Any new airport meetings with fighters?

[mjfan23]

It feels like it’s been forever since a sherdogger shared actual fighter meeting stories. Bj penn still flies! why hasn’t anyone met him at the airport?

Please share your fighter interaction stories.


My contribution: a few years ago I grappled with Joe Rogan and subbed him (I had no prior JJ experience)

we grappled (shook hands) he tapped (me on the shoulder) out, took the L and went on autograph signing.

Everyone is wearing a mask in an airport. Good luck recognizing a fighter.

I dream of the day where I can create a thread that I met BJ Penn and everyone (who isn't a noob) will come in smirking and hoping if the meeting was at the airport.
If not, I would not only be shooped out of my mind, but also the meeting wouldn't be acknowledged as having a full BJ Penn expierience.
Thus, I would obviously only post if I met him at the airport.
Lucky those who are able to pull that off.

Met Bisping a few months ago at work. He was kinda drunk and man he loves to talk. Nice guy though.

I actually met Scott Coker in the airport in San Diego the night after a Strikeforce event. He couldn't have been nicer! We took a pic (on an old phone so don't ask) and he gave me his biz card and said to email him for a shirt. I did and his assistant sent me a whole box with a hoodie, gloves, and I can't even remember what else. I love him for that!
