We ran into Cuba in Spokane, WA at a friend's 21st birthday party. As chance would have it, he took the table across the aisle from us, with three other people I assume were other cast members for the movie he was filming or something. Everyone at our table was entirely smashed and my girlfriend pointed out that if anyone noticed, they'd most likely cause a gigantic drunken scene. We decided to move venues at this point and carefully ushered everyone out. Fortunately, everyone was nearing blackout levels, so it wasn't too difficult to convince them with some fairly shaky logic that we should move.Barca wrote:DICKTRON wrote:

That's funny. I ran into Cuba Gooding Jr. at a bar in a casino once. My friends and i were debating whether or not it was him. I guess he heard us mention his name because he turned and smiled at is like he was gonna give us an autograph or something. I said, "Yeah, it is him," and we turned and walked away.
As she was taking care of the tab and ushering everyone out, I went to take a piss. Coming out of the bathroom I saw our friend Ben come back inside to retrieve his guitar which he had forgot at the table. He stopped, did a double take, and then shouted, "HOLY FUCKING SHIT! YOU'RE CUBA FUCKING GOODING JR.!"
I stopped and watched as the entire damn bar suddenly realized this. This poor guy who probably just wanted to enjoy a pint and his dinner was now surrounded by people who realized who he was. And leading it all is my friend Ben, drunk as fuck, trying to tell him that he's an upcoming local musician, and trying to get him to show up to his next gig he had at a hotel bar, etc etc etc.
About this point, Cuba looked over at me. No words were spoken, but the look in his eyes pretty much said it all. "Please. For the love of God. And all that is holy. If you have a shred of decency in you, GET THIS CRAZY FUCKER AWAY FROM ME!" I took that as my cue to run over and tell my friend that there was some guy out front looking for him asking about a record deal or something. Fortunately, he took the bait and ran out front without another word, and promptly forgot once he was out front why the Hell he was even out there, or why he went back inside.
After that, before exiting the bar I turned back and gave a goofy grin and a shrug to Cuba. He just shook his head and then nodded, and I left. Fortunately, almost everyone else was too blasted to remember what had happened, and we were able to move the party on down the street where aspiring starving artists couldn't make asses of themselves to celebrities in a public venue.
That was my only run in with someone famous. It was a train wreck, and I feel bad for it, but it was memorable. I think the best part was that the next day we told our friend that was having his 21st that Cuba Gooding Jr. was sitting next to us. He figured we were all just fucking with him like we occasionally did, and I actually had to send him a photo from my phone to prove we weren't shitting him.

Re: Famous peop's u've encountered in ur bar!
i saw Van Halen at a quincenera one time. they had just finished up a concert and "snuck in" the backdoor of the hotel i worked at. they made their way to the bar, but soon realized that the 2 other people in the bar didn't recognize them. soon after, they asked one of the bellmen "where are the party's in this town?" a slow, yet delightfully, dimwitted bellmen explained to them that the only party he knew of was a quincenera on the 2nd level ballroom. apparently crashing a 15 year old Mexican girls' right of passage into womanhood is customary in the music biz. when they were ready to check out the next day, they wanted an escort out of the back of the hotel. we obliged with their request. after walking out the backdoor into a barren parking lot, surrounded by two large trash dumpsters, they, at that moment, i'm sure realized that it wasn't 1986 anymore.

I was drunk as fuck and yelled "Minor Threat" at Ian MacKaye, but that was on the subway, since Sir Ian is straightedge and probably doesn't go to many bars.

It was a small club, the KC Lounge (Kennel Club). The dancers were on the bar. The Bushwhackers sat at the bar all night, laughing, making rude comments, and licking each others heads and shit. Man I laughed hard that night.billygoatcurse wrote:Nice..did they do the bushwhacker walk up to pervert row?ThirstyDrunk wrote:One time a buddy and I were in a strip club and we saw the Bushwackers.

Re: Famous peop's u've encountered in ur bar!
Lol, yeah. My impression of the punk scene was that it was all about debauchery, but after reading some history I did realize there were vocal contingents of the "my body is a temple"-types. Don't get it myself, why have rock'n'roll w/o the sex and drugs?

Fucking Danny McBride came into my local a few days ago and no one called me. The bitch who was bartending didn't know who he was until someone else pointed him out. I knew there was a reason I decided not to have sex with her anymore.
