Taffy · 05-12-2003

Yeah, like the topic says...everybody is famous for at least sometime in their life.

What's your 15 min. of Fame to date?

I was inspired by seeing fordfocussucks on a UPN show.

My mom was on a commercial for Chevy trucks when I was in like 6th grade and it had her full name in the ad. Everybody at school was coming up to me and asking me about it...lol

So I guess that counts?

i'm in a skateboard video, well i've been in a couple low budget ones that probably no one has seen but i was in Adios "One step beyond" if you heard of Jackass on MTV then you may know who Bam margera is, if you know who Bam margera is, he is sponsered by Adio (shoe company) and i can be seen for a split second in the background during on of his tricks, but since this is a Civic board and not a Jackass or skateboarding board i'm pretty sure no one has seen or heard of this movie.

The last 2 weeks I have been getting about 4 hours a fame. I have been sitting in at the campus radio station, to learn the board, and probably have my own show next semester. We also broadcast over the web. www.kuws.fm

I've been interviewed a few times here for the news about how hockey is becoming a popular sport here.

Juggaman · 05-13-2003

I've been on the news concerning the Titans several times. The year we went to the Super Bowl, I was down in Jacksonville at the AFC Champ. game (we whooped J'ville). I was on my local news (Nashville) and I was also interviewed by a J'ville station (talkin' smack!) 'cuz me and my bro had huge red afro's on. It was good times...I've had a couple other instances, but that was great stuff.

HondaLuver · 05-13-2003

Master · 05-13-2003

every college football and basketball season I am on tv all the time. I am a RUF/NEK at the University of Oklahoma. We are the guys that drive the sooner schooner (if anyone knows what that is) we are on the field and basketball sidelines every home game and most away games, we have these loud a$$ shotguns we shoot off everytime OU scores in football. The camera always comes and shoots us. It is the funnest time ever being on the field in front of 75,000 people that cheer at your request.

Importracer · 05-13-2003

uh ive been in the paper atleast 10 times this year for football and track at school. Ive also been featured as the sports standout 3 times!. Ive been interviewed on a local channel and ive had my car in a ad for a local proformance shop and ive been in the paper for a local grocery store advertisement.

only if girls ask for your number at the end of the night.

For the passed two years I've been working at city hall. The mayor knows me, the workers know me, the 5 billion lawyers and even the cops know me. Some of the cops I'm closer with flash their headlights when they see me out on the road. They're all old peoples, and I've got the only 7th gen in the lot. Lotta nice cars though: BMWs, Benz, cars that say "My driver's almost retiring".

BluBttrflie · 05-13-2003

I did a solo dance in front of my entire high school when I was a senior... thought that was cool back then.
Currently, should the police department back home choose to use my new logo and car graphics (as well as some brochures/posters and an anti-drunk-driving ad campaign) we're going to see if the local paper will do a feature on me.
Otherwise, I'm sure eventually SOMETHING will come up. Don't REALLY care if it does or not tho... I have more important things to worry about. Everything that comes from it all is just a perk.

BlueFlame · 05-13-2003

I was on the news when I was a baby.
Then I gave a speech in front of my entire school in the 7th grade.
I was on a local cable channel giving a speech to city hall.
And again for another program when I was picking on some bank's mascot and he started chasing after me - you can see the whole thing in the background.
I've been on the radio a bunch of times, although I usually sound like a tool. It's hard talking on the air if you're not used to it!

vincenzobar · 05-13-2003

I have been in the paper for roller hockey in my college days for the Savannah Lightining. don't know if they are even still around...

ZMan2k2 · 05-13-2003

I was on a kid's TV show here when I was 8 or 9. I made a fire safety poster, and I won a BMX bike and an interview on the show. Anyone around Calgary may remember the kid's show "Buckshot and Benny". WOOHOO!!

kristy · 05-13-2003

I was in the H20 home video (hardcore/punk band) for like a split second, I'm shown standing in line for one of their shows. They speed by me but hey i'm still there haha.
