    Ok, I'll add to my list. people i've met but NOT slammed into on a ski slope.

    kevin costner (i served him coffee everyday for a month when he was filming a movie here). nice man.

    scott glenn. ditto. also a nice nice man.


    val kilmer. NOT a nice man. a very very snotty self absorbed twit actually...

    arnold swartzeneger (he did one of those presidential fitness things at the school i taught at). nice man.

    Val Kilmer does seem a little snotty just from what I have seen in his interviews etc.


    Come on noone else here has autographs or pictures or anything? There has to be at least one other person....none of you all asked for sigs?

    I met all of the Philadelphia 76ers back in 1992, i think it was. My friend's dad was the chaplain of the team, so before the game, my friend and I and her dad, and all of the sixers who were religious, went into a room and prayed together...pretty cool. And i got to watch the game in the "wives" room...and got a bunch of autographs afterwards. I have also met a couple of Christian singers (and sang with them in concert...of course in a choir...NOT solo!) ...Micheal English, Steve Green, David Meece and Laurnel Harris.

    I have an autograph from Boyz 2 Men's "Slim"...his grandma went to a former church i used to attend.

    I also checked out (at a cash register, used to be a cashier), Philadelphia Flyers Eric Lindros.

    I feel like i am forgetting someone...if i remember i will post...

    Anyway, never met anyone too exciting, but, none the less, it is fun to meet any celebrity.

    No, not really. I was like 5 feet away from U2 and almost touched Bono's hand a few times...hehe...but that was a concert, and I guess that really doesn't count as "meeting" them.

    It's not very likely to meet anyone famous living in Utah.

    My brother was on an airplane with Richard Simmons once. lmao. Hey KayAnn and Rachel...pink shorts!

    I have met...

    Raheem the Dream... I got his autograph

    Richard Petty... I had my picture taken with him
    (and other NASCAR drivers but Richard Petty was my fav... my dad used to drive the clean up recker after wrecks at the race track)

    112.... didn't get their autograph

    ZZ TOP.... got their autograph

    Leonard Skynard.... got that autograph

    *when I met ZZ TOP and Leonard Skynard it was at a WCW wresteling match when the Phillips arena opened in Atlanta ... and for $200 you were guaranteed a seat in the first 4 rows and you got a souvenier (sp) chair, which you sat in during the match.... well we only paid $40 dollars for our seats and were seated in the 5th row right down from ZZ TOP and Leonard Skynard... so I got to hang out with them a little bit.. and when the show was over there was a souvenier chair just sitting there.. and I grabbed it and was going to take it home.. and ZZ TOP (sorry I don't know their names) came over and said they arrested some guy for trying to take a chair... so they led me out the back entrance where the wrestelers were..... SO I GOT TO MEET....

    Michael Buffer.... the guy that says.. Lets Get Ready to Rumble
    and some of the Nitro Girls.... and I just have to add in here that I got put on t.v. that night too It was only for about 15 seconds... but we just happened to be taping it at home so I have the tape of my 15 seconds of fame

    AND for any other (4-5)year back wresteling fans... I got to meet the lady who sewed GOLDBERGS tights when he wresteled!

    Okay first off have to say I wanna meet Seth Green!!!! okay and that's the end of that.

    As for famous people at my old store I actually got see a few of them. There was Jann Arden, who for some reason I was also spazzing about something when she was around. For those who don't know Jann Arden is a Canadian Singer songwriter.

    Jackie Chan...now he was da bomb, and sooooo nice. I liked him before I got to meet him, but I like him even more now after meeting him.

    Lanny McDonald...my all time hockey hero.

    A bunch of other hockey players who used to play in the NHL, some for the home team, others for teams elsewhere but who choose to live in Calgary. Guys like Ronnie Stern, Grant Fuhr, Kelly Hrudey.

    Oh and at the Stampede once I met Kim Stockwood...actually she ate some of my cotton candy. Kim Stockwoods another Canadian singer songwriter.
    Goonies never say die!



    Thanks Amy for the great sig!

    I went to an autograph signing for the Matthew Good Band. I got my CD and my CD jacket signed.

    I was in the movie Air Bud: Golden Receiver because we were sitting right next to the actresses.. didn't really get to "meet" them but it was still so cool!!!

    Can't really think of anything else
