So today I took off to Miami from Los Angeles California, I ended up missing my flight that was to take off at 7 PST, then the 8:40 flight was full. But I managed to get into the 11:50 PST flight. Hours after my original flight! We ended up getting here later than expect which put me in a bad mood but just as we were grabbing out Bags, there was some Driver Type guy in a suit and a piece of paper that said "Jim Ross". I walked passed it not realizing what I read so I turned back to re read it and it was correct. I was wondering if it could be some other JR, but just then this old dude with a hat came a long and it was Jim Ross!! Lol.
We asked for a Picture and to be honest he sounded annoyed and just responsed 'Sure'. And didn't give a smile lol. But it was cool. After we took the picture I walked away so he wouldn't be bothered but just seconds later he was surrounded by people asking for autographs. It was pretty cool to see him. Will post some pics and a video of it when I get back to my computer to upload the files.
Edit with video:

I don't think he's physically able to smile after his palsy. Cool story  |

Nice story and it's a shame he got flocked by people but I guess that's expected. I'd love to get JR to autograph a bag of skittles for me, it would be the greatest day ever.

You realize his face is paralyzed right? lol. Might explain why he didn't smile.
Also - if he didn't want to be recognized, he wouldn't be wearing that hat.. and his limo driver wouldn't be holding up a JIM ROSS sign. So I wouldn't worry about it too much.
That is cool that you met him him. I met him back in the day and he was a pretty nice guy.

I met him after an event and he seemed like he couldn't be bothered.

I think your mom just might be the first person to ever cry meeting J.R. Pretty sweet story, though. |

I'd love to meet JR. And I think he's just a generally uninterested guy, I don't think I've ever seen him enthusiastic about something. Likely due to his illness.

You've never seem him enthusiastic about something? Were you asleep all of those times he basically had an orgasm for Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold! |

Nice on meeting him. I feel bad for the guy and everyone else. Those autograph guys  in swarm to these guys like crazy. I now know why Punk is a dick. |

You know, considering everything he's been through? He looks pretty good. Looks in a lot better shape than I'd expect him too at least. I think JR just has a certain demeanor and doesn't mean to come off as abrasive. Just somewhat stoic. As he had no problems stopping and fulfilling the fans wishes for pictures and autographs.
