it sounds like mike was with a lady, and probably a lady that fans of RLM would know, which the person is kindly keeping private

Either way, due to an insane set of circumstances, Mike sat literally right next to me at a bar. I was pretty drunk at this point and talking to someone I had just met, and I turned to my left and my brain genuinely broke. In my stupor, I asked "Mike??" and he turned and said "yes?"
At this point, I'm genuinely so confused and wondering if I've completely lost my mind, so I just said I wanted to make sure I'm not insane and apologized and tried to go back to the conversation with my new friend.
Mike was incredibly kind and asked what my name was and we got to talking briefly. He was extremely nice, said he was rarely ever stopped in public, and was nice enough to take a pic. I fanboyed pretty hard and was embarrassed by the whole ordeal. I said that it was the greatest day of my life and he said he hoped that wasn't true. The guy I was with was asking what Mike did and him and I looked at each other and Mike responded: "nothing important."
My new friend had all these nerdy tattoos (referring back to the circumstances I mentioned) which included a Star Wars tattoo so I was showing Mike his tattoos as a sort of joke. My friend had a Watchmen tattoo and it was surreal to hear Mike say "Dr. Manhattan" out loud.
This was the first "celebrity" encounter where I was genuinely flustered. If you are reading this Mike, thank you for being so cool!
Quote:That's awesome.
Was this Vegas? I only ask because other posters have said on here that when they've seen RLM out in the wild it was in Las Vegas.
Quote:Yes. It was. I was there for work and I asked him why he was there and he said it was for vacation. I don't like Vegas at all so I was perplexed. I asked if he gambled and he said he did sometimes. Even more perplexing.
Quote:I'm jealous. Did anyone else recognize him? I wonder if he's like a celeb in Milwaukee.
Quote:I asked him if he's ever stopped by "fanatics like me" and he said he's rarely ever stopped in public and also that I'm not a fanatic.
As I said, my default is responding with self-deprecating humor, and that mixed with alcohol made for an embarrassing encounter.

Quote:This really doesn't surprise me. They have twisted senses of humor but all the RLM guys come across as genuinely nice, regular ass people. They don't view themselves as "youtube stars" which I think has been pivotal from stopping them from jumping the shark. They also have shared very little about their personal lives which is extremely refreshing for internet personalities. Like I do not want or need to know those things lol.
Quote:Yes. They're extremely closed off with their personal lives which is why I feel like I shouldn't say who he was with particularly.
Quote:I'm sure it's a weird thing to have fans for your YouTube channel. And especially ones that post weird stuff in this subreddit.
They being said, if I met any of the guys, I'd only want to say I enjoy their stuff, and I hope they are still enjoying making it, as much as we are watching it. They seem like a good bunch.
Quote:Yes, the person Mike was with attested to the fact they were freaked out a little by his fans lol
