And I've been recognized by people I don't remember meeting from 10+ years ago about that frequently.

Yeah only a handful of folks in professional sports end up being celebrities. Most of them just collect their check and live it up quietly, doing the occasional interview that gets watched by 20 people or so. :p

I’d love that life.

Same. I don't want to be the star, I want to be the person that makes the star look good, like be a clutch second string that doesn't screw up while the star takes a much needed rest. You're still making crazy money, but you also get to live a reasonably quiet life.
