I cooked breakfast lunch and dinner for two days for Roland Martin last summer. It was fun to meet him. He had a lot of great fishing stories to tell. I wish I could have been his fishing guide. They were fishing private bass ponds. I also think they went to Jordanelle Res also. I really wish Al Linder would come out so I could pick his brain.

I had season tickets to the Jazz for 15 years so I met Karl Malone a few times, He was really nice every time I talked to him, But the best one was when he had his store on 7th east 2100 south, I went in there to look at basketball shoes and he was there being mobed by a bunch of kids, so I just looked at some shoes, He walked up behind me and asked if he could help me, Shook my hand. I said I wanted to buy the same shoe he happened to be playing in, looked at my feet and said size 13? He was right! Said he'd be right back. He laced then up for me and put them on my feet!!! I couldn't believe that part! I had to buy them! He signed the shoes and the box, And gave me a signed hat for my wife saying that now I'd be safe after buying a hundred dollar pair of shoes! He was really funny, and gave all the kids autographed stuff... Will post pics later...

[size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]One night many years ago while working for Eastern Airlines [/#008000][/font][/size][size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]I met this gal waiting at a stairway ramp leading to a flight marked [/#008000][/font][/size][size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]for Miami. Thinking that she was a stewardess in civvies dead heading [/#008000][/font][/size][size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]I started up a conversation. When I asked her for a date she had to decline since she lived on the west coast. I then realized that she was a VIP passenger [/#008000][/font][/size][size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]and decided to back off. As I was leaving the area one of my associates [/#008000][/font][/size][size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]said "so what did Gloria DeHaven [actress] have to say?" I met her again a few [/#008000][/font][/size][size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]years ago where she was headlining at the Palm Springs Follies. Needless [/#008000][/font][/size][size 4][font "Garamond"][#008000]to say she didn't remember our encounter. Wonder why?[/#008000][/font][/size]

I met Garth Brooks this past summer. We live about a mile from each other but have never ran into him until this time.

We have a place in town that has those huge inflatable things that kids jump on and I was there with my 5 year old for her end of school party. Garth and Trisha were there with Garth's oldest daughter for her soccer teams party.

They were just standing over in the corner with no one paying any attention to him so I went over and talked to them. It was like we were old friends as we talked a good 20 minutes. This was about 3 days after he was on some country music awards show so we joked about that for a bit and chatted about his concerts around the world.

I told my son there that I had met him and he didn't see him. For an 8 year old to say I want to meet Garth was pretty cool, so we went back up to him. So then my son got to meet Garth, Trisha, and Garth's daughter Taylor.



This pic is my wife and I with him. Trisha snuck away before we could get her in the photo.

[font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4]Still working for EAL, one evening as I was passing the VIP sitting area I noticed a woman reading a book and lying at her feet her dog looked like it was sleeping. As a fairly accomplished mimic of sounds I barked like a yapping dog at which time the woman looked up and said in a thick German accent “Did you disturbed my dog?” much to my surprised I said “I terribly sorry Ms Detrick [Marlina Detrick the actress] for disturbing you and your pet. Boy did I leave in a hurry.[/size][/#008000][/font]

I met Sylvester Stallone in Park City in 1996 while celebrating my 21st birthday.

He overheard my friends and I toasting and he came over and asked who's birthday it was. Once he found out that it was my 21st he invited us to join his group. We ended up clubbing around Park City with him all night long, and he would not let us pay for a thing.

Very nice guy, and a very rememberable birthday.

[center][font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4]Prior to retiring from Philip Morris I was privy to attend a number of functions that brought me in contact with several celebrities. On one such occasion my late wife and I were sitting in our companies suite at the Marlboro 500 held in Ontario, Ca. Since we were the prime sponsor we were located right on the starting line and next to our suite were the celebrities. My wife noticed George Hamilton [actor] whom she had a crush on and asked me to sneak a picture of him. Well I went to the rail separating out suites and asked George if he would pose with my wife for a picture. So he says “Come on over here Mary, your husband wants a photo of us. She nearly flipped out. BTW here is a picture of them.[/size][/#008000][/font][font "Times New Roman"] [/font]

I was a police officer in Dublin Ohio. During the infamous Muirfield Golf tournament back in the early 80's. I was patrolling when I got behind a car that was weaving. I thought it best to pull the car over and check out the driver to be sure they were not DUI. I stopped the car, walked up to the window and asked the driver for his license. Lo and behold it was a very unhappy Jack Nicklaus !! He was the head and the host of the tournament, and I didn't bother to check him any further. Imagine arresting the head and leader of the famous golf tournament that was in progress !! I guess the elite like to party as much as anyone else. I bid him a good evening and we went our separate ways.
