Any fans seen you in the street?

Have you ever been stopped by your viewers in real life? If so how did it go.

I've never had it happen to me for youtube, but I've had people come up to me when I used to do Standup comedy. It was always neat, but I never knew what to say since, I didn't think I was popular so I felt awkward since I didn't know them at all.

I have seen one of my friends get recognized for youtube though. . . While we were shooting one of his videos. That was cool. They asked to get pictures with him and stuff.

Hmmm... One of the ladies at the dog park was my 666th subscriber, I see her every weekend. My girlfriend also told me that her boss talks to her about my videos at work, he told her the other day that he loved my "little dog humps big dog's head" video. I've never had a random person come up to me like "hey you're that dude on YouTube". I did have somebody reply to a re-post on Tumblr saying "hey that dog park looks familiar" and then they confirmed that it's the one they go to. That person has never approached me though.

I'm stopped by fans all the time! They LOVE me, and I give them hugs -- ALWAYS!
Unless they're contagiously sick... then I have to think of everyone else. It's just responsible to not hug contagious people...

(No, I've never been stopped by a fan...)

With only 92 subs it never happens because if it did that would be crazy high odds.

Unless your biggest fan is your mother, and one day while you're both in WalMart, she just runs up to you and asks for your autograph... ... which would be awkward, embarrassing, but also kinda cool.

No, never like... in the street. I do gaming, though, and (although I only have 131 subs) got a random message with a person in the game lobby saying he's been subbed to my channel for a couple of weeks. It was awesome!

I've only been stopped twice in Portland by people who recognized me through our videos, it was pretty neat. The first one was weird because it was just a week after we started the channel, but the other one was in the middle of our recent shoot for the frozen food prank - this guy and his girlfriend came up to me (although I think she had no idea who I was), and he was very nice. Needless to say, we couldn't prank them.

It would definitely be a weird situation.
