EPIC story!
Gotta love it when life drops opportunities like in your lap. Glad for you Brother!
Great to hear he is a good guy. I hear that kind of surprise from a lot of stories about people meeting mega famous people. Because it seems that since they are so mega famous they would be not human.
Yet as u say they are human inside.
Though I would also say that money and fame DIES change a LOT of people. Glad he isn't one of em.
Thanks again~*~

@sirwinchester
Nice story.
if you are still in bitcoin you might want to come to Arnhem instead - it's closer to Cologne, too. It's the bitcoin capital of the NL and you can stay in hotels and pay bitcoin but the bitcoin is bullish now so would want to spare than spend. I posted one article about what kind of stores accept bitcoin payments here and you'll be surprise with the variety of services you could enjoy using bitcoin in Arnhem.

thanks for the tips, sounds like a nice place to visit!
I attended a Bitcoin Conference in Amsterdam once, so I see the netherlands are quite active in the cryptocurrency world, that's awesome

@sirwinchester
yes, we are but when I saw your post back then about the Steemians meeting in Hamburg I wanted to move hahaha - you guys are really a community there I saw. I find that awesome!
Cheers! to cryptocurrency!

spontaneous trip to amsterdam with lennox lewis, what a life!

well, I don't do this everyday ;)

such a cool experience, I'm kind jealous :P no but seriously, awesome that you got to meet him lennox is one of the biggest superstars in sports history, and it's nice to hear that he's so friendly and humble

thank you! yes he really was so friendly and kind, a great example on how to handle money and fame and NOT let it get to your head!

Oh WoW
Thx 4 Posting
Steemon!

glad you enjoyed it :)

that must have been so awesome, just chilling with him like a normal friend. I'm also surprised that he just walks around, visiting fitness exhibitions.
He's really doing his best to stay down to earth

absolutely, he enjoys life like a normal person and doesn't act as if he was a big deal at all. thats the way to go

sounds really cool, thanks for sharing your experience! you sure had a great time!

glad you liked it, and yes we really did!

I imagine he must be HUGE and a little intimidating in real life, lol. Even better that you said he was so friendly. Friendly giant :)

like I said, I felt like he was well over 2 meters tall when I first saw him. but he's not intimidating at all, looks can be deceiving sometimes!

Awesome that you got to see him. What was his reaction? I was pretty amazed by the fact that something like cryptocurrency exist

yes he was the same, he never heard of it before so at first he couldnt really believe it, but when I told him more about it and explained the benefits to him, he was very interested

props to him that he was so interested in cryptocurrency, although it must have sounded pretty complicated to him. shows that he is always ready to learn new things!

exactly, and that's a great attitude!

it would be my dream to meet him. he's an absolute legend!

absolutely, one of the biggest and most successful athletes of our time

cryptocurrency must sound like a totally different world to him, yet he was interested and wanted to know more about it that's so cool! would love to meet him one day.

amazing that he was so humble and down to earth. you dont expect that from a celebrity of this class!

exactly, he sets a great example

What a inspiring story, It goes to show not all celebrities are out for themselves ! thanks for the story

wow, survivors met with lennox lewis , he pavorit me in the boxing ring @sirwinchester

Thanks for sharing! Maybe he will use Steem?! ;-)

Anything to do with boxing I'm there. Lennox Lewis was an extremely talented professional boxer with an outstanding record. He seems like a cool, down to earth guy like you are. Great post. I too hope he joins us on Steemit. Upvoted

Great read my man, thanks.

It's such a treat to find athletes that are grounded and willing to talk to fans in a non hierarchical way. I See you in this was as well @sirwinchester. You may not have the success and fame worldwide as Lennox does, but you treat everyone as equals here. It's a beautiful thing.

It's good to have some great boxers who are genuinely decent people inside and out of the ring. Mayweather is a great marketer and fighter, but I'd much rather spend my time with someone like Lennox if given the option.

You get to do some incredible things with your life and I feel that you have endless stories and experiences to share. You always do a good job with your posts and I've learned quite a bit from you already. Maybe there could be a global steemit meetting somewhere down the road. I'd love to meet you and some of the other inspirational bloggers I have come to respect so much on this platform.

Oh my God. I am SO jealous! He's a legend. Cool to read that he's still down to earth, amazing story.
