I met Rob Schneider last year when he was in Iraq. Nice guy too.

I met Cal Ripken at an autograph signing and talked with him for a minute and then at a later session, he recognized me and asked how my Pony League team was doing (we were 10-0) at that point :)

I had the opportunity to meet Kurt Angle when I was a wrestler in High School. One of the coaches had wrestled with him at Worlds back in the mid 90s. Another nice guy. Very focused too.

And I shook hands with Jim Rome at the 'Nati Tour Stop in 2003 :)

Ok, Mike, it's WAR!! :)

Let's see, I met Larry Fitzgerald, Wide Receiver of the Arizona Cardinals this summer while I was deployed to Spain.

Ran into Ron Jeremy at the Phoenix Airport in 2001.

Met Deborah Carty Deu, Miss Universe 1985, thanks to a friend of mine from college.

Met David Robinson, former NBA superstar, while I was stationed in San Antonio.

And, shamefully, I have met Dingy Harry Reid, when my wife was a teacher in Nevada.
