    Saw Madonna shopping in NYC back in 1985

    Met Darren Pang

    Met Craig Ludwig at a bar & met Jere Lehtinen who coached my son's team. But that won't mean anything to you unless you like hockey...!

    Tommy Shaw, when I was, like, sixteen years old. I was at the concert,
    he actually reached out and grabbed my hand, pulled me up on stage,
    and I got to do the robot voice for Mr. Roboto!

    met a few Nascar drivers (grew up in Concord, NC). The only other "famous" person I have met is Robert D Raeford. Unless you listen to John Boy and Billy that probably won't mean much to you either. He picked up his pictures from me when I worked at Eckerd Drugs when I was in high school (almost 20 years ago)!

    I grew up in L.A so I have seen a bunch of random famous people. Haven't met to many though.
    My husband met Flavor Flav. Had no idea who he was. Even after the poor guy told him. Said " I'm Flavor Flav"

    Last month, I met -- and had dinner with -- veteran actor Hal Holbrook. He's been around for years, but most recently the grandfather in "Water for Elephants". He's a really nice guy, with 70 years of acting stories to share!
