RE: Bumped into OCC Guys...
I'd love to go on a ride with Mikeeeeeee, he's the only reason i watch the show. Vinnie is pretty chill too. I wouldn't care for hanging out with either Paul's unless they wanted to take me shopping.

I'd rather bump into that 85 year old guy that won the
power ball. He lives in this neak of the woods.

How true is that? Not to be slamming the guy or anything, but I wish that sometime a 'regular schmo' would win the Lotto.
Heck - I would be all manner of happy to win just enough to pay-off my house - and this guy @ 84 years oldwins BooKoo millions...Guess his family will be set.
If I had to pick someone to meet...
I don't really care it they are famous - I would be happy to meet a nice, attractive, nymphomaniac.

I just met Michele Smith (American Thunder) and I must say I would much rather meet her three times than meet any of the OCC's once. She is beautiful, friendly, beautiful, oh and picture was free.

Somebody ought to bump into them with a ball peen hammer! I can't believe people put them on a pedestal like they do....they sure as hell aren't talented. Anybody can do what they do. Obnoxious punks.

I dont see what the big deal is about those guys. I would rather bump into someone who is more meaningful.

Not everyone that can 'do what they do' have untold millions of dollars in their bank account.
Have to give them credit for their marketing ability that has put them in their current position, both money wise and being so popular with the general public.

they caught the wave at the right time...more luck than anything else....and their millions come from more than just the bike shop...they own half the town from other businesses. Sr had it before the show.
They're shop is only an hr from here....I can think of alota things I'd rather do than waste time with them.
At least though they seem to be somewhat community minded. though I can't say 4 sure since I don't live there.

RE: Bumped into OCC Guys...
A friend of mine from the Army went to their shop for some bike show.He said it was $30.00 an autograph.I personally quit watching the show simply because I got tired of watching the make believe fighting.In the beginning all they were doing was putting together parts from catalogs.After they hit the big time they got all the high tech stuff to build unrideable theme bikes with ridiculous attachments.I have seen some of their bikes that weren't put together on T.V and I liked a couple of them.I just got tired of the "deadline" crap.A bike being finished for a show isn't a "deadline" to throw a fit over.I saw Paulie Jr. on some show saying that the spider-web bike was worth $150,000.00.Yeah, right.I wish I made an hour what he does.Their labor rate must be astronomical.If someone gave me one of their bikes I would immediately sell it and buy a West Coast Chopper, where Jesse James used to work.A friend of mine who works for Mac Tools said when she went to his shop it looked like an assembly line of illegals putting stuff together.I'll stick with the local guy.

You know, I got no problem with the show. As I've said previously, P Sr. reminds me of my dad right down to the size 12's and the yellin in the shop.
What I don't get is the pedestal. They are about an hour and a half from here. Every summer, someone takes a ride up. I'm NOT standing outside anyone's building waiting for them to come out. And I don't get the standing in line and paying $30 for a signature. They're people, just like you and me.
I've hung at the same parties and restaurants as celebrities and sports figures. They are people just like you and me.
