The closest I've got to seeing celebs is in concerts :/

 

Don't worry, it's pretty overrated and actually pathetic (I think) to get excited over meeting celebrities.

Due to where I work I've met a ton of soap stars, a couple of celebrities including Jerry O'Connell once during the holidays he came thru my checkout lane and spent a couple hundred dollars.

 

Musicians:

All the members of Aerosmith (Steven Tyler 3 times over) He even signed a picture of me and him and has a scarf that a friend made on one of his mic stands.

 

Jon Bon Jovi last March at a photo op thru his fan club. I love my group photo because I was standing next to him with my hand on his shoulder. But for him to turn to me, make eye contact, smile and nod to walk over to him was PRICELESS. Totally had me off guard because I was NOT expecting that from him. Best night of my life.

[TJ27]

I saw Willford Brimley (The Diabetes guy) in D.C. once. He was having Chicken Fried Steak w/ gravy, hashbrowns, eggs (with a crap load of salsa), and a Coke...Guess his diabetes went away.
