How Much Would You Pay to Meet D-Wade?

What's the going price for a brush with fame? If you're a Canadian tourist in Miami, it's a couple of thousand dollars and change. From the Miami Herald (via Brooks)
Dwyane Wade was celebrating his 26th birthday with about 20 family members at DeVito South Beach when an unidentified Canadian man approached general manager Chris Cuomo and asked to meet Wade in exchange for paying half of Wade's $4,500 bill. Wade had the fan sent to his table and took a photo with him.

''That was great. I said I should start going to different restaurants and if people want to come up and pay for my bill, I like it,'' Wade said, laughing. ``He and his daughter and her friend just wanted to meet me. He didn't give me his card.''

Wow, that actually sounds like a classy gesture. The guy actually volunteered to give Wade something for his time. I like it.

Heck, I guess if you have the cash, why not?...some people spend $35 mil running for President, others a few hundred mil buying a sports franchise...why not a few grand to have a once in a lifetime thing like that?

Absolutely - and he probably gave his daughter the thrill of her young life in the process. I don't think you can spend your money any better than that!
