Saw George Takei outside of the theatre on Broadway. He was busy and we were running late for the show, would have tried for an autograph otherwise.0

I guess it depends on your definition of celebrity but...
Mark Stepnosky (Dallas Cowboy) - at a restaurant
Michael Irvin (Dallas Cowboy) - stopped at my job site asking for directions
Ken Curtis (Festus from Gunsmoke) - at a stock show
Ann Richards (governor of Texas) - at a gas station
Jim Wright (Speaker of the House) - Sat next to him at the circus
Michael Martin Murphey (singer) - cattle show
Brad Hawpe (Colorado Rockies) - went to school together and I actually coached his younger brother who was also an outstanding ball player
Craig Ludwig (Dallas Stars, player/broadcaster) - played softball with him
Toby Harrah (Texas Rangers, player/manager) - went to his camp as a kid and his son went to school and played ball with my brother
I actually used to be a big fan of Mark Stepnosky until I saw first hand what an *kitten* he is. Irvin has issues but he is actually really cool in person.0 -
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
2004 I got on elevator in St Louis airport. There was a seven foot black man holding a pillow. My brain screamed " That's Lou Alicindor!" We are the same age so my brain went back to the 1960s.
Then I said "Are you Hakeem Olajuwon?"
He looked at me like I was a confused old white man. I didn't realize my mistake until later.
Magic Johnson
Asked for his autograph in Milwaukee airport, super nice to me even when the government pen I handed him would not work.
Scott Glenn
Recognized him standing by luggage carousel waiting for his bags. Asked him if he was Scott Glenn,
he was either very quiet or just annoyed that I asked him? He appeared to be with his family.5 -

I believe you are thinking of Deon Sanders and his Prime Prep Academy. Michael Irvin was the one who got busted in the hotel room with hookers and coke.2 -

I met Richard Hatch (Battlestar Galactica) and Sigourney Weaver when I was doing extra work on TV and movies over the years. And some guy who was on Gossip Girl, I forget his name. Sigourney Weaver is super nice and like 8 feet tall.
I worked in NY until recently and used to run into celebs all the time -- Damian Lewis, Kelly Ripa, sat back to back with Meg Ryan at a restaurant. Talked to Michael Starr in an elevator (for the metal fans out there).
I worked in entertainment in Philly in the late 80s to mid 90s, so I got to meet a whole mix of bands and actors -- Living Color (soooo nice), Bob Newhart (total jerk), The Four Tops, Brian Setzer, Information Society, Dick Dale, Thomas Dolby. Oh, and met Larry Mullen and Adam Clayton from U2 when I was in Ireland in 1989 (my friend's cousin knew them).1 -

I was in the Marines. Hitchhiking from 29 Palms to Los Angeles. 1973. This guy picked me up in a Mazda. Recognized him but couldn't think of his real name. Turned out it was Jackie Coogan. Uncle Fester. Nice Guy.
