Well in Miami we see things that would make Q-reese burn his eyes , like girls sunbating topless is a very common sight at south beach , players at the sony erickson walk around in between the crowds , I had Federer walk passed right next to me and some people rushed to follow him , but didn't do anything more , he had 1 female cop following him and his hitting partner carrying his bags , when he got to the court he was really a small fence away and altough people were taking pictures and stuff there really wasn't any disrespect or anything .

Nadal was sighted inside a gift shop just walking around looking at the merchandise before he got bum rushed by tons of pre-teens and teen boys and girls for authographs .

Just 1 month ago I saw andy murray eating at Brickle street's Novecentos with his brother and some other people just chilling ,and no one rushed him for authographs .

What can I say ,Miami is special , I've seen more celebrities in Miami walking around than I ever did on L.A.

My mother-in-law lives in Miami Beach. I am there a LOT! :P 8) In fact I'll be there end of September beginning of October for 2 weeks.

At US Open, some players are able to walk around without people hovering on them. But surely Nadal, Fed, Murray, Djoker etc....will not be just walking around.

Nadal tried to have a run thru the grounds on first day of tournament. Well, it started well, him running alone, but withing about 5 seconds......we had a stampede running with him, people that usually don't run, or don't look like they are capable of running....they were running with cameras and taking photos. He was not seen running since :lol:

I've lived 20 minutes from Hollywood/Downtown Los Angeles my whole life, and I've never seen a celebrity here :lol:

I **** you not, McCauly Culkin rode a skateboard right past me in NYC, outside of Central Park...that wouldn't be that crazy really, but the crazy part is, it was directly in front of the Plaza Hotel!! Hahaha. If you've seen the Home Alone movies I'm sure you know the signifigance of the Plaza Hotel. It was like I was hallucinating or something. I was kind of stunned for a second and yelled "CHEESE PIZZA"! at him. 10 minutes later, I saw John Lithgow at a restaraunt. So in 10 minutes, I saw more celebrities in NYC than I've ever seen in LA.

Anyways...
