Your Claim to Fame?

[Marlin]

I'm bored,,,

What's your claim to fame?

Me, I got my name in the Littleton Independent 4 times..

Once in 5th grade,,

Twice in 6th grade, once for taking 4th in a wrestling tournement. And, once for taking 3rd..

Last time was for Graduating from High School..[Abused]

[crzy_one]

Was in the Arizona republic in 6th grade for a YMCA group where they took kids out with Honda sponsored dirt bikes...

Was on the news a hand full of times in Phoenix investigating roll over accidents when I was with the Highway Patrol...

I didn't feel very special...

[Aloha_Shooter]

Congrats KellyTTE! Always loved reading those stories in Boys' Life but never had one of those occasions pop up on my watch.

My claim? Hmm .... I'm probably the worst shooter on these boards ...

[Marlin]

Good for you Kelly. [HiFive]

[SAnd]

I used to carry a newspaper clipping reporting my death in a car accident in 1973. The report was in the paper two days after the accident.

And a television station in Minneapolis reported I was killed in an airplane accident on thier afternoon news show. This was in 1975. Fortunatly my folks had the correct info before then.

[BooHoo]

I ain't dead yet. Oh and I don't do boats or water stuff.

Steve A.

[Zundfolge]

I was the shooter on the grassy knoll [Angel2]
(which was kinda cool since I was born in 1969).


Seriously though, I was on Romper Room once when I was 4.

[gnihcraes]

...named several times over several days in the denver post newspaper about two years ago... no photos thankfully, I don't think my name was brought up on the talk shows, but I kinda just turned everything off and didn't listen for a while. Was mentioned like 58 times in a 90 page affidavit for a court case related to the situation I won't mention here. It didn't turn out good for someone, but it wasn't me. Spent about 3-4 months hiding from the news reporters... no fun.

Remember to never put your personal information on a police report that has to do with work related items. stupid stupid stupid... use the work information.

couple other misc. times in local neighborhood papers for high school drunk driving awareness types of things... nothing special.

[ChadAmberg]

Me and a buddy were first responders to a plane crash, so made the full color front page of the newspaper: http://pirate-king.com/episode/8

That's me on the left.

Dead man walkin! (Sorry, but someone had to say it.)


Boy Scouts National Court of Honor: Certificate of Heroism and Medal for Meritorious Action for saving a toddler from drowning in a winter lake when I was 12.

I have a similar story. My biggest claim to fame was when I was in the Scott AFB paper for saving a guy from drowning in the base pool. It was during a pool party with the Med Group and there was a Life Guard on duty. The Life Guard didn't budge and when I pulled the guy out of the deep end then out of the pool and he wasn't breathing, it took the computer geek (me) to clear the guys airway and get him breathing again. Of course, the newspaper story mis-quoted me and made me look really stupid.

I've been in papers here and there for piddley little crap that I can't even remember.

my attorney in the formative years (very early 70's)is this guy
http://www.politico.com/blogs/thecrypt/0907/Rep_King_There_are_too_many_mosques_in_this_countr y_.html

too bad he has drifted from his roots. i told him at my folks 80th b-day, he was loosing support from those who put him into office, based on his gun law "ideas"

my old man was NYPD, like his dad. there were some many famous/actors, broadway folks i met when a kid in the city we don't have enough room.

Juliet Prowse signed an autograph for him when he was her "bodyguard" it read
....................To The Best Dick in New York ....................

he recovered Mickey Mantle's world series ring after a break in.
blah blah blah.

Claim to INFAMY!!

[SA Friday]

Well, I wrote this:

http://www.airforcetimes.com/community/opinion/airforce_opinion_letters_070702/

I've been in a couple of AF base papers for exercises and LE actions that happened on the various bases. (Insert the 'spankin the monkey' emotacon here.)

I helped catch these guys too (not as much as the ATF and FBI, but I worked my ass off on the case), but didn't make the press release. Then again, who the hell knows who OSI is...[ROFL1]

http://www.justice.gov/usao/co/press_releases/archive/2006/January06/1_26_06.html

Helped the Marshals transport this punk ass bitch to Florence. OSI didn't make the papers again... [Tooth] But, in fairness, we did bring him in at 0230 through the base side of the airport to avoid the news vans camped out on the other side of the airstrip.

3. I opened for a puppet! (this is the one claim 2 fame I tell folks about) - "I opened for a PUPPET!"
(My band) Opened the show for Shotgun Red - the most famous redneck puppet of all time!
4. My music has been pumping out of the ionosphere since 1982 - so at the speed of sound ((((187,000Mph * (24hrs per day * 365.4 days per yr)) * 28yrs) = 45,917,625,600) has traveled 45 BILLION miles from the Earth!!!
5. Jammed on the same stage with Carlos Santana, Ronnie James Dio, Rudy Sarzo (all separate occasions) and some of the best friends a guy ever had.
6. Was priviledged to read the dedication to the troops, FD and PD on 9/12/01 for the local TV telecasts from Memorial Park.
7. Taught many folks to play and shoot.
8. Blessed with an incredible family and great number of wonderful friends.

