You Haven’t Lived Until You’ve Seen Terry Fator On Motorized Luggage
It is funny the random places you’ll see celebrities. I’ve seen Mike Tyson, Flavor Flav and Dana White at Piero’s, sat next to George Maloof at Meraki, and stood next to former Laker Rick Fox on a monorail ride on the strip… but this story is by far the greatest sighting ever.
My family and I visit Boston regularly to see family, and we were headed back to Vegas on the famous JetBlue 777 (such a cool flight number by the way). While we are waiting at the gate, I see a guy zip by, sitting on a piece of motorized luggage that he is steering through the concourse, wearing a Barstool Sports “Roger Goodell Clown ” shirt. Whoever this guy is is a legend, and I need to know him.
“Did you see that?” I asked my wife… we looked over and were just laughing at how much this guy was living his best life, but didn’t think much beyond that.
It’s time to board. He boarded first with his partner, then us… and we just happen to sit right behind them. This man then whips out his Nintendo Switch and starts playing. I am sitting with my two kids, incredibly jealous of the person in front of me that won’t have to try to keep two toddlers calm for the flight.
Then I heard him talk.
“TERRY?!”
He turns around… “Shawn?!”
It was Terry Fator. I had interviewed the Mirage turned New York New York star several times at that point and we had a pretty friendly thing going. “What the hell are you doing here?!” Big laughs, so funny.
Terry is one of the nicest dudes out there, and a total nerd – which I appreciate greatly. He is living the life from the kid in “Blank Check” and I am totally envious.
