On holiday in Las Vegas, Grado missed out on ICW's Fear & Loathing VI show in 2013. The mistimed jaunt to the United States turned out to be a dream for the funny man wrestler though, he bumped into a former WCW and WWE World Champion at his hotel.

That man was none other than Bill Goldberg, who was likely bemused by the fast-talking Scotsman who approached him for a photograph. Sending a quick video back to ICW boss Mark Dallas, Grado was hastily featured on the big screens at Fear & Loathing along with Goldberg.

Later, Grado used a parody of Goldberg's infamous WCW entrance on ICW events. Chaperoned from his locker room to just behind the curtain, the charismatic star dubbed the routine 'Gradoberg'.

Those who follow Grado's Twitter account will see his many random encounters with stars from the worlds of wrestling, acting and sports. Some people have no shame, and Grado's one of them, but to his credit everyone he meets seems to be sharing the fun.