1. My father is dead now (SGTMAJ S.E.Lee USMC Ret. <1952-1975>) - but he was my best friend in the world - and truly - that is my most treasured claim to fame I have.

I bought my first, and only so far, privately sold gun from Marlin when I first joined the site. I have another one that I just thought of but I really can't mention it on here.

Oh yeah, so far everyone on here has pretty cool stories.

[Bailey Guns]

What a great thread with some really interesting stories! I'm just kind of a nobody but have had some cool stuff (to me, anyway) happen in my life.

By far the biggest thing is (it didn't happen to me but it's probably the most proud I've ever felt in my life):

#1 - Was with my youngest son when he was told he'd won a Bronze Star w/Valor in the battle for Fallujah as an A1C.

Now for my mostly lame stuff:

-Married to my wonderful wife for 20 years
-Presented Meritorious Service Medal by Caspar Weinberger in 1983
-Several articles published in Denver Post re: police stuff
-Got sued for $16 Million by a little scumbag who lost big because he couldn't keep his lies straight
-Lots of other awards from Electronic Security Command and Air Weather Service and cop stuff

Thank your son for us for his service (and yours) to this great country! You must be VERY proud of him - as are we!

None of that stuff is lame at all.
*except for the lame scumbag!
Congrats on 20yrs married - I'm just passing 6mos. - you are a tough guy! (And that IS a claim to fame!)
I am trying to learn how to put my ego and desires aside for the joint tasks of married life - it takes more than I know. I'm trying.

[Bailey Guns]

Congrats on 20yrs married - I'm just passing 6mos.

Thanks! Being a newlywed is a wonderful thing. But, as long as you got the right one it just gets better with time. I usually tell people I married way above my pay grade...luckily she hasn't figured that out yet. Or maybe she has and just feels sorry for me!

[newracer]

Racing toy cars for bowling trophies was my old hobby. This picture has been in the Fort Collins Coloradoan twice, ones of those guys is me.

I was in the paper several times for football during my senior year of HS. Made first team all league and second team all state.

Was one of the first people in the country to have a CAT scan when I had spinal meningitis at the age of 4, I only had a 15-20&#37; chance of survival, I showed them!!!

[jake]

I'm a Freeman of the city of York, which is an honour passed down from father to son since the 14th century. It means I can graze my sheep on the common land in the city, and I could have been married here:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/northyorkshire/content/images/2007/11/06/minster_long_view_gallery_450x321.jpg

I've also written a book that was actually published, and I have sold more paintings in my life than van Gogh did in his.

[Circuits]

I won the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1984.

[RobertB]

I saved a guy's life once. His crazy pregnant wife had lost it, jumped on his back, and was strangling him. He didn't fight back under the "if your wife tells the MPs you hit her, you are guilty no questions asked" rule and had turned purple and fallen down before I pried her arms away from him. There's a point beyond which you can't keep saying to yourself "I soooo do not want to be here or be involved in this situation!" I moved back into the barracks the next day.

The M901 Improved TOW Vehicle that was on display (as of a few years back, dunno if it's still there) in front of 3rd Bde chow hall at Ft. Carson used to be mine, though my old roomate had it last before they museum-pieced it. :)

You can't find me in Google searches because the other guy with my name is (err...was) reasonably well known, and then a famous putz, so I can't have any claims to actual fame.

[iamhunter]

Hmmm lets see....

My mom's side of the family is English Royalty from the Montague line (of course this is of absolutely no benefit state-side. haha)...

When I was born I was given a gift by the princess of Russia who was a close friend of my.... Grandmother.

My grandmother was also a complete hippie, did LSD with Timothy Leary, and at one time had Che Guevera, among other controversial political figures, staying at her house.

My Grandfather was won of the founders of the original surfing movement in california, and maintains a friendship with Greg Knoll today.

I won the Nevada State speech meet when I was in 5th grade for memorizing the Declaration of Independence, and took 2nd the previous year for memorizing the Gettysburg Address.

My dad's side of the family is directly related to Eric the Red, a viking who is thought to be the first non-native to set foot in the Americas.

and aside from that,

I have a wonderful fiance, a good job, and I strive to make everyday better than the last.

[BigBear]

Claim to fame?....

Played with The Temptations, Ingrid Jensen, Harry Connick Jr., Marvin Stamm, and a bunch of other folks. But who ever looks for the trumpet player?! lol. "Chics dig high notes, dude!"

Won a .22lr national shooting competition waaaaay back in middle school.

