I met Prince Edward when he came to my little island when I was a school kid, twice, and I shook his hand. My sister and brother were invited to the Prince Edward Ball and sis danced with him. I remembered all the schools wore leafs like we were heathens or something and waited outside his plane to welcome him to our island haha. Pathetic really but it was meant to be something traditional yet my ancestors wore nothing in their days lol. Had a glimpse of Queen Elizabeth when I was 6, she came over in 1974 to open out international airport. No the royal family are boring lol

Met Kenny Rogers as a teenager. Us kids thought he was santa claus. bigsmile us kids sang his song, "Islands In The Stream" 100's of times happy

Met David Bowie when he came to my island to do that boring movie of his, "Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence" ---remember his fringe or how he does his hair, wow the kids back then started sporting his style haha

Met heaps of New Zealand and Australian actors, footy players, singers, rugby players, atletes over the years. Yea met heaps of famous Rugby players from NZ, England, Argentina, Aussies on my island too. It's been so long I can't remember who they are now haha

I remembered falling in love with Johnny Walker, a kiwi athlete. He used to play golf next to my house and I told myself when I grow up I am going to marry him. I was 8 I think bigsmile i was a crazy kid bigsmile When I got older i realised he was not as handsome as I thought haha

I was 11 years old and sat next to Jesse Owens on a flight to florida. I got bumped to first class and there he was. I had just watched him in the Olympics. We was very nice sat and talked and gave autograph. Oh crap dated myself. I am 38 and he and Pele were the big stars of the day.

Well, I have met Bob Hope, George Jones, Tammy Wynett, Richard Roundtree, Jacquken Bissett and Jeanie C Riley. Also was on a security detail guarding, who now is the Vice President, when he was Secretary of Defense. And as others have already said in here, they are just normal people in their private lives.

I've met several wrestlers over the years, but by and large, the ABSOLUTE nicest one you'll ever hope to meet is Leapin' Lanny Poffo. Met him at the matches in the late 70s. What a super nice guy! His "Genius" persona in WWF fit him well, too. One of the most intellegent people I've been fortunate enough to talk to.

As far as TV/Movie stars go, I met the late Pat Morita(Karate Kid movies)in Disney World back in 1994. He was on a tight schedule, but still took a minute to talk to me, and even posed for a picture. Another super nice person.

I grew up in a neighborhood in Towson Maryland in the 1960's where Johnny Unitas, John Mackey and Don Shula lived. I went to high school with Sean Landetta--ex-punter for many teams, mainly NY Giants
