At my neighborhood gas station, I let him go infront of me in line and after he got done paying for his water and gas I asked for picture but he was on the phone and said "Awww hell no, I knew there was a catch to that" LOL! Damnit... I had to get a pic though couldn't pass the chance up so I snapped a pic of him filling up his Infiniti. Not the most welcoming player but I still love he's our running back. Dude is huge even without pads on. Max Unger is way more approachable haha

I know people have different opinions on this, and it doesn't change my opinion of him as a player, but what a dick.

I honestly didn't expect him to say yes based off my limited understanding of him as a person. But I was even wearing a BEAST MODE bracelet.

That's kind of messed up he could've been more polite. I met Robbie Tobeck, Marcus Trufant and Doug Baldwin they were all super cool.

Yeah, I'm not surprised to hear it, and like I said, still a huge Lynch fan as a player, but I expect players to be more accomodating to fans. IMO it's part of the job.

Meh. Ran into Ricky Watters at the airport when he was a Hawk player. Was low profile and cool.
Biggest a--clown tho was Jay Buhner. Even had a M's cap and just blew me off with rolling eyes and sh-t. He can take his truck and stick it.

I find it kind of disrespectful to even ask him. If I was a famous player I wouldn't want to be bugged getting gas. They don't get paid to be nice to people outside of work.

Met Jay Buhner at a Sonics game he was attending, dude chatted for a few minutes, signed my ticket, and was letting people come get his autograph all night during the game. Edit: Disagree with you Minne. As a public figure, I don't think it's out of bounds to politely ask, unless he's out with family, taking a piss, etc. I also don't think it's wrong to politely decline. Perhaps "sorry, but I really appreciate your support," instead of "aw hell no," and I'd be less irritated about it.

I'd prefer for our franchise RB to not use a cell phone while pumping gas though.

If it was me, I would have said; "nice run on Sunday, go get some Viking blood this Sunday, and man please talk to Mike Rob so he'll stop crying about it."

Spur of the moment fandom took over, maybe it was rude of me to ask, maybe not, but seeing one of the top players in the NFL in person I had to do something lol.

The bigger shock in all of this is you're still rocking an Aaron Curry sig

Why the hell does every Seahawk player have to be super nice and lovey dovey? Some are very nice, some aren't. Football players are no different than normal people. You got all types. Get over yourselves.
