Tarrus Riley

Met him on the last full day of my graduation trip to Negril Jamaica last August with two of my buddies. Didn't know who he was at the time but wanted a picture with his legit attire and then he explained how he was an reggae artist but in my head I kinda underestimated who I was talking too until I came home and played the CD I bought from him and looked him up.


Post your stories. With pictures to help keep the claims to a minimum.

I spent an hour with a man in a hot tub who I was about 80% sure was Will Ferrel. I asked him if it was truly he, but sadly it wasnt. Still, he did yell "St. Odin's Raven!!" and helped me plug all the jets so water shot out of the cracks in the concrete around the tub, so it might as well have been him.

That might have been the best thing about Mr. Hawke, he was not all dazzled up. I mean shit, I looked more stylie than him. I even think he might have been wearing some sort of Carthartt get up.

Jermaine Dye named his son after me...kinda.

My uncle was his agent and had him over for dinner. His wife was pregnant and they were looking for names. Some how my aunt brought up my name in a conversation not related and he hinted to his wife that he liked it. Sure enough they used it.

Met Dudemont and colby at keystone.

Dumont hit and down rail first, and colby goes up to my friend and says I can't belive he stayed on the whole way. Then he does the rail and falls off. It was a good experience.

The only "celebrities" I think I've met were, BAM and Brandon Novak. I've also met some pro skaters, but that's about it. The skaters were: Andy Mac, Bob Burnquist, Bucky Lasek, Sheckler and Travis Pastrana's wife Lyn-z Adam Hawkins.

I have autographs if I really need to prove it. They're really not even prove worthy people though. Just sayin, in case anyone asks.

I've never met any pro skiers but I'd really like too, that'd be so cool.

jake burton's son went to private school with me, and jake himself went there back in the day. he used to get baked and steal the trays from the cafateria and ride them down hills in the snow at night, and that's how snowboarding came to be. i shit you not. but i met the jake man himself once or twice when he was registering his son. really nice dude, donated an entire new gym with locker rooms and a weight room to the school.

Bret Hedican was at my house on two separate occasions. First time he just came over and swam in my pool. The second time he brought the Stanley Cup over after he won it with the Canes.

I've met Talib Kweli, he was super nice. Signed my beat pad. I also met Eyedea (R.I.P.) and P.O.S. at Soundset, both really cool dudes. I accidentally wandered back stage and saw P.O.S. and was star struck so I didn't realize the security guard was telling me to leave. I walked up and asked him to sign my ticket and he said "Sure man, no problem." and literally hopped on stage with Doomtree and started rapping the second he got done signing my ticket. It was dope.

The clinton's used to live in the next town over from me... I biked past Bill and Hilary and said hi once.

I also had lunch with Malik Rose in some special thing with my dad's work. Both were pretty awesome

I saw Russ Henshaw in a mall one time. He's not really a celeb though and it wasn't really an encounter.


Also OP, didn't someone make a thread saying that that hand symbol you're doing has something to do with female empowerment?
