Saw Slick Willys motorcade pass by in Arkansas headed to a razorback game.
Saw W in the White House during a jr high field trip to DC. We were outside the fence overlooking the lawn and he walked out and waved to people

Eisenhower (during the WW2 Louisiana Maneuvers in a parade down main street in Leesville.
Johnson - almost collided with his limo at NASA - I was trying to get out ahead of the traffic and came up to an intersection just as his limo was zipping along NASA Rd I.

Three Presidents. I slept through GHWB last public address in Jan '93 to the Corps of Cadets at West Point. Woke up just in time to hear him grant amnesty to the Corps.
I saw Bill Clinton give speech at the Class of 1993 graduation ceremony. We were threatened with severe consequences if we booed him when he took the stage.
I saw GHWB again in 1994 when he received the Thayer award. He gave a pretty good speech that evening conveying how his read my lips quote killed his re-election chances and the fact that he pissed off the Broccoli Farmers because he told the world he hated broccoli. This time I managed to stay awake :)
In 1995 I watched Dana Carvey give a great imitation of GHWB in a performance. Not sure if that counts.
In 2017 I saw GWB at USMA where he received the Thayer Award as well. This time I wasn't allowed in the mess hall to hear his speech.
Other notable individuals that I heard speak were Madeline Albright where one of my esteemed classmates asked/accused her of being part of some drug ring as part of Spiro Agnew's campaign or staff.
GEN Schwarzkopf spoke to my military history class about the lessons learned from Vietnam. I also learned that my Military History instructor was a war hero when then CPT H.R. McMaster gave a first hand account of the battle of 73 Easting.
I also met BG Foley, MOH Recipient, who was commandant of cadets in 1993-1994

2 - Clinton and Reagan.
Bill Clinton at the pilot lounge at the fbo at Little Rock air port. SS came in looked around, ran the bomb dog around once and in comes Bill. He got a drink and we shot the Sh*t for about 15 minutes. It was the day that Dukakis quit - the day he knew he had the nomination.
He is the most characteristic person I've ever met. I don't like him as president but dam.
Reagan at LSU for my graduation. I was about 20 yards from him at one point.
