I once delivered to Richard Burgi when he was staying in Vancouver filming 'The Sentinel', now most noted for his part in Desperate Housewives. I've delivered to several hockey players on the Canucks team as well. I ran across James Avery (the father of 'Fresh Prince') in a hotel one time.

Met R Lee Emery (tv's MAIL CALL drill sargent) on board the USS Missouri in Hawaii last winter. This was after I retired but it was still fun. He even made my wife take 2 pictures of us to make sure one tured out.

I've got a few here.....the famous porn actress Vanessa Del Rio (lived in Brooklyn when I started at UPS), some NY Rangers--Mike Gartner, Darren Turcotte, Alexi Karpotsev, Alexi Kovalev, Joey Kocur, and former NY Met/NY Yankee Darryl Strawberry..........most of them were very friendly.

I met Dale Earnhart several years ago as he picked up his airplane from a refurbisher I used to deliver. I also met F. Lee Baily there.

Ben Hill Griffin Stadium is in Gainesville, Fl. Mr. Griffin owns a business here in town and is often seen there.

Pat Borders ( former MVP World Series) lives on some split delivery work. He is a great guy, down to earth.

Did Naslund bitch and moan about the dog-ear on the envelope he received? Did Bertuzzi club you from behind as you walked away after collecting $3 in GST and $25 in brokerage? Did Ruutu horrify you with his ugliness, clumsiness, and uselessness?

Chinstrap · 10-21-2006, 08:39 AM

Last year after the NBA championship, I had an undeliverable envelope come across my ECs station addressed to

Tim Duncan
211 Spurs Suck LN
San Antonio, TX 78209

Obviously not a legit package. I could not undersatand why someone would bother paying the NDA prices for such a lame joke.

Idiots....!:confused1
