God yes..

Here in Australia everyone watches the AFL (Aussie Footy).

We had a customer who was a major footy player, and it was obvious he was surrounded by "yes men" his whole life. I watched as everyone around me started laughing at everything he said the moment he stepped in the room...

What he was saying at the time really wasn't that hilarious honestly..

And it reminds me of the time we got a phone call from danii minogues family to tell us a "special guest" was coming to our store. The room was full of a bunch of nerds. None of us really cared (even if it was Kylie) lol.. None of us even recognised her. Even my audio engineer friend who works with good celebrities (like she's worked with Tim Minchin) just sees them as normal people (and yeah, she's a gamer)

Yet I guarantee, lots of people super into celebs dislike gamers.
