Likely he’ll be in Nashville on April 17 for the NRA Meetings. He never misses

I was ten feet from him in the box we were guests in during his first Army Navy game. I got a picture of him holding up his 45 Army jersey and posted it here.
ETA: We've attended a bunch of NRA conventions over the years but I doubt we'll make Nashville this year since I cancelled my membership and joined the GOA.

Well when I was in middle school in 1986 Reagan(hero territory) came to speak at a rally for Guy Hunt in Birmingham. My class/grade had invites and we were geared up. I had a neat sign I had made... I was ready. When we go there to go in, we were stopped and told some other group had taken our spots. Those sorry frickers!
So anyway we had to wait around outside sitting on our asses, dejected until the busses could come back to get us. The only neat thing was we got to watch the snipers on the roof of the BJCC arena.
So following that, my Mom and I sent letters off to the attendees as in Reagan, Gov Hunt, the Senator at the time...I want to say it was Jeremiah Denton...we didn't expect to hear anything from our let down story BUT low and behold we got replies back from all three. Got signed pics of Reagan back to hand out...of course they were stamped sig's but who cares at that age. Gov Hunt sent us a signed letter. Denton sent something too...anyway that was the closest I came to seeing one aside from Air Force One a time.e or two with Clinton and Bush...and Clinton's motorcade as well.

I got to shake Bill Clinton's hand and make brief small talk back in the early 2000's..he made an appearance at the Metairie Barnes & Noble for his first book tour. In my defense, I was young and dumb and just wanted to meet a President.
I also got within about 20 yards of W after Katrina when he made one of his many "I'm totally sincerely sorry that the government sucks so completely bad I promise" stops to the city.
I was also in the Superdome for the Domecoming game when Bush the Elder did the coin toss, if that counts.
Do hope to make it to see Trump one day.

That's awesome scrooster. I could be wrong, but aren't you the old Army Airborne guy with a ton of jumps and service to this country, or is that someone else?
Either way,

Did you sniff your finger after shaking his hand?

Had a handshake and hello with Gerald Ford after a bar association meeting in Florida. He was there as a guest speaker to a small group (<100) about ten years after he lost to The Hopeless Wanker.

Saw Trump in Biloxi in 2018. Saw H.W. In ‘91 in DC. Saw H.W. a second time when he came to LSU for the war memorial dedication; think that was in 1999.
My cousin met Trump and was given a challenge coin last year in DC. He was receiving an award from the Navy and was flown all of the way from Japan to DC to get it. He met the President before the ceremony and got to speak with him for a couple of minutes. Said it was the greatest moment of his life!
