Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

After the Melbourne Test match in the last ashesseries I had been drinking heavily all throughout the 4th day. Late into the night England player Michael Vaughan was spotted in the pub. As Vaughan is a celebrity Sheffield Wednesday fan and therefore sworn enemy of Sheffield United fans I decided to go and have a chat.
I walked up to him and politly asked if he could do me a favour. Sure he says probably expecting me to ask for an autograph. I took my jumper off to reveal a Sheffield United Shirt got hold of the badge and told him to 'kiss this you Wednesday bastard'.
On reflection it was probably a bit harsh on Englands premier batsman, but he took it extremly well and I was very very drunk.
