Anthony Russo- filmmaker and producer . I met him last summer on a short 3 hour cruise and he's really a very sweet guy who isn't arrogant at all and enjoys meeting new people.

Gordie Howe, the famous hockey player:
Now having a bridge named after him:
It was a brief meeting, got to shake his hand when he came to our print shop for some reason.

Mr T - back when I was a kid and the T.V. show "The A-Team" was popular. They were filming a show in my area.

Red Symons - although I didn't really meet him. I just greeted him as he walked into a shop I was working at several years ago.

Ben Stiller. I had taken the ferry across Lake Champlain to the NY side to visit a friend. We decided to stop in a coffee shop for coffee and a pastry. He was sitting at a table drinking coffee and reading something. When we walked by, he said hello to both of us and invited us to sit down at the table with him. We chatted with him for about 20 minutes before he told us he had to leave. Very nice man.

Not so much "met" as "nearly ran into". David Cameron, then the UK Prime Minister. He was out jogging in London with a police protection office and I nearly ran into him. I only figured who he was after he had gone.

I met the members of a few Christian heavy metal bands back in the late 80s/early 90s. Seventh Angel, Detritus, Whitecross, One Bad Pig etc. Not famous unless you're into that genre.

Probably the most famous person I met and talked with would be Chris Packham. He's a British naturalist and was involved with a nature-related charity at the same time I was also involved. He was a really nice guy.
