Unexpected encounters with celebrities

I saw Alec Baldwin yesterday. Our eyes met and he looked at me as if he knew me. I then realized he was just admiring my hair.

I saw John Krasinski (Jim on The Office) at WholeFoods in Kailua, HI.
We were in the same isle and he complimented my choice of almond butter and asked me where to get it.

Obscure as hell and really a CSB - but Sammie Smith, former FSU running back, played for the Dolphins. Hung out at our tailgate before the UM game, I think mainly because we recognized him and offered him free food and beer. Told some great stories. He got convicted in 1996 of being one of the key players in a huge cocaine ring, supplied most of Central Florida. http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1995-09-16/news/9509160176_1_sammie-smith-zellwood-drug-dealer

A few of us couldn't stop giggling though. The older brother of the host of the tailgate was one of the lead cops on the drug bust and actually helped put him in the cop car. Brother usually comes to the tailgates but missed that week. So we sent him pics of us with Sammie.

Nice

Which one?

Lucas was a little, whatever.
Christy I've seen often and once sat beside her at Carnegie Hall.
Williams was very, **** yeah! Huge fan. All I could do to not go over and gush.
Jabbar was interesting. Sitting down he was about a head taller than everyone near him so hard to miss, but then he stop up at the end and the performers acknowledged him. He looked great.

The first openly Gay wine critic?

As I recall, Parker has been married to a rather beautiful age-appropriate woman for decades

I once shared a cab from the airport in Chicago with 80s Pornstar Seka.
It was in the 80s. She actually looked great in clothes. (In case any SFers care,
I was wearing a Norman Hilton dark brown tweed suit, an Andre Oliver shirt
and a British Warm form Chipp (Winston Tailors) and probably Church's
semi brogues)

Most people in NYC wouldn't I guess.

Dr. Cooley is a very famous heart surgeon.

And Parker as I said is a historic big city Mayor of sorts.

Saw Brooks Reed of the Houston Texans Friday night eating dinner at The Roost. He was with 2 fairly pretty women.

You should have asked him why his team is doing so poorly.

My first encounter was on my honeymoon where I shared an elevator with Sean Connery, I almost didn't recognize him at the time because he was bald and up until that time I thought he had hair. We spoke for a couple floors. I had dinner with Jack Nicklaus, I shared an entire floor of a hotel with Jay-Z (admittedly on accident), I nearly knocked Paul McCartney on his ass coming off the private floor of a hotel (I was not paying attention and ran into him with my 200 pound frame as I was boarding an elevator and he was exiting).

Those are my big four. Dinner with Jack was the best as I am a huge golfer.

My second cousins are the Quaid brothers so I left them out.

I wanted to yell out Clay Mathews since he sort of looks like him but Brooks is a big dude. I figured it was better to not get beat down in the middle of dinner.
