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?

Fun Lovin' CriminalsAbout 4 or 5 years ago the Fun Lovin' Criminals played the Aberdeen music hall - I didn't go see the gig but saw them at an aftershow party in a club down the road from the venue. I clocked Huey and started talking to him about Ice Hockey and stuff and offered to buy him a beer. He accepted and I went to the bar to buy two bottles of Becks. Upon my return his HUGE bouncer told me that Huey wasn't allowed to accept the drink as I could have put anything in it. I took offence to this and started on a rant which ended "...well fuck you big man! Huey, you just lost a fan."
I wasn't a huge fan anyway - the satisfaction of telling someone that's six foot cubed "fuck you" was immense - Huey looked a bit embarrased upon my departure.
