had the similar incident with Kid Rock, i didn't recognise him when he ordered something, didn't give his number to call when it was ready, and when i asked for his name, he just looked and asked, "don't you recognise me?", "no", "I'm Kid Rock", "oh ok" i wrote it down, thought for a second, "hey, aren't you that musician?", when he responded yes, i replied, "your order will be ready next week, thanks". I think he was insulted that one, i didn't recognise him, and two, i didn't care.
Nope. He's was always complaining about the publicity and how people bother him for autographs anywhere he goes. He probably just got curious meeting someone that didn't know or care who the fuck he was.
When I worked in the ER, we had an NBA player come in. Most hospitals now have protocols about confirming name and date of birth and requiring signatures and explanations before so much as an aspirin. So I'm helping him get to MRI, going over his info and giving him instruction, and he's being a huge dick, not wanting to go through the protocol. I finish what I need to do and ask if he has any questions. "You do know who I am, right?" I responded with "I do." He seemed hurt.
A few weeks later we had one of his teammates come in. So nice, very friendly and very respectful. The contrast in attitude was interesting.
