Do You Ever Write To Your Favorite People?


Someone asked weeks if ago if we met our hero, etc... But have you ever called or e-mailed someone (and knew it was the actual person?).

reply

No, never
I've even bumped into a few celebrities and not said anything to them
I feel like famous people (stars, athletes, whatever...) probably don't want to be bothered by some random jerk that likes them so I dont bug them
If I was famous I'd prefer to be left alone so I get it

Yeah I did once. I used to travel to watch motocross races. I didn’t know much of anything about this sport when I started out, I just loved the scene. The second race I ever attended was Buds Creek, MD and this one rider caught my eye. He rode with a style unlike the rest, had cool af gear, and was fearless. I actually called his number after that race (he was unknown and still listed) and I told him how impressed I was. He was super sweet and even invited me to his next race. I didn’t go, but I followed his standings over the years. He turned into a huge arenacross star. He ended up having a really bad wreck and had to have his leg amputated. Even after the amputation he raced.😍 My hero. I wrote him a letter and wished him well and let him know how impressive I thought he was. I’m not one to get starstruck, but man, this kid was the coolest.

No, although I've been tempted from time to time.

I wrote to Ray Carney years ago, and then again a month ago, he responded and we had some conversation.

Never heard of him until just now. I googled him, and he seems like an egghead to me.

I don't have a hero, but I have had a minor temptation to start up a Twitter account to write to Seth MacFarlane about story ideas for "The Orville." However, my aversion to social media like that prevents me from doing so.
