-I came *this close* to running over Michael Bolton with my car when I lived in Atlanta. He walked right out into the street between parked cars, and I had to slam on my brakes to keep from hitting him. My car came to a stop about a foot or two from him. He looked up and I realized who it was and realized I missed my chance to save humanity.

-I was hiking in mountains outside of Los Angeles and wearing a big sun hat on a hot sunny day. A guy passed by, stopped, and asked what kind of hat I was wearing and where I got it. It took me a minute to realize it was John Lithgow.

I guess add Richie McKay to my list. Current head basketball coach at Liberty. Helped out their athletic department at some games over winter break the other year ago. McKay always had to make weird comments that didn't make a damn bit of sense to each table worker before every game.
COTDAMN! You met Liberty’s basketball coach that 99.99999% of people wouldn’t know or recognize?!?! Wow and I mean WOW. We’ve got a winner here gang!

We had clubhouse passes for the Foster Brooks golf tournament back in the 80s. Got to meet Alex Trebek, Louise Mandrell and Kenny Rodgers. Kenny was a dick. The nicest of the bunch was Ernest Borgnine. The kind of guy you'd love to have a beer with.

Dozens, especially in Vegas. Most recent was sharing an elevator with Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly at the Wynn last year along w/ a very large and bad *** bodyguard. He said "wassup" and she smiled....and yes, she is flawless.
Just don’t look at her thumbs.

Nick Zito came into the Starbucks on Versailles Road when I worked there. I had no idea who he was but some customers freaked.

Same with the lady that wrote "The ****** Monologues". Came through the drive thru and I handed her a coffee and off she went. Then my coworker LOST HER MIND because of who it was.

My Aunt has a friend that was a waitress in LA near all the TV and movie studios. She told me that she met pretty much everyone you could possibly imagine while working there. The only one she said was really RUDE was the guy that played Greg in "Dharma and Greg". She couldn't remember what his actual name was.
