Slim, dont you mean the "Saddle Rack"? I live in San Jose & never heard of the "Saddle Back". I could be wrong though. BTW, the "Saddle Rack" closed a few years ago.

Stopped a couple of stars on traffic stops but really shouldn't give any names..One's a prolific director/writer/actor and the other is a former head coach of a professional Chicago team (Todog would love to meet him!...LOL)

For all cigar buffs, On a trip to the Bahamas, after dinner at Graycliff Hotel, I met Avalino Lara in the back room rolling cigars and smoked a freshly rolled Graycliff Pirate. This was back in "97 before Graycliff cigars were released. Sitting in "living room" drinking coffee and smoking that stogie was great!!

Keith, let me see, would guess Bill Murray and the famous cigar smoking Mike Ditka!!! LOL

Magnafide --- you are correct.

... I didn't catch my 'typo' ... :^)

Charlie, You're correct about "Da Coach"...The other (another hint) is the writer of Caddyshack and Groundhog Day and starred with his good friend Bill Murray in several movies..LOL
Seemed like a really nice guy too!

BTW, Yes, I gave both of them breaks for speeding..LOL

Out of the famous people I've met, the most famous person is probably Steven Spielberg.

My husband worked at a house in La Jolla formerly owned by George Lucas...the new owner swapped out his stereo system and we now have George's old system installed in our downstairs...

Does that qualify for anything?

I went to Pro-Celeb tennis tourney in Palm Springs and met Johhny Bench. Ended up with Tennis Outfits sponser gave him, we both had, and I said had, 34 inch waist. Does that count??????????

My son got to to "shoot" (he is a photographer) Frank Sinatra at the opening of the Cerritos Performing Arts Center. He was backstage and met Arnold Schwartzneigger and Clint Eastwood at the same event! Does that count?

Muhammad Ali at the philadelphia airport in 1977 I think. I was there applying for a job and walked out and saw him
sitting with his bodyguard. I made small talk and got his autograph. He was a big guy but his bodyguard made him look like a shrimp.

Trisha Yearwood, was walking and I noticed her, I said Trisha!! She stopped, looked at me and smiled stopping with her bodyguards.

She shook my hand and said WAHHHwahh whhaaawahh ahhhwaah waa wahhh haaw.????? A special moment in time.

Wasn't stuck up at all, very nice person.

Oh, I forgot one. Back in the early 80's I did a job at Billy Joel/Christy Brinkleys midtown (NY) apartment. (I'm an Electrician) Billy was not there either of the two days, but Christy was and was the nicest, most down to earth person you would want to meet. No fancy help, she made us lunch and brought us drinks (coke, ice tea) during the workday. Was very nice to look at I might add!!

Is this post gonna be a record winning post-count, too?

I'm in. I saw Danny Thomas in a casino Reno in the 70's.

I was an early teen and somewhat intimidated to say HI, so I never actually "met" him, but we made eye contact and I knew he knew I knew whow he was.
