Poll of the Day > Does anyone know how Alton Brown is in person to fans and people?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I have been watching his live streams, well not since he has been AWOL the last two weeks due to his Twitter break down.

Made me think about him and I believe he is a dick in person. His episode of Hot Ones he said how he some times will leave a grocery store with his cart behind when he sees some of the "crap" other people buys. Seems like he may have a ego that would make him a pain to deal with.

I'd have to watch it for context, but if he was being serious that's pretty douchey and self-fellatting.

I saw Alton Brown at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, Oh, like youre doing now?
I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like Sir, you need to pay for those first. At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually to prevent any electrical infetterence, and then turned around and winked at me. I dont even think thats a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly

That is literally the same story you or someone else posted the other day about someone else. Way to be an annoying person.
