I went to see Max Brooks and his zombie presentation a few weeks ago. It was very funny and informative. He also signed books so I got my copy of World War Z signed. I left the Zombie Survival Guide in the car though :saddowns:
I met a microsoft millionaire on a ski-lift once. interesting guy, though he didn't tell me anything the internet wouldn't have told me already
Well, I never met or talked to them, but I've seen a lot of local celebrities in this country that neither one of will even give a shit, I don't give a fucking shit about them, cause they suck. There was one time when Mandy Moore gave me a compliment when she visited my country "Oh, gosh, look at your eyes," she said to me (I got my eyes from my mother so they look like a woman's).

Living in Hawaii I've run into the actors from[I] [B]Lost[/B] [/I]numerous times.
Blizzard employees come into my store on basically a daily basis, but nothing interesting other than they're all huge nerds yet super super nice and down to earth. other than that, met Andr'e Hatcher, Edwin Starr's son, not sure if that counts though as his son isn't really famous. he sang a song or two though, one of which being 'War', and there's no way he isn't Edwin Starr's son.
I met the members of Scale the Summit after they played a show. My parents met Robert Duvall in an elevator once. Besides that, I've met a couple of Spanish celebrities.

I didn't really meet him but my sister was getting married at Disneylands Grand Hotel and while I was carrying things to the reception room I saw Brad Garrett talking to some dude.

I worked at the Carnoustie Golf Hotel for a while, and being on one of the worlds most renowned golf courses I met a load of famous people, especially during the Open and Dunhill Links Championship.
