That's very cool. I met a local news TV weather reporter once. He was at Toys R Us, so that was neat.

Supposedly I met Reba McEntire when I was a child. I don't remember that.

Not many and prob not anyone super big.

As a baby I met Shari Lewis (the Lamb Chop puppet/kids show lady), not that I remember at all. lol

Jason and Grant from Syfy's Ghost Hunters when they did a meet and greet the day before they were to do a live Halloween show not terribly far from me. (Then my friend and I casually stuck around for a little while and happened to see a lot of the other people plus with Josh Gates.)

Not sure where to start... a LOT of people, both quite famous and not quite so famous. The most famous out of the bunch? Hmm... Carrie Fisher, Sean Astin, Hilary Swank, Lance Henrikson, and Leonard Nimoy.

I used to live in Nashville, so I met / ran into a lot of Country Music stars and other musicians. Some before they got famous. Accidentally bumped into Cher once in a famous Honky Tonk. I thought her bodyguard was gonna stoke out.

Also have spent a lot of time in Vegas and I almost always meet some celebrity while there.

Mostly bands. I met Flogging Molly on my 28th birthday. I met most of Killswitch Engage and we played guitar hero together at the Best Buy next to the venue. I also met the band's Nonpoint, Jackyl, The Veer Union and Jpop star Salia. As for non musical I met Michael Moore, Robert Axelrod ( voice of Lord Zedd and Finster from the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) and author Max Brooks. Robert Axelrod said I had a great voice for voice acting he was holding a seminar that day and I got to read a script and he gave me pointers. Too bad I don't live in California.

Well, I saw The Wiggles when I was younger. Technically, I didn't really meet them up close.

Currently been to three of their concerts. I remember the first one I've been to had Greg before he left because of his illness.

Mostly wrestlers and hockey players. Had some family friends who worked the ACC and Skydome when I was a teenager, so I'd get into everything and then go backstage/to the locker room afterwards.

I also know Jackie Richardson very well. She's been my neighbor for years and I've known her since I was like...9. She's done a lot of stuff, mostly guest spots and things of that sort, because she focuses a lot on musicals. If anyone recognized her from TV/film it'd probably be as Mr. T's aunt in the show T and T. Anyways, that's how I met Mr. T.

Does Brad Keselowski count?

This was back in 2011, I think, the year before he won a Sprint Cup championship. He'd won the Nationwide Series championship the year before, and since this was back before he got famous enough to have much for merchandise, I'd made a shirt with iron on's from Hobby Lobby. He was talking to the fan a couple of spaces in front of me when he caught sight of it, and he asked me if I'd made it. I don't know who was more excited, him or me, because he looked like he might start orbiting the moon! So not only did I get my hat signed, but I also got a high five from one of my favorite drivers. :3
