One Christmas Eve many years ago, the wife and I(at the time it was my girlfriend)were at a blockbuster getting a movie to watch. Who was there buying at least 50 videos? Deion Sanders.
This was back when Deion, Troy and Moose all lived in willow bend in Plano(also Shawn Bradley, who, when I was working at the target there came in and I had to hook him up with a cake(I worked in the bakery) and boy was that man tall as all get out, and a couple Dallas Stars too)
Several years previous to that I had a weird two days:
Day one- driving to work and was about to be at the stop sign to the main road in my neighborhood. You can't really see to much on the main road as there are bushes and walls blocking the view. So what happens? Troy Aikman comes running across the intersection, not stopping whatsoever, so I had to slam on my brakes to avoid running him over.
Day two-the very next morning, I'm on way to work again, this time driving down the main road. Well Deion lived on that road, and as I was approaching his house(couldn't miss it, had 24 inch gold letters on the gate that said prime time) I notice a man in his driveway. As I approach closer, the man walks out into the middle of the road and I had to swerve to avoid hitting him as he looked a little confused... that man? Deion Sanders.
Living in that neighborhood, I got to regularly see Moose walking his dog without a leash(the dog stayed right by him. Great dog) while drinking a beer. Yes they were definitely beers because I couldn't get over the fact that he was always drinking crap beer.
Edit: I also saw Bradie James a couple years ago at a Costco. He was begging his wife to get the three-ply. It was awesome. I also was once a custom home builder, and we built Keyshawn Johnsons house that he lived in here in Dallas. Met him several times. He loved talkin about the house he was having built in California. I was at his house the day we cut him to sign TO. He was pissed off when he got home. I thanked him for all his hard work for us and that as fans we loved him because he does everything a wr should do, and we despise TO. Hopefully I did right by Cowboys fandom.
