I went to one of his banjo shows and he was great. He told a few funny self deprecating jokes and stories between songs without turning information technology into a stand-up routine. Information technology was really about the music. The venue was in a casino (not Vegas) and afterwards he came into the poker room and sat at one of the regular tables to play. Not a high roller room. He said hi and smiled at everyone and then just blended in. He engaged in typical small-scale talk, merely it was obvious he wasn't trying to exist the star of the prove. At first at that place was a security baby-sit lingering around but he eventually wandered off. I'm certain celebrities must beloved situations where they can just enjoy existence a normal person. I was glad nobody bothered him while he was playing. Maybe he handed out a few of those autographs earlier he left, but he was still playing when I had to get home. Yeah, he was a very good poker player.

Mr. Martin is a poker player and enjoyed playing online poker as well as joining Johnny Carson'due south home games. We miss you lot, Mr. Carson. Apart from comedy, interim, music, and poker, he also writes children's books. I've had a stupid trounce on him since I saw him in the Iii Amigos with Martin Brusk and Chevy Chase.

That's how Dave Chapelle is too. We were sitting with him at the bar (I don't remember he was drinking though) I worked at and it took my room mate like. 20 minutes to realize who he was. I worked somewhere where high-profile people came. He just was and then kind. Down to earth. And humble. And I never ask for autographs when they're trying to enjoy themselves. I don't even acknowledge that I know they're famous. Just treated him like a normal gentleman I would at any bar. Not bad guy.

I got a screaming deal on inkjet business cards dorsum in loftier school, and ended up making novelty concern cards for a lot of people, including "You but met [SuperFLEB's Actual Proper name]! Aren't you glad you did?" ones for me. This post is really inspiring me to grit the idea off and make some more.

I made business organisation cards for my domestic dog. His title is head of security. He doesn't take it seriously though, he's kind of a shitty baby-sit dog. He loves anybody. He would probably welcome an intruder and roll over for belly rubs.

I've heard virtually this! 1 of the teachers from my high school owns one of these cards. I don't remember the story exactly, but substantially the instructor was on vacation and ran into Steve Martin in a store. He approached him quietly saying something along the lines of "Hi, lamentable to bother you, but are you Steve Martin?" Patently SM only raised his fingers to his lips giving the hush indicate, pulled the card out of his wallet gave it to the teacher, and left the store. The way the teacher told story gave the impression that SM was a complete class act and kind, he simply didn't want to draw attending to himself.

That is such a swell move, if you're a celeb. You get to exit quickly & quietly from a fan encounter, and go out them with a dandy impression and a memento to prove their cool story. It'due south genius!
