What's your claim to fame? *lighthearted*

[BadlyDrawnSimpsonsCharacter]

Inspired by an article I've just read online whilst waiting for my train, AIBU to ask...what is your claim to fame? The weaker the claim the funnier, such as "I dated Margaret Thatcher's cousins drama tutor" e.g. But any will do.

I'll go first. I served Gary Cahill (footballer) once as a waitress; he came into the budget restaurant I worked at...and didn't even foot the bill!

A bit of a silly post I know, but the article I read had me giggling. If this post makes at least one person giggle that would be great - I think we're all in need of a laugh right now!

I keep thinking of more...

@ImNotWhoYouThinkIam ooo how did Kate react to the flashing?

I sat behind Vanilla Ice in the audience for Mary Poppins. He was freaking because his little girl had just shaved her eyebrow off to look like him, and his wife was worried paps would take a pic!
