I talked to Chris Hillman a few weeks back in the Sacramento airport. Chirs Hillman is the musician who wan an original member of the Byrds, founder/member of the Flying Burrito Brothers, founder member of the Desert Rose band....

Was on the same plane as he was. I politely introduced myself and he was as gracious and appreciative as could be, just a very nice gentleman.

Only because you were asking.

Showing my age but-I used to run a disco in N.Y.C. back in the late 70's early 80's.
Met:
Bruce Springstein
Dick VanDyke
Maury Wills
Reggie Jackson
and a couple of other lesser knowns.

Fun Job..Great Memories..Thanks OFF!
I've met the members of Kiss, Most of the seattle seahawks (we called them sea chickens) back in 1998 & 1999 ...

few others here and there... most of ya wouldn't even recognize names because you don't follow rodeo.
THT-KISS is my all time favorite band. I've met all the original members except Peter (Gene Simmons is a HUGE ass, but he knows it), plus a few of the non-original members.

While living in and going to school in Austin, I met a TON of UT football players, and every head coach we've had that is still alive.

The most beautiful woman I've ever seen in person is still Sandra Bullock. She is hotter in person than in her movies, believe it or not.

On a flight back to Dallas from Vegas, I sat behind Rob Van Winkle aka Vanilla Ice. Seems like a pretty nice guy in person.

When I was 17 yrs. old, I sold a leather coat to Tony Dorsett. Not mine personally. I worked at J Harris and he brought his wife/girlfriend in one day. I met a ton of the Cowboys while I worked there. It's funny because, I would have them call my boyfriends younger brother because he was such a Huge fan. Ha. Everyone of them did for me too. (Suckers..J/k) It was actually very cool of them to put up with me. The little brother still has all the autographs I got for him. (Everyone is on the back of a J Harris Business card!)

Well, I have been seeing Chuck Norris and his wife, Gina once or trwice a year for several years.

Shook hands with the infamous O J Simpson before his crimes.

Since I have worked for the Dallas Cowboys for over twenty years, I have meet all the head coaches and many players. Even several players for the opposing teams.

I have pictures with my arm around cheerleaders, too.

I have some great memories.

CSI

CSI - how the hell did you manage to escape the Jerry cleansing when he took over. To the best of my knowledge he fired damn near every single person who was involved with the Cowboys prior to his gaining control. Most folks know about the Tom Landry deal, but he fired EVERYONE including those who maintained the weight machines. The stadium announcer. Chaplin. Hell, he fired everyone!! And you managed to survive? I would love to hear that story and know what you do/did.
