Bruce Matthews. He isn't just the nicest athlete I've met, he may be one of the nicest humans ever.

Dave Justice. Met him when I was young and he made sure to sign every kid's autograph. Met him again when I was older, he was just as nice.

Kyle Turley - I got vip seats from Roadrunner Records for the Slayer/Chimara show at the HoB in 2002ish. Seats next to me were empty for the opening bands then dude came and sat next to me. Chatted quite a bit.

Interesting.
I have briefly talked to him on two occasions and he was one of the nicest people I have met. Didn't seem rushed or bothered at all.

OJ Simpson. No lie. Super nice. That was before he killed his wife, though.
