Got a cool photo with a sports star you want to share. What was your side of the story? Where did you meet? How was the celeb encounter?

Muhammad Ali came to Toronto during November, 2003 for a special presentation at the Argos game. He was incredibly nice to greet and meet fans and signed tons of autographs during that special day. It is a meeting with a Legend I won’t ever forget.
I met Sid the kid when he was still in Junior at the World Junior Championship training camp in Kitchener, Ontario. It was cool of Sidney to sign autographs for everyone and take this photo with me. I remember watching him skate during practice and thinking “this kid is special”, I never even imagined how right I’d be.
The time I meet Shaq was really cool, it was the middle of winter and as you can see by Shaq’s outfit, he was dressed to the occasion.
Shaq was still a member of the LA Lakers at the time of the picture, he was at the four seasons hotel getting ready for his game against the Toronto Raptors.
The Lakers went on to win the NBA Championship that year, I also got to meet Kobe Bryant that night, it was awesome.
Hey PoPvine Folks!! This is from the time I had the privilege of meeting the great Maple Leaf Johnny Bower, former CFL star Russ Jackson, and Olympic medel winner Bruce Kidd…..
