What is something that actually happened to you but no one believes?

[[[global:former-user]]]

Hey all, Thought I'd post something a little light hearted.

My true story that no one believes takes place in 2014 at The Velvet Margarita Cantina in Hollywood. It was Toxic Tuesdays and I was there with a group of friends to celebrate one of our friends birthday. So were having drinks and shooting the shit and all random Andy Dick walks in and close behind him is some guy, and I don't know if Andy Dick was drunk or high, but he was being extra and his friend looked annoyed. It seemed like he was following Andy trying to keep him from getting into trouble.

Anyway as we're walking in from the patio Andy Dick notices my friend, the birthday boy, Andy touches his own chest and says "Well well, who's this.?" my friend ignores Andy and continues inside as Andy's friend motions for Andy to continue walking. But at this point Andy is staring at my friend with a mesmerized smile on his face. Anyway, we go inside and get more drinks.

FAST FORWARD to a few drinks later and my bladder is about to explode and there is a line for the women's restroom. I tell the birthday boy I cant hold it and if he could go with me into the mens restroom, which he agrees. well we go into the mens room and who should be in there? Andy Dick, and he's without his friend. Andy makes a wise crack at me for using the mens room and as im walking past him to get to the toilet he ever so casually grouped my friend, but he did it in a way that was like playful and funny but then it turned sexual. My friend pushes Andy away and tells him to back off, thats when Andy's friend walks in and escorts him. He tells him its time to go. We didn't see Andy Dick after we got out of the restroom, BUT the following day we find out that Andy's night didn't end their. He ended up getting arrested for stealing some guys necklace off Hollywood Blvd.

Ive told this story to friends that weren't their that night and they've found it hard to believe. But the birthday boy and our other friends can tell you it really happened.

here's a link to the report of Andy Dick getting arrested for theft

SO whats your something that actually happened to you but no one believes?

@TagUjjwal mine is that I've played poker with van Morrison Lindsey. About 18 years ago.it must be, working in a restaurant in Bath, England. A bunch of us chefs are having a drink.after our shift and he'd been eating in the restaurant (the pump rooms) and got in tow.with us. He ended up.coming back to my friend's place with us to play cards. He was drunk on whisky and was rude and obnoxious, nobody liked him. I was gutted as I've always been a fan of his music, I'd seen him live a couple of times and had a bunch of his records. That saying about never meet your heroes turned out to be true. Although i also met Pete Docherty from the libertines (also in Bath) and he was a.really nice guy. He was very drunk too, him and his friends couldn't find their car in this huge carpark in the dark and wanted to buy me and my girlfriend's car lol

@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.

I met a lot of peoples in irl wich are musicans or wich are stars
but it is because of my job so it's nothing wich is unbelivable
peoples won't believe me i that i am still alive after my neck broke when i was 14 y old ~
I mean it's hard to believe that i surrived it without many things being left exept a scar

[NathanOnFire]

@Lindsey That's a crazy story. I've heard that Andy Dick is supposed to be a total nutjob, so I think that you and your friend got lucky that he didn't try to do anything else to you

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.

Just today, my workmates ganged up on me three against one, because I told how I'd walked around THE Devizes White Horse. THERE IS NO WHITE HORSE AT DEVIZES, they say. But there is. I WALKED ACROSS HIS FACE LIKE A MAN WALKING ACROSS THE FACE OF A GOD.

Not as impressive as the Andy Dick story, admittedly. I always felt sorry for that guy. He seems to work doubly as hard as his contemporaries like Tom Green and Gilbert Gottfired, yet they seem twice as famous. Nay justice.

Jesus christ how many gay bathroom stories does andy dick have?

[Scottish]

@Matt_Aranha to continue the boxing theme about 5 years ago i cooked for Nigel Benn (I'm a chef, it wasn't a romantic date lol). Also for Patrick Kluivert's son when the dutch under 16 team were staying at the hotel. When i lived in Bristol it was quite normal to bump into members of massive attack in certain pubs and clubs. I also went to the same youth club as tricky and roni size. I believe they both help out financially as they learned their trade there. They'd be in the studio doing their production stuff, I'd be in the rehearsal room with my very bad thrash metal band (Blind Zippy lol)

Tell me about it. I used to see 3D so often that I kept a single of Unfinished Sympathy in my coat, and got him to sign it.

Impressed that Roni Size went to a youth club, tho. That must've been one cacophonous youth club.

@Indrid-Cold that would have been 10 or 12 years before reprazent happened Indrid, don't think jungle had even happened at that point. Onky was on nodding terms with him though and tricky just used to scowl at everyone. Good days though

[Indrid Cold]

@Scottish NICE. I always just picture Tricky with a massive plume of smoke coming out of his mouth ala that album cover. That's the way to live.

@Lindsey Met David ( fringing ) Bowie ....Underage thrown out of the Club Montreal,umm why I was in there underage a whole different story. So now outside on a side street behind the Club trying to stay warm and bumming smokes , yeah bad but very short-lived habit when out the side door DAVID FRIGING BOWIE walks out, I didn't recognize him at first just asked to bum a smoke he flips out half a pack and said " Here ya go Luv" I been saying " Luv " ever since. I looked up as he spoke and all I could say was " It's It's you, oh wow" He looked back at his friend and told him, give her a few and back at me and said" find a warm place Luv" they walked on I looked at what was pressed in my hand. $50 and a pass to the recording studio down the road where He was recording.
Did I go? No people, I sold the pass it was hard times at the time. Today looking back .........................I should of went.

[Scottish]

@Ladydoall30 fucking hell luv, i am so jealous! When was this? Just wondering what album he would have been recording. Damn, that one takes some topping!

[WHAT2020]

@Matt_Aranha wow cool Not the funeral part but u know what I mean

[pardis2001]

My teacher molested me last year for two months and I couldn't tell anyone about it. I was afraid If my mom knows she would think I am the one who has done something wrong while I was like always quiet and shy and I think that's why he chose me. ughhhhhhhh when I think about it I feel terrible. I even didn't go to school for 2 weeks because I was afraid to see him. everyone thinks I have seduced him or something but I HAVEN'T. he is sick. Isn't he???
