It wasn't a surprise that he was recognized - people did that all the time - but the surprise came when he was drawn in by the burly man's arm as if they were long-time college drinking buddies at a Frat party. Not that Reed ever went to Frat parties when he was attending the Universities, but from what he observed, they behaved just like this.
This was unacceptable.
The brute was too strong to pull away from, as Reed found out, so instead, he stretched his body, making himself thinner to slip from the man's grasp just as he presented him with the photograph, which by the way, he did not take.
"Excuse me!" Reed said, visibly offended. "Who do you think you are? You're not even supposed to be doing this in the lobby!"
