must be draining.

Ah good old Retro Collect,  that site is trash.  Glad you found this one.  Retro Collect if I remember correctly was the first site I clicked on directly before coming to this one.   They have limits on how much you can put in one collection and you have to pay to add more and the UI was just poor.   So unorganized and the site layout looks like I was back in 2004 on Windows Vista or something.  Was just so cluttered and I remember the admins being pompous.   I couldn't find the games properly.  It was bad. 



Then I came here by luck and met all the wonderful people on here and had fun sharing thoughts.  It was really a great thing.  :)

That's epic you met Jim Gaffigan.  Is he as funny in person as on stage? I know most comedians turn it off like a switch once they get in their personal life. 24/7 funny must be draining.

My university put on a free show that was both him and Zach Galifinakis around 2001-2.  Gaffigan had just release his first Comedy Central set and Galifinakis was still super underground.  They did some meet and greet in the lobby afterwards, and Gaffigan had a merch table just like any indie band you might go see.  I bought a CD and had him sign it.  He was super nice, but I think a bit drained from the show and schmoozing with the audience.

I saw him again about a year later at an actual comedy club, and sat at a table right next to the stage.  I think he remembered me (but probably couldn’t place from where), because I - and all the 4-5 others I was with - noticed that he just kept kind of staring at me through the show.
