FYI: that is Spud Webb with Manute in that picture. There are pictures of Manute and Muggsy when they played on the Bullets.

He looks like a decal on the pool's floor or something. Amazing.

Apparently in that first photo I posted Sir Jimmy Savile and Frank Bruno are meeting the Yorkshire Ripper.
The ones I didn't recognise in the second are Liberace and wrestler Wendi Richter.

It would be nice if people actually wrote the names of the people in the pics, I have no idea who some of these foks are...
I have no who the other two are... But at this point I've given up hope people would actually include the names with the pics.

the impression that i get is that if you don't recognise who the people are then you won't get why its unusual why they're photographed together, and that writing underneath who they are might somehow spoil the surprise of seeing them together - have i got that right? i don't mind either way personally...
― face depalma (stevie), Friday, 24 February 2012 08:35 (twelve years ago) link
No, I didn't recognize Alicia Keys, even though I'm familiar with her work. The thought of her and Adams sitting next to each other is still mind boggling.

The same with me, I don't every celebrity by the face but I might recognize the name. I know about Flaming Lips but I didn't know what their singer looks like.

Didn't realize that was Liberace in the first pic. I mistook him for a particularly goofy David Hasselhoff.
