So how much of a fool am i!?

[beanbag]

OK, so there I was with my girlfriend in a nightclub in Vienna called Volksgarden and as we're walking out I see Nikki Lauda walking out too with his 20'ish old girlfriend.

My girlfriend pointed over to him and as I looked over my shoulder, I managed to step on his toe and make him stumble...

I managed to stutter in my very worst German, "entschuldigen Nikki!" whilst he gave me one of the biggest evils ever! I felt quite embarrassed as many others looked on!


Lets hope my next face to face with an F1 world champion doesn't go quite the same way....

I wouldn't worry too much - its not the first time he's been cut up

Good on you - I met him once and thought he was bloody rude. Eddie Irvine was alright, but De la Rosa was a top chap!

I like it...just need to find a way to make someone say Niki Lauda to me now.....

So if you asked him out for dinner do you think you'd crash and burn?

Does anyone else use the phrase I've Niki Lauda'd when summing up a spectacular failure when attempting to woo a young lady (as in the crash and burn thing again!!)
