Evil Knievel was a freind of the plant manager where I worked at one point and I got to do some repair welding on his trailor tongue. He also offered to buy my 69 XLCH Sporty as that is the bike he was jumping with at the time. Of course I said no.....

I was fishing the river in my home town when I was about 13 and Little Texas came down and fished with us for about 2 hours. Got autographs and backstage passes to their concert that night. I never told them that I dont care for country music tho. haha

I recieved a call one morning from a brokerage firm requesting to see one of my listings. The broker informed me that he had an out of state buyer that wanted to purchase a 2.75 Mil house sight unseen. About an hour later I recieved a offer with the name Peyton Manning on it. Three weeks later I sat at closing with him. After closing the buyers agent had a showing he needed to attend. Peyton asked if i would walk him through the home. In all I spent about 4 hours with the guy, and you couldnt ask for a more down to earth guy. "for my troubles" he hooked me up with touchdown club tickets for 3 games for me and my sons.

I met Scooby Doo at a kids fair at my local cable company. He's much taller in person.

Met Mikey Mantle twice. Once as a kid and again had a beer with him at a golf tournament.
Literally bumped into Muhammed Ali, had to back up and say excuse me, at the airport in NYC.

Met & shook hands (twice) with Muhammad Ali when I was in the US Navy in '96 in U.A.E (United Arab Emirates). Some guys from the ship who were staying in a hotel out there found out he was also staying there & sliped a note under his door inviting him to come take a tour of our ship. Well, he showed up! Not a tall guy at all, just wide as a barnyard stable door!

Met Jon Bon Jovi at a McDonalds in Delaware. They were on their way back to NJ from a show in OC MD. This was way back in 1984 long before anyone really knew who they were.

Drank a beer and shot the chit with Ray Evernham back in 1998 at a club in Dover DE. Also had a beer with Kenny Wallace one time.
