10 Greatest Athlete Cameos of ALL TIME!


Check out a list of the 10 Greatest Sports Cameos in Movie History. But keep in mind that WILT CHAMBERLAIN'S appearance in "Conan the Destroyer" should NOT count as a cameo. He's a full-on character who's in a lot of the movie. My favorites from the list::

8. Lawrence Taylor, "The Waterboy": The unintentional comedy is off the charts with this cameo, as a lively Lawrence Taylor speaks to kids (bad idea) and gives them some good, if ironic, advice: "Don't smoke crack!"

6. Lance Armstrong, "Dodgeball": Armstrong's speech on quitting somehow manages to both make light of cancer and motivate you to get up off your couch, all at once. Nice work.

5. Brett Favre, "There's Something About Mary": Expertly foreshadowed throughout, this was an example of a perfect reveal at the end of the movie -- and it marked the last time anybody was genuinely excited to see Favre's face again.

4. Mike Tyson, "The Hangover": A killer cameo for three reasons: It totally reclaims "In the Air Tonight" from "Miami Vice," it turns Tyson into a lovable menace, and it answers once and for all the question of whether you'd be willing to take one punch, just one, from Tyson for a million bucks.

1. Cam Neely, "Dumb and Dumber": Simply the greatest athlete cameo ever. No more needs to be said except for Sea Bass' catchphrase.

Mel's cameo


The NY Post claims Mel Gibson is going to make a cameo in The Hangover 2. A source says, "It's a done deal. Mel will make a cameo as a tattoo artist. Filming is taking place on the Warner Bros. lot, where a Bangkok set has been built, and Mel is expected to film his role in two weeks. Then the production moves to Thailand at the end of October."

Cameo


Lars Ulrich and Dee Snider are going to make cameo appearances playing themselves in "Get Him to the Greek". The "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" spinoff follows a 23-year-old as he escorts a rocker to L.A.s Greek Theatre for the first-stop on a $100-million tour.
