Famous people you met that were jerks

Met Joe Phillips at an elementary school his daughter was attending in 95 and he was really nice. Other than being the biggest mountain of a man I have ever met in person he was just like any other dad there. Seriously looked like a block of granite.

Brief encounter with Brett at an indoor baseball training facility back in the 90's when I was still playing baseball in a men's league. Pretty full of himself, but didn't see anything surprisingly dickish.

John Mayberry on the other hand was super nice laid back and cool, and stopped by my cage to give me some pointers.

Met John Mayberry at a sports bar during early Marty Ball era. I grew up in the same neighborhood, but I knew the kid that had his lawn-mowing on lockdown, so I never met him back in the day. Nice guy.

I had a similar experience with Jerry Fontenot, who was an offensive lineman for the Bears back in the 90s. Dude was ENORMOUS. I ran into him and his smoking hot fiancée that I worked with leaving the office. He took up the entire doorway. Only time in my life that I had to reach up like I was doing a Nazi salute to shake somebody's hand.
