E3 2002 - Part4
By: Aaron Thomas

There are lots of famous type people at E3. Granted, very few of them want to associate with gamers, and even fewer still want to hang out with videogame writers, but sometimes we trick them. This is where you can check out pictures of celebs that Ive met or seen at the show.

Victim #1: Dante Culpepper, quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings
How I bagged him: Dante was relatively safe because he was up on stage playing Madden, but that didnt stop me from hopping out of his seat and running up to the stage to snag his picture.
Bonus Story! After leaving the event, I was driving and almost ran over Dante as he tried to get into his limo.


Victim #2: Jerry "The King" Lawler, Wrestler and WWE announcer
How I bagged him: Jerry was foolish enough to appear and sign autographs for us gaming schmucks. It was as simple as waiting in line and getting a booth babe to snap a picture.



Victim #3: Shigeru Miyamoto
How I bagged him: Miyamoto actually walked through the crowd to get on stage,risking life and limb as he passed through throngs of adoring fanboys, and within five feet of me which is way too close. He managed to emerge unscathed and celebrated this accomplishment by playing Mario and Zelda with a wavebird controller.
