Ok this might be a funny story

I was having lunch with a friend at the Farmer's Market in Los Angeles. 
And as we were wrapping up a couple people came up to me and asked if I would take a picture with them. 
I did. 
And then as we were getting up to leave, a man came out from one of the pastry counters and asked me, 
"Excuse me sir? Are you from Harry Potter?"

    Funny - you look nothing like Robbie Coltrane. Plus, he's 20+ years older than you.
    That's one more example of why I'd never say anything to a celebrity unless I knew exactly who they were.

    Great, next thing you know people will be writing to you asking for an autograph and saying they loved you in the Harry Potter series. LOL

    Are you sure you're not from Harry Potter? Are you 100% positive? Have you made test and all? Are you hiding something from us?

    You should play Hagrid's little brother!! Seriously, someone call J.K. and demand that she write you into the last movie. :-) Your Lost fans would love it!

    I heart Sirius tooooooooo! And Commissioner Gordon. :-)

    That is funny! I love Harry Potter. I'm such a geek, the movie is on my iPhone for when I am somewhere and bored lol. I'm really looking forward to checking out the new Lost episodes.
    Hope you had a great start to the new year.

    ok, that just proves that guy is not a real Harry Potter fan. You don't look like Hagrid.

    But that did make me LOL :)

  23. Derek BrinkJanuary 9, 2009 at 1:35 PM

    I think that when that happens, you should just say "Yes, that's me" and sign that guy's name as an autograph.

  24. MaryJanuary 9, 2009 at 2:06 PM

    No way. LOL
    I agree, you look nothing like Hagrid.
    You should have put on a super cheesy British accent and scribbled something completely indiscernible on his napkin. :P

    That's funny. You should have said yes and signed that dude's name. It is important to know for sure if the person is a celebrity before you say something. Great story though, lol!!

    Lol. Nope, I don't see any resemblance at all either. Not only should someone know their actors and filmography, but they might want to pay a visit to Lenscrafters as well. :)

    A very good example of someone who doesn't think before they speak, or has no idea what he is talking about. Either way- funny.

    I loved it! Thanks for the laugh this morning. I'm just so glad, to have found this place. I love the show, been watching it faithful since day one. I really loved your version of what happened to your other mother. I woke up the husband just so he could hear your version.
    That part is true, and we shouldn't of lied mom. I, also, loved Cheech telling Jack to do him a favor when this is all over to leave my son alone. Hope you don't mind everything in one post.

    Classic. Because the best way to ingratiate yourself is to consider a fictitious half-giant as a possibility.

    "You look taller on TV."

    And now I'm going to make it worse: We watched Three Amigos tonight, and the first things my boyfriend says is, "Hey look, Hurley's dad is tending bar."

    And I said, "What? Is Cheech in this? I don't remember that."

    The kids were so annoyed when we finished every line with "Dude."

    With Hagrid I just thought it's only the hair, though yours is much neater. With Rolf I thought "Oh, cute!" I loved the muppets. Don't hate me dude!
