I'm sure you still have a chance to meet him too. It's not like he's busy or anything.Originally Posted by Mizango

I worked at NFL Films for six months and met a bunch of football celebrities there. I worked with Brian Baldinger and Sterling Sharpe as their personal researcher for Playbook on the network. Sean Payton was my guest boss for a week on that show. I met Ron Jaworski, Ray Diddinger, Steve Sabol, Greg Cosell, and a lot of Eagles players (McNabb, Sheldon Brown, Jon Runyan, Hank Baskett, Reno Mahe, Kearse, and Takeo Spikes who is frightening up close). I'm probably forgetting some people.
Outside of NFL Films I've met a lot of indy bands nobody cares about. Rilo Kiley, the Weakerthans, Mates of State. I did meet Elvis Costello once and I was totally not prepared for it. I also have to say that Andrew WK was the nicest famous person I've ever met.
perhaps the best post I had seenOriginally Posted by SathFenrir
also, met one of the Rockefellers (Rockefeller square, rich family etc...)..didn't really meet persay, but was delivered by one![]()
Was talking about who I met, not a follow up comment to the Hillary thing.Also probably about 99.99999999992% of all politicians ever and 100% of all of the current presidential candidates.
Kobe Tai @ Uptown Cabaret in Charlotte, NC. Shook her hand and chatted. Seemed really nice.
Nikki Tyler @ Mickey's in Fay, NC. Got a pic and hug and etc.
Tie, I guess?
Runner up - Donnell Woolford at various family barbeques.
What's the fascination with meeting famous people? I always wondered that, lol.

That guy was married to my preschool teacher at one point. I had a conversation with him but I don't remember what it was about. The entire time I was talking to him I thought he was giving me the evil eye.Originally Posted by Korietsu
Sadly I haven't met any other celebrities; at least, not ones that I knew were celebrities at the time![]()

"Uh-huh."
"That's a really popular name."
Oh, lol, just remembered the most famous person I've personally met and hung out with.
The guy with the Microphone and leather pants there.
Jimi Jamison, my mother in law helped him out with some remodeling and setting up his garden, and one of her friends is an old school... groupie I guess is the term.
He's been over here at the house when I got home from running around a couple times, kinda funny when you think about it, but EVERYONE knows that song.
After my second year of college, my mom and I travelled over to Elvis's house to do their standard touring thingy and the 4 finalists of american idol were arriving right as we were finishing (Taylor Reuben Hicks, Katharine Hope McPhee, Efraym Elliott Yamin and Christopher Adam Daughtry - wiki'd, btw, I don't watch the show nor did I have any clue what their names were). Got some pictures with them then left, probably wound up deleting the pictures later.
Highlight of my celeb life, though still pretty boring![]()
Bob Dylan
I've met a few other well known people, but he is the most famous.

I am really glad you mentioned that lol.
pun intended.
I met Larry the Cable Guy and got his autograph in Tallahassee, FL about a month ago. He talks nothing like he does on stage. His real accent is nowhere near redneck.
I also do believe I've met someone else but I just can't think of who.
Well most famous sports figure I met was Ben Roethlisberger at Best Buy. He was buying the Family Guy season 4.
Most famous movie figure is George Romero(family friend) and Tom Savini(met him through George Romero) and Asia Argento(once again, through George Romero.)
Also met Stephanie Swift at a Primanti's in the strip district(club section of Pittsburgh.) To me she's arguably one of the most beautiful women to work in porn. Very nice lady, a buddy and I were the only people there who recognized her and I went up and talked to her. She asked us not to broadcast who she was. Her and her bodyguard ended up sitting with us and bullshitting for about an hour(got free passes to her next show, which amazingly enough, she remembered us by name and talked with us afterwards.)
And for that Stephanie Swift is forever one of the coolest ladies I have ever met.
I'm going to stab you with a rusty knife. I would go apeshit I met Big Ben.Well most famous sports figure I met was Ben Roethlisberger at Best Buy. He was buying the Family Guy season 4.
It was kind of funny because I was there buying the same thing and I just heard him mumbling "I can't believe this finally came out." and I turn around and look UP. And there he is. And I am by no means a short person, I'm 6'2" and I actually had to look up a bit. He asked me what my favorite episode was and kind of blew off two autograph seekers while bs'ing about the Family Guy.
He asked if I wanted an autograph I said no. He asked why not and I told him I'm a Colts fan. Which he actually started laughing pretty good when he realized I was dead serious. Then I got screamed at by my fiancee because she adores Ben and I didn't get his autograph.
So lives a Colts fan in Pittsburgh![]()
If it counts I know Kristy Lee Cook (lolAmericanIdol) since I was like 10 and more then a few of my buddies banged her. God bless small towns.
Tiger Woods, Mark McGuire, Jennifer Anniston and Kobe Bryant I've met when I used to work in Newport. Probably a few other celebs but I may not have recognized them. Met Robin Williams when I was kid. I've been to a party in Pomona that Jessica Alba was at. Other then that.. who knows. I don't actively seek celebs out.