Won state competitions in high school for music related stuff so I was in the newspaper quite a bit.

Broke every bone in my body in a car wreck junior year of high school. That was in the paper too. (And I still graduated on time!)

And biggest claim to fame is my last name! Direct relation... Well, if you were in TX you'd understand. HAHA.

Other than those... I'm just a regular joe who trys to stay out of the spot light.

[Batteriesnare]

I had the privilege to play the drums for Shania Twain for a song at the Pepsi center back in 2003.

I study with Allison Krauss's and Maynard Ferguson's (former, he died) drummer.

I shot competitive sporting clays in high school, getting as high as second at the state meet.

Recordings I've made have been broadcast world wide on radio, and locally on stations like 106.7.

[SU405]

So far if we are going by names which I have seen mentioned. I would say my claim is being a descendant of Juan de Ulibarri or his brother Antonio, not realy sure who.


I haven't had my chance to shine yet or had my 15 minutes. lol

Thanks for the reminder. My mom used to insure his wife before they were famous. She used to call in and make our office lady cry and would only be nice to my mom.

[BigBear]

Is that poster a joke or not? I thought "Dog" was a bounty hunter, not a fugitive... or was that pre-"turned my life around"?

[Irving]

Well, he was an international fugitive from Mexico for a while. However, some of the wording on the poster makes it seem fake.

[jake]

Thanks for the reminder. My mom used to insure his wife before they were famous. She used to call in and make our office lady cry and would only be nice to my mom.
Was she insured against overbalancing and falling forwards? She's a well built lady :D

He murdered someone, didn't he? That's why he carries pepper spray and paintball guns instead of firearms I think. It doesn't stop them from running around like mall ninjas though.

[Irving]

We used to insure her auto and she would get mad because we told her it needed to be insured as a business vehicle because she was using it to go repo cars with.

[Circuits]

Well, if we're going for fame by relation or association... I am eponymous with the foregoing Nobel Prize winner, but I'm a cousin of actor Johnny Depp, and my family used to own Commander's Palace restaurant in the quarter down in Nawlins.

[BigBear]

Interesting. I think Johnny Depp is a genuis. He can really play some great roles. I was in "Nawlins" for a week or two. Got to play some great stuff like in Preservation Hall with the house band and on the streets with Youngblood, and some other stuff. Good times.

[Dinosdeuce]

Although not a important as what most have posted:

I was the first one to jump into Invesco Field. The FAA wanted what we call a "Wind Dummy" ( their terminlogy was test jumper) to see if it was feasible with all the cables and what was my recommendation for wind limits into the stadium. Easy jump but they made more of a big deal than it was. It was just another jump for me.

[funkfool]

Let's see... We have trumpet, bone, sax, keys, drums... anyone play bass, lead guitar, vocal? I see a CO-AR15 Tower of Power band coming up! lol.
I have been playing bass for 30 years... and some guitar, mandolin and pretty much any stringed instrument...

The former currator at the Denver Museum of Natural History was C. Crockett, a direct decendent. I had a business relationship with him, he was a great guy to deal with.

For me:
1) Direct decendent of the Ottoman empire...Turkish.
2) Just got a patent approved, my 1st patent!

I was shot in a robbery at the Albertson's at Academy and Palmer Park while in HS in '87. They showed me on the 10:30 news being walked out by a paramedic on one arm and a cop on the other.

I milked that for all it was worth. Stayed out of school for about 3 weeks. Showed the scar to many girlies. :)

My cousin was on Dogs' show, and the house I grew up in was on it the other night, just in the backround though. I was on TV as a kid fishing at Huck Fin days, and again a couple times for school related stuff and some skateboarding stuff back in the day. I had one of the fastest street type drag race cars in the state a few years back, and won a race before it was fast. People that I don't know still come up to me and ask me about that car. Been on TV at The Mile High Nationals helping some friends in Comp. I got to hang out on the starting line with everybody who is anybody in the NHRA that year, that was pretty cool bsing with John and Ashley Force, Don Prudhomme, Tony Schumacher and his old man, and everybody else I met. And the one that really matters, I got into Front Sight shooting my Uzi 9mm in Hoser's steel match.

I went to Widefield. That was my junior year. Right after I went back to school after that, I got mono and was legitimately out for another month. Went back to school and they tod me I missed too much school to get credits that semester and they sent me home. I still graduated on time though.

[robsterclaw]

I remember that Albertsons thing - I grew up same neighborhood -over on Potter. Mitchell HS class of '82

Ya that neighborhood was really bad in the late 80's. A few months later I was told to stop a shoplifter and he started shooting at me and the others chasing him. Cops got him. He was wanted for felonies and that was why he was shooting at us.

Also appeared in Bass Player and Guitar Player magazine in an advertisement for Pedulla basses.
