Brush with Fame

My cousin is having a contest this week for the best Celebrity sighting story.

Of course, I submitted mine, but I have to share it with you as well.

Here it is:

Me and Mrs. Balogger were in Vegas back in '02.

I was pretty upset because it was our last night in town and other than Fabio, i hadnt seen any celebs, and who really gives a sh!t about him.

Well, as we were walking down the strip, i see a brother come off the escalator in a 3 piece suit (it's like 98degrees outside), so he immediately catches my eye.

I recognize the guy as Mr. Prime Time himself Neon Deion.

So as he approaches, I get hype.

"YO!!! YO!!! ( i say to everyone around me, including him)...THAT'S DEION WIGGINS!!!!"

He looks at me kinda strange, but throws up his hand and walks by me, with a look of disgust, and i dont understand why.

Mrs. Balogger kept it moving, so i ran to catch up to her.

I said "Do you know who that was? That was Deion Wi.....OOOOOOHHH NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"

I called this man the wrong name....TO HIS FACE!!!!!

Deion Wiggins was a former coworker of mine and I called Deion Sanders by HIS name. I was too embarrassed to back and apologize.

I never felt more like a fool.
