Yes. Twice. Both times it was very strange.
I was working in a bar and my dad walked in and walked right past me. I thought it was weird, so I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Dad, you walked right by me!" He turned and it took a second to register--he wasn't my dad, but looked so much like him it was creepy. Luckily, the guy had been mistaken for my dad before and actually had become friends with him. He said, "You must be Terry's daughter". It was quite odd. Years later, the same thing happened--with a different guy. Maybe pops just has one of those faces?

tearaway	Posted May 6th, 2009 at 5:57PM Yes, I've met interesting people that way. And I also pretended to mistake a guy for someone else when I wanted to start a conversation with him once. It worked. So, in conclusion, it can be useful too, but not too useful. The end. Rated: +2Vote for this!
