Andre Ward. Back in 05', I was lingering around the UC San Francisco campus with a friend when we are approached by Andre, who was actually slanging tickets himself for his upcoming fight with Christopher Holt down in San Jose. I knew who he was from all the coverage he had gotten locally from the Olympic run, but I'm a pretty level dude, just jokingly commented about him being out there selling his own tickets and simply wished him luck. 05' was actually long enough ago that neither my boy or I had a camera on our phones, so no picture.
Also, my same friend saw Nonito Donaire at a Costco. And about 4 years ago, me and a group of friends were waiting in line to get into Jet Lounge in Vegas when we see an entourage of probably 8 deep huge dudes (mostly in suits) walking AWAY from Jet. In the middle of it all was NBA player Tracy McGrady. Had me thinking we were all wasting our time waiting to get into this place while T-Mac wasn't having it! lolComment
