Famous people you met?

I met His Royal Highness The Duke of Edibourgh(what a load of BS he's a nice enough guy,but that Royal crap should of been phased out a century ago)on a range once.Shows how things have changed,he was allowed to speak to us,guns in hand,and only 2 security guys milling aroundTry and get near him with more than flower in hand now tho!
 
That's my wife with George Thoughgood....I guess we all gotta get old sometime.

Oh boy.
No way I'll get all of 'em.

I've been one-on-one in the ring with George Foreman.
Scrummed Don King in an airport.
Busted up Amanda Marshall's hotel room.
Chased the Rolling Stones through the streets of Edmonton, and then got an interview with Mick Jagger.
Stopped Rev. Jesse Jackson outside a hotel in Houston for a one-on-one interview.
Had Fifty Cent's bodyguard check ME out before he met me in a hotel room for an interview.
Pam Anderson.
Tommy Chong not Tommy Lee.
Cher.
Every Canadian Prime Minister since Trudeau.
Billy Idol.
Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip.
At least 1000 NHL players including Bobby Orr, Wayne Gretzky, Vladislav Tretiak, Mark Messier, Mike Modano, Gordie Howe, Bobby Hull, Brett Hull....
Hundreds of NFL, NBA and MLB and Olympic Gold medal athletes.

Most I have met only briefly through the course of my work in television news. Few I have had more than a few minutes with. None have I been so enamored with that I felt starstruck. I respect the level of success each has achieved. But by far the most impressive people I have met have been everyday people who have struggled through impossible grief and survived to smile another day.
 
Being an airport bum, Chuck Yeager, Scott Crossfield, Buzz Aldrin, Eugune Cernian, Bob Hoover, Jimmy Dolittle, Hoot Gibson, Story Musgrove, Dick Rutan, and several other test pilots and astronauts........
 
We met and talked to John Schneider from the Dukes Of Hazard at a small Pub in DC. at the Rolling Thunder. Super nice, had a great conversation with him. He did the concert for the troops on Memorial Day
