I guess this isn't so much weird as cool. My only experience ever meeting a pro was when I was in Madison, WI drunk as a skunk, lost my phone after a Devin the Dude concert. Walking up and down State Street. I had also lost my friend who I'd gone to the show with and whose place I had planned to crash at.
Stopping in a small diner on State Street I recognized who I thought was Tyrone Olsen (from Madison like Dave Mayhew, Aaron Snyder) sitting and chatting over coffee with a big group of friends.
Being the drunk kook that was back then just barged in, confirmed who he was, proceeded to effusively praise his Evol Stil Life part and then just kind of hung out listening to his crew bs and trade stories on that Friday or Saturday night or whatever it was.
I ended up crashing at a Motel and never found my friend until the next day but it was really cool to meet someone I had looked up to and studied so much footage from, and see that dude was a real down to earth person. Tyrone wherever ya are... sorry about crashing your group of homies and thanks for talking the time to talk to a fan and bum a cig.
PS: He also told me something hilarious (in retrospect) about Hosoi's airport infamous bust that involves LSD.. but I don't think I'm at liberty to go there.
