Most the people I have got autographs of, I'm sure not too many people have heard of...they are football players from the 80's Cleveland Browns...people like Webster Slaughter, Mike Pagel, etc.


When I was younger my aunt and grandma tooks us to a circus to see tiny tim. I think they were disappointed none of us wanted his autograph. Tip Toe through WHAT tulips?!?

I never got his autograph, I lived in the same dorm with Danny Fortson...he now plays in the NBA.


Although I have never met her, a lot of people I know went to school with Katie Holmes. Ralph helped choreograph a musical she was in when he was in college and she was in high school. And we can honestly say our Haunted House scared the crap out of her!!!

I grew up with and went to grade school and high school with Janet Lynn (she was once the Tara Lipinski.)

I have seen in concert....
Cat Stevens (before he converted)
Alice Cooper
Three Dog Night
Frank Sinatra
and.......

Elvis Presley....in his last ever Chicago concert -- I didn't live here at the time (about a year before his death...)

I still have my ticket stub!

I knew I fogot someone...I remember meeting The Moffits at the Stampede when I was way younger..actually so were they. If I remember correctly they were like seven or eight and kind of snot nosed, spoiled rotten brats. I'm not sure if they're like that now, but I know they live near Calgary.

I shook hands with Telly Savalas some 20 or more years ago. He was shorter than I expected him to be but had an incredibly sexy voice and said "who loves ya baby..."

(I can hear the younger crowd's joint cry of TELLY WHO? )

I remember Telly Savalas. I guess that means I am no longer a member of the "younger crowd"

I've had the pleasure of meeting a famous person, and I can't for the life of me remember his name right now!!! It was many years ago in a small bar in Green Bay. Metallica had played at the local arena and my brother and I went to our local hangout afterwards. Lo and behold, who comes strolling into the bar but Lars Ulrich (drummer) and...James Hetfield (I remembered!!!!) the lead singer. Well, needless to say, at the time I was absolutely in love with James Hetfield, and here he was live as day! I bought him a couple of drinks and talked to him for awhile. He seemed nice enough but afterwards I thought "What am I buying drinks for him for? Shouldn't it be the other way around?"

Anway, it was pretty cool, and my brother was so awed he didn't say anything the whole time.

Tubby that is AWESOME! I saw Metallica at the Weenie Roast and let me tell you , they are just awesome! They are great live!


I just remembered someone else though from the Weenie Roast and it was the the guy from LIT. He looked just like my first boyfriend Jeremy, and I think that's his name too but that's besdies the point lol, he was getting Del Taco with his girlfriend, wide open for anyone to come up to him and he was so nice. I got their sigs too.


He was the nicest guy and his girlfriend didn't mind him signing something for me, she was really nice also. I'll remember all who I meet once I get my stuff from the house. I didn't get to go last night darnet but tonight we better go. I want my makeup lol!

I met them a long time ago when they were snot nosed brats too. I don't know why I had an obsession with them for awhile (at least it was a short time!!!!)

I have no clue what happened to them.

I don't know if any of you know him, but almost 4 years ago, I shook hands with our Prime Minister, called Guy verhofstadt!

As about concerts and singers, I danced about 1m a way from Helmut Lotti (is known in some parts of the USA!; he was singing a tribute to Elvis and looked at me during his complete song!! WAW!!!
I was also at a concert of Gordon Lightfoot(Royal Albert Hall in London), Crosby Stills & Nash, Little River band, and some belgian singers like Axelle red(sings in French).

i got to shake the hand of the former president gerald ford (1974-1976) in 1977 while i was in college near his former home town of grand rapids michigan(after living there i understand why he moved to california-hard winters). i also met ralph nader, long before he became a politician and ted sorenson, speechwriter for president kennedy(1960-1963)

Oh man, I checked back at this post too late.

I loved Blink 182. My favorite was also Tom and I love Adam's Song, All the Small Things and Dammit. Great songs

The only concert I ever went to was the Backstreet Boys ones. I know, no one really likes them but I used to be one of their 'biggest fans' I HATE HATE HATE Nsync and all of those other boy bands. Backstreet Boys, I dunno. They were my first favorite band...so they're an exception.

I had the chance to go to the Our Lady Peace concert (I love them) but didn't.

I do not now the actors name, and I have not seen the movie, but last summer, we were having dinner at Emerils' in Orlando and at the next table was the guy fron Center Stage. A couple of the people we were with were thrilled to meet him, talked to him and he as very nice. After he left, they stole his napkin from his table ( cloth, not paper) and took it as a souvenir to a couple high school girls. Watching them fight and I mean throw each other into walls over it, was hysterical!! ( No one was hurt, I promise) In the end, they cut it and half and each kept a piece.
