Is world tour counted? Though there are bodyguards around them. I can't get to talk or meet them. Just a view from far distance :(

I met John Blankenship online.  We played wow together for years, I was always putting together raids for him.  I found out what he did because I overheard him giving an interview on speed, same name same voice.  Now every year he tours in my area he brings me out to hang for the weekend.  I've also met Danica Patrick, she's best friends with his wife.  I am one of a VERY few that have their updated personal cell phone numbers.  Danica doesn't text a whole lot with me, but John does especially since we are pvping together.

I almost literally bumped into Chuck Norris at a Wal-Mart in Tennesse and lived to tell the tale. :)  As for actually meeting someone famous, no.  The closest I've come to meeting someone famous was meeting one of the owners of Rhythm & Hues.  They had just won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects for making Babe the pig talk.

These aren't the most famous people, what whatever.

 

Everyone at Hidden Path (the guys who made defense grid and csgo)

 

Nick Walker (a weatherman for the Weather Channel, he's related to me)

 

And to anyone who's heard of "The Invisible War" (it's a documentary), I'm in it.

 

I'm also hoping to see some of the people from Linus Media Group at PAX Prime this year.
