...is crap at darts. Even worse on fruit machines. Me and a mate had to teach him.

Anyone else have any crap celebrity-in-pub-related anecdotes?

I took a piss next to Dennis Waterman in a pub a little while back. He made a terrible mess and then walked out without washing his hands. Filthy bastard.

I once (accidentally) tripped up Robbie Savage in a pub. Sadly, he still plays football. I'll try harder next time.

I know this isn't pub related but very funny...

A friend of mine (mick) went to see AC/DC at The Mayfair in Newcastle when it was open. At the end of the gig, Angus went on a walkabout through the crowd. In true celebrity style he was recieved very well and people were patting him on the back.
It turns out my mate mick was holding two pints at the time and obviously couldn't pat angus on the back so he did the next best thing. He swung his leg out and tripped the poor fellow over. When Angus got back up agian, he jumped onto the back ofone of his mnders and carried on his trip up there...

I would have loved to see that!

My mate Tamsyn lost to Vinnie Jones at pool.
Not funny, but that's the best I can do.

Me and a mate once blagged our way to a sports agents 40th birthday party with Peter Reid, Phil Brown, Ryan Giggs and half the England cricket team (1999), rather unusually, phil tufnell was stone cold sober and left early, while mike atherton hung one on till two in the morning and then took two local slappers back to his hotel. we were mightily impressed!

and it was a free bar :)

I took Jimmy White on at 9-ball when he was at the opening of Rieleys in Bedford.

I was doing all right, potted one on the break and went up to the four ball with some stunning shots.

Then he got on the table and I got caned.

I was in a restaurant in London and was off for a piss. Toilets were busy so I tried to get into one of the cubicles. The door slammed shut really hard and I said woahhhh mate calm down. A minute later Frank Bruno came out of the cubicle. Bet he pisses sitting down.

A friend of mine sat next to Billy from Eastenders in a pub and he just sat there farting for all night (and they stank too).

Oh a few years back I once went for wee in the Jacaranda pub in Liverpool (a pub with big Beatle connections) and realised I was standing between John Lennon and Paul McCartney in full Seargnat Pepper outfits (OK a couple of people dressed as them) but it was very odd.
