Claim to fame

I'm sure there are some of you that has a few claims. I think that everyone has at least one or two claims.

I'l start the ball rolling - not my best claim admitedly but meh. I used to work as a photographer for a local newsletter, and was covering an event with good old Gareth McAuley opening a home or shop or something. Anyway he had no idea what he was supposed to be doing so i managed to get talking to him, nobody really knew who he was at this event. Quite amusing really i don't know why people need 'Celebs' to open public places very shallow if you ask me. So we were talking on a sofa and this geeze sat next to us (not knowing who GM was) and started to say he was a forest fan and heard that GM was crap. Was fcuking hilarious when GM went to shake his hand and intriduce himself. BTW GM thought Josh Low was shit aswell - so it is universal.

We should rename this 'Lame Claims To Fame', because that's what most of them will be.

You cannot get much lamer than mine: I'm distantly related to Man Utd's youth team goal keeper. I've never met him and have never bothered to even find out what his name is

My great uncle (far left) was the man behind the escape from the Colditz POW camp in WW2. He also wrote the book in which the film was based on.

Not a lot of people know that.
