Have any of you met any professional athletes (From any sport)? This could be at a "meet & greet",  by random, etc.

 

Post who you've met, and where you met them.

 

 

I'll start:

Adam Henrique - NHL Player - I met him during a "meet & greet" when he was with the NJ Devils. Got a signed Jersey + hockey puck

 

Erwin Mulder - Current Backup Keeper for Swansea City - Met him when he was the Feyenoord starter, and I was taking a tour of the home stadium, De Kuip. Our tour group randomly ran into him in the tunnels, which was kinda cool.

 

Also, a few people from my University play in the MLS, including Zack Steffen (current US National Team keeper), so I've ran into them on campus/in the dining halls, etc.

Marshawn Lynch. Worked at a streetwear spot when I was 19 & Marshawn was holding a youth camp in my city. After his camp, he showed up to our store in Beast Mode attire with his hood on because he didn't want to be spotted & harassed, he just wanted to shop in peace. A fan came up & asked for a photo and he politely declined. 30 seconds later, we see a flash in the corner & that same person was recording him so he got pissed & threw that dude into one of our displays....... yeah we didn't leave the store til 1am lol. rip.
