@Lindsey I met boxer Amir Khan in San Francisco California. At the time, I wasn’t really into boxing so I didn’t know who he was, but my friends did and they started talking to him and taking pictures with him and Amir Khan was totally fine with it. I refused to take a picture with him because I still didn’t know who he was until I told my friends at school that I met someone named Amir Khan. They turned animated and were like “NO WAY U MET AMIR KHAN?!?!?!” I said yah but they didn’t believe me, and I regretted not taking a picture with him ever since. After that encounter with him I started to watch boxing a little more, even a few of his fights and he was pretty good so at that point I really regretted refusing to take a picture with him. 😅😂
Okay now that is a little uncanny! I've met several famous people for various reasons over the years but didn't think many of them were exciting enough to comment, reading your story though I thought it was a bit coincidental so I'm going to share this one. Not unbelievable but about the same person.
We had a family friend who died of cancer many years ago. She was also a neighbour, and my mum used to childmind her youngest daughter. I used to help sometimes, and if my mum was somehow unavailable I'd maybe take her to school. Her elder sister was also at the same school, and when this elder sister was older she entered into a relationship for some years with one of Amir Khan's trainers (not his head trainer, before anybody asks). Sound guy. Through him Amir knew the family, and when our family friend passed away he came to pay his respects at the funeral with the rest of us.
