A handful of Blazers (mostly while working at a grocery store). Partied with Oden's ex (then girlfriend) once, for some reason he didnt come even though he shelled out for a limo for her and her friends
Met a couple old Blazers players. Helped Brian Grant find a cup for his kid for football. Talked with Steve Blake about a treadmill last year. He's lucky he didnt buy one since he was shipped outta here like a month later. My manager had him sign a baseball
Met some Jaguars players for my birthday when I was a kid. Biggest name was probably Tony Boselli.
Went to a rival high school of Kevin Love's, so I saw him around back then.

*David Robinson (I knew he was tall,but when you're standing like 5 feet away from him...DAMN!)
*Warren Sapp (Walked RIGHT by him on the street and didn't realize it was him.By the time it hit me he was gone
)
*Rodney Peete (Hopped right out of the Caddy with Holly Robinson Pete in tow)
*Antawn Jamison (I spotted
him and his crew across the street from where I was posted up)
*Alonzo Mourning (Stepped out of the Continental T across the street from where I was standing.All the celebs were stepping out of their vehicles at the entrance)
^I saw all these people when the ASG touched down in DC (2000 I think?MCI Center > Verizon Center btw)
I also peeped Corey Maggette and (I think) Nikki McCray (who I had a slight crush on) or it could've been Chimiqua Holdsclaw (sp?).They were signing autographs at some event at the (old) Convention Center.I don't remember the nature of the event though.

Being that seattle is so small, this will explain most of the people i've met so,
Went to highschool with Brandon Roy ( class of 03, he was 02), we used to copy homework from the same chick ( who got pretty far on American Idol, i can't remember her name)
Met Nate Robinson back in the day, his little brother ended going to my highschool and would just come by to chill in my neighborhood.
Same with Aaron brookes, would just see all the time growing up, was cool with his older brother ( never liked aaron too much)
Terrence Williams went to my high school before he transfered to Rainer Beach ( where Nate, and Jamal crawford went)
Everybody would see Jamal Crawford and Jason Terry. Still see Jamal at Rainer Beach when i'm in seattle (my little brother trains there, and will play in the fall)
Corey Dillon just around the city.
When i moved to the Bay:
Veron Davis a few times
Marshawn Lynch when he still lived in Oakland ( dude is a town +#+@% to the fullest
)
Alex Smith's weak +@@
Jamarcus Russell (I saw in the club more than a few times
)
Monta Ellis at the walmart by the Oakland airport. For a good month everytime i went to there I would see dude eating fries like somebody above said
I'll post more once i think of them

Countless Michigan athletes on campus (Darryl Stonum was in one of my classes last year)
Eric Maynor my freshmen year at VCU
Steve Francis at the airport
Played ball with Caron at Lifetime
Had lunch with Jeremy Lin
Juwan Howard at NT Chicago
Kevin Durant at Lifetime Fitness
Dhani Jones in Herald Square
Demarcus Cousins gave me a high 5 at the NBA draft
Nate Robinson, Steve Nash, Gisueppe Rossi, Claudio Reyna and other athletes in Chinatown for Nash's charity soccer game
All I can think of right now.

living in LA you come across celebs/athletes here and there. Some of my more notable chance meetings
Some other NTers might also remember this but when we were camping outside of NTLA for the Espo/Pharell Artist Series, Mike Bibby, Bobby Jackson, and a few other of the Kings players happened to walk by and walked into the store. Bibby asked me why everyone was lining up, and it took me a second to realize it was him.
Was golfing at the local muni by my office after work one day when I shanked my drive into a stand of low hanging trees. Little did I know, but I almost pegged Jordan Farmar with the shot. When I went to go look for my ball he was driving around that area in his golf cart. He said he dropped his cellphone on that hole (he was a couple holes ahead of us). Farmar was playing with Kevin Love and a couple of their buddys. NBA contract money and all they can afford is a super twilight at a muni? SMH

Gary Payton's mother and father-in-law used to live across the street from me. They were having a party and invited the neighbors so I got to talk to Payton for a little bit. This was the offseason before he signed with the Lakers so he mentioned how he was in talks with them. He was a real cool dude.
