Meeting a contestant?

Well, apparently I came within a few thousand feet of Cealey and didn't even know it until about 12 hours later.

Hypothetically...

You're out in public. You see someone across the way. You absolutely know they were on the show...no doubt about it.

How do you handle it?

Hmm...that depends.

If they're busy, I just let them get along with their day. I wouldn't want to disturb them.

If they're not, I would go up to them and tell them I saw them on TV once. The trick is to not go to hard when I do talk to them (especially if they're not as friendly towards Endurance as others), but once I get the okay, I'll just say hi and make it quick.

Unless it's Taylor from E5, at which I just hold onto her tight and say "thank you!"

Good point. It definitely depends who the person is and what they're doing. I've talked to a few online...and was in the same general area as Cealey as I mentioned above.

I once knew someone...who knew someone...who either was Reece or knew Reece.

But that's all I got. Never have I met one.

I’ve never met one but I do live in the same city as Adrian and we have a few mutual friends. I’ve honestly thought about what I would say if I ever met him. I’d probably be really casual like, “Hey, not to be weird… but were you on Endurance?” (Pretending that I don’t know FOR SURE that he was lol). I also have the Endurance logo tattooed on my wrist so I would point to that and hopefully make his/whoever’s day. Or they’d just think I’m a big ole weirdo.
