I work in a major supermarket near Miami, and Olindo Mare of the Miami Dolphins (along with several other players), were being filmed by a news crew for a media event. Some of the cashiers and other workers were all excited, and started collecting autographs. Another girl came by, and said they were filming Olindo Mare, when suddenly, he walked past us. The cashier I was assisting yelled: "It's Alonzo Mourning, he used to play for the Buckeyes; I've just got to get his autograph"! I just stood there and looked at her funny. Even though I'm not a sports fan, I know that the two athletes look nothing alike, and have nothing to do with each other. What's up with that?

I could maybe understand if they're not big sports fans, but for Christs sake, Alonzo Mourning is 7 freaking feet tall... how the hell do you confuse him for a kicker???

I laugh about to this very day!!!!!!!!

he's definitely the main prevalent wrestler. very few non wrestling followers won't comprehend who Hulk Hogan is. Rock could probable be the subsequent so some distance as wrestling is going. yet maximum recognizable activities parent in history. i won't say that Hulk is extra recognizable then Micheal Jordan, Ali, Tyson or Tiger Woods. it may be thrilling to work out some archives on it. yet my intestine tells me Hogan falls wanting a minimum of two of those 4 i discussed.

That's hilarious. Alonzo Mourning is black and he used to play for the Hoyas by the way.
