Many people have had a brush with someone famous (even if only at arm's length).
* Loni Anderson's daughter taught at my high school
* Keving Costner paid a visit to my drama class while filming the Bodygurad
*Michael Jordan and Jason Kidd each bought a cappucino from a coffee cart I worked at while attending college
So who is your celebrity connection? Who have you met, or who do you know?

For those who don't know who Floyd Cramer is, he played the piano on all of Elvis' recordings, on almost every famous old (and some new) country song ever written, as well as having an extensive solo career. His biggest hit was Last Date in 1960. I have a picture of us somewhere, I'll have to publish on here.
One afternoon, I was walking down Fifth Avenue and I noticed these people walking along wearing ear pieces. They were following two men who were chatting with a woman as they walked along. When they came to a cross street, the woman left and both men turned to wave at her and I saw that the two men were Dudley Moore and Paul Reiser. They were in town filming the movie Crazy People.
Once while I was walking to Central Park I passed Jackie Mason. This was when he had his talk show and I think that was the studio where they filmed it.
In Atlanta, I once yelled at Elton John. Back when there was still a Tower Records at Lenox, I went there to buy Christmas presents. As I was going through the store, I spotted someone who I was pretty sure was Elton John -- he has a home in Atlanta. I immediately made a beeline toward him and when I was only a few feet away I said loudly, "Elton John!" He looked at me like I was crazy and walked a little faster to get away from me.
Ah, the memories.
I bet that was an unforgettable experience.
a fast food restaurant. I shook hands with McGovern when he was runnign for president.
