Bono at a Delta Crown Room at LaGuardia Airport...looked like a little homeless person, once I realized who it was, stuck my hand out to shake his, he gave me the cool bro shake.

I forgot to add...

I was once at a bar on a Monday night, in Alpharette, GA called Jordan's. I walk in to meet my brother, the place was dead. My brother asks me if I recognize the two guys just down from us at the bar. I see two dorky looking guys playing bar trivia.

I realize it was Maddox and Smoltz.

Oscar De la Hoya at a the Beau Rivage black jack table. A year later at the Bellagio in Vegas.

Bo Pelini and Les Miles at Sandestin.

Bill Clinton a few times.

Mike Huckabee, if you count him as famous.

Mary Steenburgen and Roddy Mcdowell. They saw the dermatologist my mom worked for. One of my 3rd grade teachers was her sister and her dad worked with my grandpa at the railroad. She babysat me one time while Roddy got some work done at the office.

Barry Switzer. Know quite well. He's a suave mf'er for man his age and likes some big titties.



Brooks Robinson. Played ball with my grandpa and is from North Little Rock. Watched me play 3rd a couple times in highschool. Talking about some pressure!

I've seen several famous people in airports but I don't bother them.

Bill Cosby was in Atlanta a couple months ago.

I saw Butter Bean in Memphis 6 or 7 years ago. He is one big MF'er. His hand looked like 2 of mine.

Collin Ferrel going through the Rio airport.

The Duck Dynasty crew several times, they are very approachable and don't mind talking. Willie didn't say much though.

A couple politicians, but I could care less about talking to any of them.

In 2000 I was with my dad at a dog racing track in Ft. Meyers Florida. Rodney Dangerfield sits right next to us. When the dogs started running he yells out "come on baby, papa needs a brand new prostate exam!" shite was awesome he autographed my dads gambling receipt/ticket.

George Takei in ATL.. we were in lost luggage line...I kept looking over my shoulder trying to figure out this guy... He grabs my shoulder and pulls me down and says "Warp Speed Captain"...queer as a 3dolla Bill but a great guy to shoot shite with for an hour.

Graham Nash and David Crosby at the first Clinton inaugural at Constitution Hall... Most gracious and kind folks I have met -Nash is a natural-Crosby is not the a-Hole made out to be-both are very bright guys and more down to earth than most posters here.


Warren zevon in Milwaukee- drank beer with him all afternoon before his show-He dedicated "Play it all night long" to Alabama,then invited me on stage to sing lawyers guns and money..

Drove Ernest borgnine, bo Hopkins, and goober Lindsey around in a golf cart

Can't tell any more stories cause statutes
Haven't run and many are still acting..

I met a bunch of celebrities when I worked for Disney.


But like out and about, I said "Hey, man!" to Wesley Snipes at a strip club in Orlando shortly after I moved there in 1996.


I think he's from Orlando. That's what they told me anyway.

Lee Harvey Oswald... Dallas Book Depository... November 1963.

Seriously though, one of my coworkers remembers him handing out pamphlets in New Orleans in the early 60's and taking one from him. That'd have to be worth some serious coin today.
