I saw Ashton Kutcher from about 15 feet away. He was surrounded by other people. I didn't meet him, but I got to see him. It was pretty cool because he was smiling and looked like he was having a good time. He wasn't upset like a lot of celebrities get when they're surrounded by fans.

I saw him in March of 2006. I was 16. It was at the local fair in South Texas. It's a popular spot for Spring Break.

Oh and I got to meet David Robinson the retired SA Spurs player. He went to a church that I visited that day. He was standing right next to me and I was thinking "wow what a tall man!" My brother was looking at him like a little kid meeting his hero. I quickly realized who he was and asked if he could take a picture with my brother. He did! I took that pic and my brother was really excited. LOL This was in 2014.
 
I met Philip Ryken about six or seven years ago and heard him preach. I was very impressed with him both as a Christian and a pastor. I don't know how famous he is in other places, but in our denomination he's pretty well-thought of. I shook his hand :rolleyes:.
 
Gunter from WIVK at a gas station(don't remember his first name)
 
I have met a couple actually, just when I was about six years old so it's been a while. It was Sam Elliott and Ernest Borgnine....they thought I was cute and adorable. I was also really close to meeting the late Robin Williams too
 
Met Bart Starr and the opening of an athletic store in Newport News Va, about 20 years ago. Met Pat Robinson at his studio on a school field trip 30 years ago. Ate lunch with Jerry Falwell in the Liberty University cafeteria about 11 years ago. Met Andrea Parker at the Farm Fresh Extravaganza about 20 years ago. Met Al Sharpton while doing off duty security about 8 years ago. I've talked to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Alan Combs, and Adam Corolla on the phone before. James Woods liked one of my tweets once. I met Eric Holder and Eric Estrada at a law enforcement conference about 6 years ago. I went with my uncle to a star trek convention once, and shook hands with the guy that played the russian. I can't remember his name, star trek is alright, but a little too techno babble for me. Oh wait, Chekhov, I remember now. That was 25 years ago. My grandmother sat next to chuck norris in first class once. She chatted him up, I count that one as a third party meet.
 
I used to hang out with the NY Yankees in '53 and '54. My mother was a knockout, and dated a few of them. (No, I didn't really get to go on any of their dates.)

Yes! Well, kinda. I didnt meet him face to face, but I did have an exchange with him : p

So yeah, I have a favorite musician, hes a big inspiration to me on a musical level. I found his bandcamp page one day, and saw that it gave me the option to email him. So I did : p I didnt even think hed really read it, but he actually took the time to respond! It was pretty cool : p

I actually still have it, so Ill just copy paste what I wrote and his response here-

You are my all time favorite musician. I first heard you when I heard AFK on the tv. Ive always claimed bass guitar can be more than just a simple rhythm instrument in the background of music, and you have really inspired me and my playing. You are my biggest influence in music, and I adore your work with every group youve played with.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and thanks for all the effort and work you have done.

His response-

No no Jess
Thank you ! for caring and being inspired, keep up the music :-)

I was super excited when I saw this email and shared it with everyone I knew, haha. Was a pretty cool day.

I saw Ashton Kutcher from about 15 feet away.

I was a big fan of That 70s show growing up as a teenager, so that would have been pretty cool to me : p
 
grades 7-12 and a trip to Paris with a guy named Dave Pierce. some of you might know who he is.
 
BTW..... I resent the "Whopper" comment. I have been known to tell something two or three different ways, to keep from lying about it.
