Is it at all possible to parent an object to a player? (like a player runs thru a trigger than an object is parented to them)

You could test this out by parenting an object to !player and another to !client.
I doubt that it works, but that's your best best.

It wouldn't.
The previous suggestion only has a chance of working in Single-Player.

Ok well b4 i get home to test it... I want to be able to pretty much let a player carry something thats not part of the game and be able to drop it.. I kno that this is probably or nearly impossible but im still tryng to attempt it do you have any other solutions than trying to parent?
