Ok this story will blow your mind. This afternoon in West LA, i went to my favorite Starbucks for something cool to cool me down and i definately needed a caffine kick. So im in line ordering my double shot, half whip, caramel frappaccino, paid and stepped back to wait for my drink. So as i stepped back, i felt some guys foot smoosh, then in a calm deep voice, he said ouch. I quickly turn and apoligize, "im so sorrrrrie", i couldnt finish my apology. As i looked up at this guy wearing a beanie, face to face with this guy that ive seen a million times only on tv, movies, and magazines. Holy crap, all i could say was, your the "Gladiator". He kinda chuckled and said yes i am. He moved forward and ordered, and all i could do was stare in amazement. He was very cool, very down to earth, and he tipped well. I dared not attempting to speak to him, as i was already embaraced at the Gladiator remark. Hows that for a close encounter of the Hollywood Kind. Anyone else have a similar encounter or have any questions about mine?? Let me know

All I can say is you were VERY lucky he was in a good mood when you stepped on his foot. He does have a history of being violent.

My son lives and works in NYC, so running into 'stars' isn't the big thing it is elsewhere.
