Who are the top 10 most famous people that you've met?
Not merely seen, but actually interacted with?
Mine (in no particular order): -Alex Smith (class) -Urban Meyer (fundraiser) -Karl Malone (Jr. Jazz camp) -Ronnie Lott (promotion) -Tony Dorsett (promotion) -Emmanuel "Webster" Lewis (installed his satellite) -L. Tom Perry (luncheon) -Jenny Oaks Baker (high school, seminary) -Former playmate of the year Julie Cialiani (had seats next to her at a 49ers game, the guys on the other side of us knew who she was, bishop that's all I swear) -Antonin Scalia (luncheon) -Gwenyth Paltrow (Sundance) |

All these were met when I was a valet at the Marriot in downtown SLC
10. Kobe Bryant's Dad "Jelly Bean" 9. Pre fame Britney Spears - (she was touring with In Sync) 8. Ron Artest 7. Ron Mcbride 6. Rick Majerus 5. Karl Malone (good tipper) 4. John Wooden 3. Bob Costas 2. George Carlin - Great Tipper 1. Bad Religion - Those guys are the best. Cool down to earth guys who were great tippers. In fact they gave everyone either. They would always drive up in their rented minivan and eatign cheeseburgers.

Tom Selleck
Robin Williams Mike Wallace Barbra Streisand Tom Clancy Itzhak Perlman Tom Osborne Lady Bird Johnson Rosa Parks Barack Obama I'm still hoping for Kirk Herbstreit (he can call my plays anytime!), and the only man to ever look good in burnt orange: Matthew McConaughey. I'm also willing to consider visits from Brett Favre or John Cusack. |

My 10 year old insists that I play "Los Angeles Is Burning" on the way to every baseball or football game of his. I have no idea why. He says it pumps him up.
