Dolph - first hand encounters

Postby dolphage on 19 Aug 2007, 11:43

The subject of meeting the big guy in real life has been touched upon but I thaught I´d make a thread about it.
Here´s as close as I´ve gotten...

All my brothers are huge Dolph fans too, so the following story was a big deal for us.
Last Mothers Day, while I was driving to my Mom´s, I called my kid brother (25 years old) to remind him to call her and congratulate her.
It was a sunday so we were both really hung over (we ARE swedish, after all), but he was all excited when I reached him. He went:
"Forget about Mother´s Day, guess who sat next to last night?"

So, my brother and his friends had decided to start the evening out by having a bite to eat while simultaniously getting wasted, so they had gone to this nice, quiet place (in Stockholm, where he lives). And as they were getting seated, and approached their table, they all realise that one of the guys sitting at the next table is... DOLPH FCKNG LUNDGREN!
And they all freeze up!
My brother told me that he had a complete mental breakdown and, as he had to squeeze by Dolph to get to his seat, they made eye contact and my brother went:
"Hey, how´s it going?"
And Dolph, kind of puzzled, said:
"Yeah... good."
And that was it.
My brother and his friends just sat down and went about their buisness.
No autographs.
No pictures.
He had tried to call me that night but my phone was off.
But that was the whole interaction with his life long hero!

So, while this automatically makes my brother my new idol, for sitting next to Dolph, it also makes him the biggest loser in the world for not even taking a picture with him and sending it to me.

Anyway, I asked his friends to corroborate the story and it checks out so at least he wasn´t hallucinating.

The closest I've gotten was sending a fan mail letter, and getting an autographed GR-13 photo out of it.

Which, by the way, was FREAKIN' AWESOME!

yeah, but when the letter came back to me, it had an address from Spain! (I don't know where it is, though).

Also, it took awhile to get back to me, because someone thought I lived in the States, even though my address on the letter said CANADA.

Still to get soemthing back would be fantastic, I sent mine off yesterday. Will keep you all posted and will try and upload it if I get one back.

Maybe thats a off topic thread but we could all try and scan in our autogrpahed photos. I already have one in a frame but its not to me direct.
