Yeah, we googled em. Pretty legit. We're as surprised as you. It kind of makes sense, if you consider how long people have been around, and all the things we've done, that someone would've thought to enlist a bear in the military or that multiple people would have died in a literal whiskey flood. History is crazy.

People are embarrassing, they make dumb mistakes, and they actively do crappy things with prodigiously low levels of self awareness. Luckily for everyone else, they document all of it. For some more jaw dropping cringey-ness, check this out.

Or, they end up being an outstanding individual of tremendous character, that leaves you that much more inspired. These fans got lucky with their celebrity encounters!
