Fan boy....
Absolutely.
100%
But respectful. Most I'll do is say "get 'em fellas" as we walk past.

You could be a true fan and offer to cover their bill.
You know, perhaps for some future considerations

Never watched that whole movie
When the Hawkeye wrestling facilities were getting remodeled, they had to train in the Field House for a season. My office is in that building, and I sometimes use the locker room to shower after I bike to work. So, I have showered with the Brandses.
My favorite story from that time was changing over by my locker and eavesdropping on a conversation taking place over on the other side, involving the Brandses. I hear this guy giving THEM advice on how they should be handling their business. I think to myself, "What jackass has the balls to tell the Brands how to coach wrestling?" On my way out, I glance over there to see who they were talking to: Dan Gable.

Post of the year Nominee
The only part we snooped on was what they ordered. Duenker's pregame diet ritual is already out there.
That and their discussion on which Star Wars video game was best. Which really warmed my heart as a Star Wars guy.
I just heard a podcast with Molly Ringwald where she talked about how she can tell how people hold their phones when they're trying to sneak pictures. So, I didn't bother. My wife did...to my chagrin.
I simply said "go get em fellas and we have a lottery of fun watching you play" as we walked by them.
Keith Hernandez was once having lunch at a diet bar in St. Louis in the early 90s. We were the only other ones there. We didn't bug him, but when I walked past him to go to the bathroom I muttered "That was one magic loogie." When I got back from the john, he had sent over a pitcher of beer to our table.
I brought that up. Til my kid pointed out there was probably over a million bucks of NIL money sitting at their table, whereas I...I don't make that kind of money.
