During emergency Hurricane Andrew Rescue Efforts in Homestead, FL

I met Marilyn Quayle, the Vice Presidents wife - Dan Quayle

The atmosphere was busy and as you can imagine hot and the experience was 3rd World.

She was as gracious as anyone I have ever met, truly kind and unassuming - I was so impressed and thankful she took the time to thank those of us in the efforts to help.

Natasha Henstridge in college at the MTV Rock n Jock Superbowl. Her and a friend met my buddy and I later for drinks. We tried so hard to pull a one night stand out of it but it just wasn't happening

Tommy Lasorda at Houston Hobby about 21 years ago. He sat down next to my brother, a very very avid baseball and stat guy, and me in the waiting area and after four or five minutes he asked us to watch his briefcase while he went to the lounge for a drink. I thought my little brother was going to wet himself. Came back about 15 minutes later and we talked baseball until time to board.

Mark Cuban on bourbon. Talked to him for a second and shook his $2+ billion dollar net worth hand. He was by himself after a mavericks game in Nola, maybe waiting for someone.

Met/saw/ or sat next to all of these people on Southwest Airlines Flights:

David Robison-sat next to, his knees were in his chest
Mad Mike from Pimp My Ride, across the aisle
Lynrd Skynrd- the living ones
Jenna Haze- Sat next to. Kind of surreal, given the amount of times I have fapped to her.

Sat behind Alex Trebeck on a flight from NO to Houston. That damn Jeopardy music played in my head the whole flight.

Liam Neeson walked into the sushi restaurant we were eating at in Los Angeles.

Edwin Edwards came into the store I was working at in college. Didn't say much and had a guy with him carrying a brief case. I assumed it was full of cash.

Pissed next to Carl Lewis at a urinal. Said "pissing next to Carl Lewis" out loud and made him laugh. I was hammered.

Almost chest bumped Lynn Swan walking around a corner in FQ in NOLA. I was saying excuse and 3 steps by him before my brain processed who he was.

met usc baseball coach rod dedeaux at a southern cal hotel on the top floor - his family was having a birthday party for him. I asked one of his family members if that was "the rod dedeaux" and they said yes would you like to meet him.
So I visited with him and his family for about 15 minutes - was offered some birthday cake - and accepted. Got a autograph and left - didn't want to outstay my welcome- we talked usc/lsu baseball - he loved Skip Bertamn.

Either John Wayne or Rock Hudson carried me across a cattle guard when then were filming a movie in the st francisville area - I was just a little shite so I didn't remember this event.
