I'll go first.

Nolar Ryan at a restaurant in Arlington when I was about 14. I asked him for an autograph and he was nice. I saw him again a few years later at a HS game and didn't bug him.

Pat Sajak at The W Hotel in LA. I didn't even bug him and he seemed like an AH. Valet guys said Pat was a no-tipper.

Morgan Freeman at a beachside restaurant in Santa Monica. I didn't bug him but sure wanted to. He's one of my very favorite actors. He was having a good time with friends.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Mathew Broderick in Manhattan. We didn't bug them but they did look up and smile.

Billy Crystal at a restaurant in Manhattan. We were in the restroom at the same time. We nodded and smiled. I don't talk to dudes in the pizzer, I don't care who it is.

Dennis Rodman in Dallas while I was doing an inspection at a restaurant in the Oak Lawn area. He bought everyone in the house, including us, lunch. He seemed cool.

I met Bill Goldberg and the Steiner bros at DFW, all three we’re really cool and we spoke for a few minutes.

I said hello to mike modano while boarding a plane at DFW, he was in first class as I passed by him on way to the coach seats

My wife worked with the wife of Todd Lewis, lead singer of The Toadies, and we all got to hang together a few times. I know that’s a stretch for famous but they do have a platinum record.

I’m not a fan of hers, but I do try to be objective. I’ll give her a pass on this since she’s got Joe Biden in her ear all the time. Pun intended??? Maybe, maybe not.

Was playing minigolf with my young son in Tyler , mid 80's , Only other people on the course was Randy White and his Agent? Accountant ?

My son was wearing a Dallas Cowboys T shirt, We got his autograph on our scorecard.

PS Was feeding the tarpon at Robbies in the Florida Keys , Roland Martin was at the end of the dock filming, With a tarpon fly , no hook, tied to a spinning rod , no Reel.
Cameraman shooting under water shots. Roland slipped the manager a Benjamin when he left . About a year later was
watching Roland's TV show , He said they would be Fly fishing for Tarpon off Islamorada , FL . They edited the footage from
Robbies into the action shot of Roland setting the hook on a Tarpon on the Flats. frown

That kind of ruined fishing shows for me. The killer was watching Roland and his wife fishing shiners for big bass on Lake Okeechobee.
She set the hook with a spinning reel and landed the fish with a baitcaster.

I’ve met a bunch of celebrities at various pro motorcycle races, but the one that really stood out to me was Keanu Reeves. Came to the pits alone, asked if he could watch, observed from a distance, and then disappeared. Met everyone there, shook hands, and talked to all the mechanics one on one. Very impressive guy.
