'Twas me! Well I'd heard of him and I live all the way up here, and I knew what he looked like without having met him before. So he must be famous.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Same.
 
I said "hi" like I knew him. Full credit though, he said hi back.

This 'bencher place is a gay bar isn't it?  So he should say hi.  At least.

That's the benefit/disadvantage of being brave enough to put your mugshot on the site. Nice one LG, looks like you're on the way to becoming a cult figure. (Had to make sure I spelt that properly)

When the caketin's brainiac staff originally put us next to the yellow fever zone I recognised him too. I caught his eye and said hello, then realised he'd have no idea who I was or why a Victory fan was saying hello to him!

so Lonegunmen is now really famous (as much as for being a QPR fan as for being recognised everywhere)

We're a sad bunch arent we. A whole page and the only celebrity we could unearth, figuratively speaking Lonegunman, was the great man himself, who put his mugshot up on day one.
 
Surely someone famous must love us. We arent Millwall, or Auckland.
 
Either we all need to follow Lonegunman's example so that we can acknowledge each other in the street, (or train), or we need to get out there an spot someone.
 
There is a guy coming next weekend who I saw on Telly this morning. No, not Paul Henry, David...
 
What say the Backbencher put up a couple of jugs for the most original yellow fever connected photo with the man himself.

I've been hanging out with tonnes of famous people in the Platinum Lounge but don't want to tell the rest of you cos you'll try and muscle in.  Bikini models, Girls of Playboy Mansion, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Scarlet Johansson etc.  Sort out your own lives you vicarious thrill seekers...

We should have a gallery somewhere of mug shots of every member of YF. Learn each others faces and get talking when we see each other in the street.

Well even if some famous people did come, the notable ones probably wouldn't be sitting with the great unwashed. Especially during shirts off.. it gets pretty whiffy. :(

They're probably like whole groups of them sitting on the far side so we can't see them and stare at them creepily.

There were two brothers, one joined the merchant navy and sailed the seas constantly, the other became a bigtime New Zealand tv celebrity.  Neither was ever seen or heard of ever again....

Someone could just start up a facebook group and do it that way.
 
Otherwise there is a great game I know that involves a set of keys each...

If Swordfish is anything to go by, that's not terribly exciting.  I wouldn't say no of course - but that topless scene was so completely pointless and not even hot.  I mean hell, if you can pay Halle to take her shirt off for one scene, make it a sex scene at least.

Absolutely still around. 

George is close to, or has departed but Clebo may hang around for a while.  At least that's the word I've had from folks who have seen them both lately.

How's my driving? - Whine here

I'll be looking out for you Big Fella!
I had knee surgery yesterday which is the main reason I won't be down for the Adelaide game, and that other game the following night, but I'll be there for the game against Queensland so I'll have to get your autograph this time 

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.
