Seeing people you know are famous, but don\'t know from where
Today my girlfriend and I were walking around the monuments in DC when we decided to go to the Jefferson Memorial because I always want to go there but never bother to.
Anyway, we're sitting on the steps when I see this guy walking around, and I know that I know him, but can't remember from where. The first thing that I thought was that he was the guy from Predator, but no, that was Carl Weathers and this guy definitely was NOT Apollo Creed. Who was he? I couldn't stop thinking about it. I thought he was on TV, not movies. Maybe in a cop show? No, not a cop, a teacher or something, no, a coach, that's it. He played a football coach somewhere, right? Boston Public? No, they didn't have a football coach. Definitely a football coach or something to do with coaching or sports, but probably football. I saw a couple of people go up to him and ask him for an autograph and to get a picture with him, so it wasn't just me, he's clearly somebody famous, but I couldn't put my finger on it. Anyway, it turns out the guy was James Brown, the Fox Football commentator.  What should I have done? I thought about just walking up to him and asking but who the [censored] would do that? Just walk up to some guy while he going around the monuments with his wife and be like "Hey, I know you from somewhere. You're obviously kinda famous but clearly not famous enough for me to ACTUALLY know who you are, so who the [censored] are you," but how rude would that have been? Anyway, what would you have done?

 I saw her in a pet store a couple years ago. [/ QUOTE ] I always wondered what I'd do if I got in a cab and I recognized the driver as one of the Taxicab Confessions people. I'd definitely try to make up as much crazy [censored] as I possibly could.

Re: Seeing people you know are famous, but don\'t know from where
you should have asked him if Urkel was always annoying on set.
after the confusion clears you can show massive disappointment that he is not in fact carl winslow.

A real akward situation occurs when the guy you recognize but don't know ends up standing near you and has the look of "why aren't you on my nuts? I'm famous!"

[/ QUOTE ] The funny thing about this is that as soon as I said "I think he played a cop on a TV show," my girlfriend's response was "It's definitely Carl Winslow," which, of course, it wasn't.
