I was on TV for my old band's stuff multiple times. The most recent time was when a dead body was found outside the restaurant I manage. Saw the camera getting set, so I posted up.

yeah, in the audience at wrestling, and i will be again soon. i get good tickets so i can be seen. next time im gonna bring a sign with the unabomber manifesto on it oh also on the news a couple times - one time, i was in the background when a reporter-in-the-field came to my block when there was a microburst that knocked down a bunch of trees and poo poo, i grabbed a rake and ran over to pretend to rake up the yard behind the reporter. and the first time, when Magic cards were getting popular, I think must have been either 1994 or 1995, they came to my school, and interviewed some of the nerdy kids about it. We couldn't reach my parents to get their consent to show me on TV, so there's no clip of me, but the over-the-shoulder graphic was my hands holding some cards.

I have been on TV several times in my life for various things. Once I lost a MMA fight on HDNet, not in spectacular fashion or anything...I just got wrestled on (bc my wrestling wasn't great) and lost by decision. I had good enough jiu jitsu to keep him from getting in positions to do any real damage and the whole fight was lame as hell to watch..I'm pretty sure there were boos in the crowd at points. Also if I remember correctly I had eaten an entire box of fiber one bars earlier that day (post weight cut will do that do ya) and felt like I was going to poo poo myself the entire time JamMaster Flash fucked around with this message at 04:20 on Feb 4, 2024 |

Dixville posted:Does anyone even still watch tv? I'm in a popular retirement area so I think the people around here do. Anyway I'm supposed to be on a tv commercial and we're filming on Monday. I'm a little nervous about it. It will probably be fun once I get used to the cameras but I know I'm going to do or say something awkward at some point because I'm just like that. It'll be interesting to see how everyone else at work acts too. this is a wild loving first post. What the gently caress are you talking about rear end in a top hat?

On my 5th birthday me and my friends got to be on The Ramblin' Rod Show. I did not win the Smile Award. Last year my wife surprised me with hockey tickets two rows behind the goal at a Seattle Kraken game so we're clearly recognizable on some of the closer shots. I have also had my music played on a radio station thanks to a goon DJ playing songs from the Awful Christmas albums.

In 1995, the sister of someone killed in the Oklahoma City bombing spoke at my grade school when I was in 6th grade and it was covered by local news. I kept looking back at the camera like an idiot, completely ignoring that poor woman and thinking "Imma be on the tv!" And I was

I've been in two different countries' tabloids - for good things - and two different trade organization magazines. I also nailed a short speaking part in a CNN story! Those aren't even the reasons my mother is most proud of me.

I was on an episode of Springer - and I've never seen it. I was also on a game show called Let's Ask America, which was at the time hosted by goon Kevin Pereira. I haven't seen that episode either, since it didn't air in Chicago. But I got eliminated in the first round. Also, I went to college in Arkansas and for the first anniversary of 9/11, I was in a ceremony at the Capitol building in Little Rock. I was standing solemnly at the top of the stairs looking at a huge American flag hanging down while somebody sang The Star Spangled Banner, and the way that guy was singing it I felt like one of the guards in the Biggus Dickus scene, right with a live broadcasting TV camera in my face.

I was on the news when I was 6 getting interviewed at the state fair petting zoo. I told them the goats were funny because they poop little balls. They totally aired it, I wonder if that tape can still play.

When I was a kid I was in a local ad for a real estate agency; just a background extra, crossing a street. In 8th grade band, our class got to go to Portland, Oregon to be in the audience for the filming of Mr. Holland's Opus. Presumably I'm there somewhere but I was never able to spot me.

Been in the weird world of morning TV shows a few times as a backing musician for various bands and singers. Get into the centre of the city at 5:30am, wait around for about 2 hours, "stand by" for 20 minutes, then about 15 seconds to plug everything in and get playing after the commercial break. I wised up to the process after a few times and barged my way to the front during the guitar break, thrashing out my 3 chords and posing like a madman. One time we were packing up and the presenters went "live", the producer told me to "carry it out that way" and I walked right across the shot so the hosts could act interrupted and have a big ol' laugh at our expense. Always got paid tho

Back in 2001 I'd put up a fake CNN webpage with a story about Britney Spears getting killed in a car accident that, with the help of goons, went extremely viral and through a coincidence of factors, ended up making its way onto the actual CNN's list of top stories and the views on the fake story went absolutely bonkers after that. Some news teams tracked me down for interviews about it; but because I had moved a few months prior, the unfortunate souls who lived at my old address got some surprise knocks on the door from reporters too.

I had a small recurring part in a variety show on Community Access TV in Albuquerque. Never got a shot at a headlining skit of my own though. I would play background character, bad white guy and/or Priest, dinosaur extra, some camera and sound work, etc.

I was in a commercial for the Florida Panthers as they were filming crowd reactions at a game I went to, and the only reason I knew was a dude I’d met once sent me a message and told me about it. I’m center frame but it lasts only about a second or two, so I have no idea how he recognized someone he’d met a single time but thanks dude!

In the audience for wrestling shows and once for a Steeler game. Back in college the Penguins won the Stanley Cup and local reporters were outside the bar I was at with a friend. They interviewed us both, and my friend gave a very intelligent answer about how the Penguins had the better team and how they outplayed whoever they beat. I was very drunk and said “we’re all just having a great time here, wooo!”. Only one of us made it on TV and he was pissed at me for months that my drunken antics made it over his well thought out answer.
