A few, but the most impressive was Shaq.  The guy towered over the crowd....and then he got off of his stool....good lord that was an enormous person.  I was 3 people away from getting my basketball signed before they closed the booth though :(    All I got was a handshake (more like him shaking my 10 year old arm around).

He was dating my friends sister six or eight years back.  I had no idea who he was and I went over to my friends house for a dinner party and spent the night and in the morning my dad came and picked us up with my dog to go to a water park but the dog wasn't going to work out.  So we tethered him to a tree outside my friends house.  He ended up chewing through the rope a while later and was running out into the highway (right next to the house) and Bode saw him and ran and got him.  hehe

quite a few pro sports players :) i stalk them in Minnesota haha i love sports

Vikings training camp i shook randy moss's hand and at the end he gave me his sweaty practice glove which was pretty sweet

just last weekend i ran into gus ferotte at best buy at the mall of america who was purchasing 6 tv's for his offensive line, and also i stood next to ryan longwell (kicker for the vikings) at caribu coffee we talked football and xbox 360 hah it was way sweet.

almost every twins player from the year 2000 and up, but thats because of twins fest.

but my favorite by far is riding the elevator with Mark Calaway, or as everyone else knows him as The Undertaker in the wwe ha, it was at the hilton in the twin cities it was a family renunion and we held it up there, and the wwe was in town the same weekend...and oh my that was so amazing ha, you know seeing how big he is on tv is one thing, but seeing him in person thats crazy he is like 6'10...9 inches taller than me and just HUGE ha, but probably one of hte nicest guys i have ever met...i wish i would have askd him to do thing where he rolls his eyes back but i was just to shocked ha.

John Kerry?

He's my grandparents neighbor in Nantucket. Back when he was running for president (I was like 10) we rode our little razor scooters down to the church to see him. We got there and there was a big mob to see him. My sister goes "HERE TAKE THIS", and hands me the scooter. I'm lik wtf but whatever. I make my way towards JOhn Kerry with two razor scooters in my hand. I get about 5 feet from him before The Secret Service guys grab me and take me away, saying "I can't have those by him"

I was so pissed because my bitch 8 year old sister and cousin got to shake his hand, but not me.

but it makes a good story so idc

I gotta get this off my chest.

I was skiing in Zermatt Switzerland, and my friend was ski guiding for Tom Cruise, he comes in to this amazing bar near the bottom of the mountain, starts buying everyone (me included) drinks and stuff, yet when it's time to pay he refuses, saying that he's famous and they'll get more customers, so he doesn't need to pay.

Such a dick move.
