Immaculata - You won't meet more of a fan friendlier person. Congrats on setting this up.
You've got that right. I randomly met him at the Vegas Expo and even though he was running late and his assistants were busting his ass to get moving to the UFC event (Rampage/Rashad) he stuck around taking pictures and shaking hands with every single person in line. Very nice dude!
I've got to admit though, imagining someone decked out in UFC clothes pissing themselves as they shake DW's hand is pretty lol-worthy
Why? Because he's a larger than life personality who plays a major role in my favorite sport. <img src="/images/phone/apple.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>
Haven't seen too much nervousness from fans meeting fighters/personalities. I have yet to meet an intimidating person in the fight business. Everyone from fighters to office staff to referees have been extremely approachable and laid back.
To everyone who has PM'ed me. If I havent gotten back to you yet its because Im working. Should be done with work in another 5hrs or so.
I will get back with every one of you so dont think Im ignoring you.
There has been a good response so far, because of that, I am going to work on a UG get together AFTER the weigh ins. Im working on some awesome special guests for that as well. I will make a separate post for that when I figure out where to hold it.
Be back in a few hours to answer emails and messages
In the mean time, what place inside Mandalay Bay is a good setting for an UG meet up spot after the weigh ins?
House of Blues? Ri Ra? Any suggestions?<br type="_moz" />
I wish I knew more about the hangout spots in MB. I have had a great meal at Stripsteak, but that is not even close to the type of venue a UG meetup should be in.
