Ran into (literally) Alice Cooper at a Suns game a few years ago.

I lived in Vegas for most of my life so I've met a lot of people. Tons of boxers, Hulk Hogan and the fam (THEY ARE HUUUGE!!!...All of them...), Carrot Top, kissed Chuck Liddell, and I'm sure there's more, but I can't think of any others right now....

Oh, I met Ann Richards once when she was running for Govenor. I was like 8.

I had just told my mom that I wanted to be the govenor of Texas someday, so my mom told Ann Richards that.

She got right down next to me and said, "you can be anything you want to be, honey."

I served popcorn/drinks to Rob Lowe and Rob Reiner. I asked Rob Lowe if he knew he looked like Rob Lowe...he said "I hope so or my driver's license would be invalid" so I demanded to see his ID...yup. It was Rob Lowe. Worst moment in my 16 year old life.
My daughter went to school and played soccer with the daughter of Chris DeGarmo (who I only knew as "Riley's dad" until one of my friends FLIPPED OUT when she saw him...)

While working? None.

But I've stumbled across (or into, in the case of Christopher Walken) a few here and there.
