that's really cool! how was your experience with Alice Cooper? I've also met him.

Permalink Reply by Steve on June 8, 2011 at 3:38pm

Alice was great.  I met him when the Super Bowl was here in the '90's.  he was playing in one of the celebrity golf tournaments and there weren't many people following him.  As far as athletes, I only seek out Hall of Fame players, but most people were chasing current players all over the course.  This left Alice with only about 4 of us around him.  I didn't expect him to be there, or else I would have brought an album for him to sign.  I ended up getting him on a golf ball.  He was very cordial and took time to talk to everyone there.  I would love to get the chance again so I can get an album signed.  I live in the Phoenix area and he is always out and about, but I have never had the opportunity again.

thank u so much for sharing that awesome experience! yeah he lives in Pheonix, in fact i sent a pic of when i met him (a pic of him & me) and i sent it to his HOME address with a prepaid postage envelope selfaddressed, etc. and he never replied back :(

  but in person he has always been kind to me.

  P.S. I have a buddy of mine who is friends with Kurt Warner. are you a fan of his?
