Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?
Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

This story's wank
Not really celebrities either, but it's the closest I can get. Went to an autograph signing in Mansfield with David Hirst and Mark Bright a few years back, since I'm a Sheff Wednesday fan. There was a huge line for them, and next to them at the table stood two Mansfield Town players without anybody waiting for them. When I got to the front of the line and met Hirst and Bright, the bloke I went with said (quite loudly) "Shall we get autographs from them two Mansfield players too?" I stared one of them in the face as they stared back, with a twinkle of hope in their eyes - "Nah."
The irony is that Mansfield will probably go up this season and be better than us next season. Ah well.
