Most of the GAA lads are dead on too many to mention.
I've met a few of the good golfers in the past. Soundest of the lot were Paul Azinger, Tom Lehman & Ernie Els. Gents every one of them.

Roy Keane without a doubt, in Turners Cross the day before the Sunderland/City game. He arranged to let a few of the Ballincollig Special Olympics Kids in to their closed training session and signed as many autographs/jerseys/books as they wanted as well as Photo's. He hung around afterwards until all the kids were happy with what they had. He encouraged his own players as well to let the kids take a few penalties with them as well. It was absolutely brilliant.

Met Steve Davis a few times. Nice bloke and very down to earth. Also met Michael Jordan. Took the time to speak to a few of us.
Biggest asshole was Ian Rush. Prick of a man.

Serious? Where did you bump into him? I was delighted to have touched something he did, never mind meet the guy!
All the Waterford team are sound out! Hilarious as well after a few pints! They were all langers down in Ardmore one night! No Mullane so it was alright! :p
Tom Kenny, another sound fella! Padraig Harrington too!

Serious though. Met him in his restaraunt in Chicago in 97.
Steve Bruce and Lee Sharpe.
...back in the early 90's they used to come over to a few events for the Cork branch of the United supporters clubs and summer soccer schools etc. both top lads. I've pictures of them playing hurling in some field outside Cork, ..Sharpey with a Cork City jersey on.
On another occasion in 93 Sharpe was in Cork on the evening of his 21st and the occassion was marked in Clancys, ..followed by SideTrax I think. I couldn't get in as the doors were saying 23's and I was 21 ....Sharpe was also 21 but he got in... sweet.
Dinny Irwin is a top man on similar occassions as well.
Giovanni Trappatoni was a pure gent on encounter as well, a legend and a gentleman.
Cunts were Winterburn and Dixon at Turners Cross after the epic 4-2 B match pre Euro 88. Refused point blank to sign an autograph I was looking for my Arsenal supporting sister, even though they were strolling to the team bus with no one about and I just happened to be there. I knew already Winterburn was a cunt buit that confirmed it.
