I know a few people like that. One of my best friends is also a professional soccer player, it was always weird when he came to play against my favorite team and you could hear 60,000 people yelling at him when he was pushed to the ground, and calling him a cheat etc, then I'm out partying with him that night.

Anyone got friends or old school/college friends who are now kinda famous?
