Wade Boggs when i was a child in a sports store with my mom shopping for something for a gift for my dad.
I saw him all the time riding his stupid purple dune buggy when I was growing up. He was kind of a jerk.0 -
Oh! I forgot my favorite story. I didn't actually meet him, but Justin Timberlake flew in to the little tiny airport where my dad and I fly. He was walking through the building and the lady who mans the radio whispers to my dad "That's Justin Timberlake." And my dad, who has no inside voice says "Who's Justin Timberlake?" JT turned around and looked at him. I almost peed my pants laughing.0

I met Beyonce Knowles back when she was part of Destiny's Child. She was sweet, her friends, snobby.
James Best. He's really tall and very personable. We own a few of his paintings.0 -
James Gandofini- I met him in a New Orleans strip club. I chuckled because he's exactly what I would have thought.
Ron Jeremy- met him at a bar. Really this is not one to be proud of
Dan O Brien (triathlete and of Dan and Dave Nike commercials)- I interviewed him for school newspaper in 8th grade.0 -
Christopher Walken, while I was sitting at a 7-11 filling up my car. He pulled in behind me, winked, and started to fill his car up. Of course I was an idiot and asked him what his favorite movie line was. He did this little prance thing and said, "Forget about it." and I almost died. He was wearing pajama pants and I may have fallen in love with him in that minute. He drove away and I hated myself for a week for not asking for a picture or something.0
