Most famous celebrity you ever had a conversation with?

Not talking about a simple handshake in passing.

1. Back in the day when I lived in Savannah I was stuck at the ATL airport waiting on a late night flight while on R&R. I was in my Army uniform reading a newspaper and someone across from where I was sitting started to talk to me. I looked up and it was Tom Berenger. Inside I was like "holy poo, it's the Platoon bad ass", but I didn't say anything about him being a movie start. We just talked about family and our destinations. He lives in Beauford, SC which surprised me. And his wife was the hottest 40 year old I've ever laid my eyes on.

2. Benjamin Bratt once paid for my order at the same airport when he was behind me in the line. I should have asked to smell his finger :o

All of it made me realize that a) Army uniform does wonders in public and B) ATL airport is the place to be

Shaking his hand and him saying "thanks for free drinks tonight, stranger" doesn't count

well...truth be known he said...thanks for letting me buy you drinks all night, sorry I'm so sloppy but I was at ball practice with my huddle b-ball team!

seriously...mine would be Guy Lafleur...and it was a big thrill seeing I grew up a die hard Habs fan and Guy was my favorite player!

I was the honorary coach for one of those legends of hockey tours and Guy and Tiger Williams were the headliners. The three of us actually missed the start of the 3rd period because we were in the dressing room talking about the state of hockey today...the gal taking care of everything wasn't impressed!!!

Got some good pics and autographs out of it, but the whole experience was cool.

reason he was so sloppy had to do with that beatdown they took earlier.. had to drink away the pain of being slightly below mediocre..

    • That's also in an era when DBs could press for 10 yards, Qbs could be hit, QBs could have players land on them, incidental contact could be made with the head etc. You can't compare bryce to players like this. What you can do is say who's done less over their first 30 starts and had more resources dedicated to them and at that point you're looking at like Joey Harrington.  At least with Joey there weren't morons in the fan base falling over themselves to compare him to players from the first year of the NFL merger. 
    • Brees had a pro bowl year in year 3. Phillip Rivers was drafted anyways and Brees went off for two more years before his shoulder was completely torn up in the last game of the 2006 season. 
    • The last time this franchise was in this much despair pre Tepper, the rumors of the banner flyover were met by the front office. They quickly worked with the disgruntled fans to quell any potential negative event occurring at the Stadium or TV. The real question is do we even have enough fans that care to get together behind a movement like this again or is our fan base too far gone that we dont care to revolt like this? Personally, I still go to games each year no matter how terrible it is, but it has went from something I spent all week looking forward to almost as enjoyable as yearly physical. We can count the blunders this franchise has made in keeping Head Coaches, General Managers and players too long. (Rivera,Rhule, Hurney, Fitterrer). Team wise we've missed out on Herbert, we didnt trade Burns for 2 1st round picks, we reached by taking Bryce who would have most likely been were we were going to draft anyway, and extended players who constantly underperformed like Ian Thomas. Even when we are gifted a chance like 2 first for Burns that we shouldnt have paid premium, we fumbled a chance to really jump start the franchise. So this is more to everyone as a whole. How much of your Soul for this team is left? Is it still there that if there was a glimmer of hope, you'd come right back or has the futility of this team negated your love for football completely?
