#16: Cool Mom, Cool Friends
Imagine flipping idly through a family photo album and spotting a photo of your parent with a celebrity. And not just any random celebrity, but a super cool one! That’s precisely what happened to this contributor, who learned that their mother ran into American rapper Flavor Flav at a motorcycle shop in 1992, where they posed for this picture.

If you don’t know who Flavor Flav is, you should really check out his music. He is a rapper who is one half of Public Enemy, and his rap partner is Chuck D. He’s best known for his unique fashion choice of wearing a massive clock on a chain around his neck. He says the clock symbolizes the importance of not wasting time.
