Whooliganism Spotted: Who, what, where, when
posted on February 28th, 2008
Living and working around Hollywood your chances of spotting a celebrity automatically increase. Just last week I saw Kathleen Robertson and Heidi Klum while having lunch. Sometimes the best part of celebrity spotting isn’t the actual sighting, it’s reporting back to your family and friends who you saw. The following paragraph, written in Hollywood-speak, details my recent celebrity encounters.
“It was a double dose of celebrity fun at 25 Degrees this afternoon. Shortly after being seated in the far back booth for lunch, my friends and I spotted Kathleen Robertson of 90210 fame. Looking pretty and casually dressed, she ate with an older couple. Service for our meal was a little on the slow side (per usual), until it came time to pay the check and have our plates cleared. It was then we were informed that Heidi Klum needed a table — our table. We barely had a chance get up and walk away before Heidi and her entourage took over. She was shorter than I imagined; let’s say 5′8″.”
Unfortunately, I have yet to run across anyone from Samantha Who?, but the idea of celebrity sightings got me thinking and I figured it would be fun to adapt the concept for our SamanthaWho.org community.
It’s obviously easier for someone in Hollywood to spot Christina Applegate or Barry Watson at the local gas station than for someone in the mid-west or even half-way around the world. That’s where our adpated rules come in. To participate in ‘Whooliganism Spotted: Who, what, where, when’ all you have to do is share your Whooliganism sightings (whatever they may be). No in-person celebrity encounter required.
For example, I saw Christina on the cover of MediZine’s Healthy Living while getting my taxes done recently and snapped a photo with my camera phone. There you have it, ‘Whooliganism Spotted’ is born! The possibilities are endless. Drive by a Samantha Who? billboard? Take a photo. Find yourself having a Samantha-like moment? Write it down and send it in. ‘Whooliganism Spotted’ is open to everything and anything Samantha Who? related. Share your Whooliganism experiences with fellow Whooligans and let the good times roll.

wow, this is a cool idea. Even though no one here know about SW and people like Christina and Barry are just “those people from Married with children and 7th Heaven” it still seems really fun

Great idea Heidi! Can I take pics of my 7th Heaven DVDS, would that count?

Melissa, absolutely! In fact, if you can get me your photos in the next week or so, I’ll go ahead and post all the ‘Whooliganism Spotted’ entries I have at once.
Thank you.

An interesting discussion is well worth comment. I think that you ought to publish far more on this subject, it may not be a taboo subject but typically individuals are not sufficient to converse on these kinds of topics. To the next. Cheers
