Dwayne Wade (his weed connection in college was my good friend).

After that, my list falls off considerably.

I'm not sure Joe Cupo or Kevin Mannix count as celebrities

Jim Cramer... or Julian Robertson.

Vince Neil, Tommy Lee & Nicky Sixx from Motley Crue: Joe Elliott from Def Leppard: Tommy Keifer from Cinderella. I know a lot of 80's rock and rollers from the night club.

I don't know, but I have realized over the last 6-12 months that *a lot* of people out there use my site. The ones who have read the About Us page know my name/what I look like. And amazingly, I actually get recognized. At the WSOP, PCA and even just walking around the Emory campus, I find that people come up and introduce themselves all the time. Hell, I had a guy introduce himself to me when I was at a grocery store last fall. Anyway, among all of these website users, there have to be a fair number of famous people. I always hear that this or that celebrity or sports star loves to play online poker. So I'm assuming some famous people both use the site and have read the About Us page and therefore they know me by name. But I have no idea who they are.

i'm pretty good friends with the singer of a pretty well known hardcore band. he's extremely well known in that circle, but obviously not known at all outside of that.

bill clinton knows my dad by name, and my dad has told me that he has an unbelievable ability to remember names, so he might assume i'm my dad's son based on my last name.
