<p>I saw Samuel L. Jackson in the Atlanta airport, with his family. i had no idea who he was at the time being like eight, but my brother knew, and we got his autograph (i think we lost it) and my brother asked if he could take his picture but he said no.</p>
<p>i met the like, great-great-great grandchildren of William Randolph Hearst, that yellow journalism guy. does that count? lol. </p>
<p>well i met sarah hughes but i didnt recognize her, because she had grown out her hair. so i never got her autograph :(</p>
<p>William Shatner... but honestly, who hasn't met William Shatner?</p>
<p>Does Lt. Gov. (and now Senate candidate) Michael Steele count (his son's a friend of mine and goes to my school)? Guess not. I met Amy Lee from Evanescence once.</p>
<p>What a freaking dumb thread. Seriously, I have seen my share, but I had to post on this one. They're famous, wow. They're normal people...well, I can't say that about the ones who are scientologists (john travolta, tom cruise, ISAAC HAYES [damn you isaac, youre so cool])...</p>
<p>But yeah, this one time Martin Sheene held open the flap to a mailbox for me. He had a cigar in his mouth and he smiled. Later that day I killed his dog. </p>
<p>True story ('cept for the dog part)</p>
<p>simple explanation why this thread was created: boredom/procrastination</p>
<p>Hell, isn't that the reason why some of us have the post counts we do?</p>
<p>dont bring me into this, Mr. 1,098.</p>
<p>i have met quite a few famous people:
chuck finley(used to be pitched for anahiem angels)'s daughter used to go to my elementary school.
kobe bryant (la lakers) goes to my church
i shaked andre agassi's hand at the mercedes benz cup
i met lindsay davenport at the supermarket
ivan Radenovic (arizona basketball) i saw him at blockbuster
JS Giguere (goalie for mighty ducks) is one of my friend's neighbor so i see him occasionaly
etc.......i have met many others at sports games but i am tired of writing them all out.</p>
<p>If you have to explain who somebody is, then that person isn't famous. </p>
<p>Observe:
Yesterday, I met Tom Cruise while I was walking my dog
vs.
Yesterday I met Matt Frewer (Russ Thompson from 'Honey I Shrunk the Kids') while on my way to school. </p>
<p>One of these people isn't famous.</p>
<p>He's a famous actor. OH, BRICK WALL TO SARCASM </p>
<p>Fight fire with fire, I always say. Unless something's burning, then use water.</p>
<p>This might not technically count, since I was a baby at the time, but it's a good story! My mum (and baby me) met Muhammed Ali and his posse at an airport. Ali held me and kissed my forehead. Also, according to my mum, who's pretty trustworthy, one of his cronies came on to her. So funny....</p>
<p>Do you have a younger brother?</p>
<p>I met me,</p>
<p>I think thats famous, enough</p>
<p>Seriously: I saw Hilary Clinton once</p>
<p>I have my list:</p>

<p>I met Michael Douglas, and Tobey Maguire when they filmed a movie up the street from my house. "Wonder Boys" it was called.</p>
<p>I also met numerous Steelers...Bettis, Bradshaw, Roethlisberger, Franco, Reed, Swann, Ward, Maddox, Randel El...hmm few others...they always show up at Dick's at a mall 30 mins from my house to sign autographs so I frequent there a lot. :)</p>
