Hmm...let's see, had a few run ins with some famous people.
LOL...I'm married to the lead guitarist for Train, didn't you know?
Back in about 98 or so when Matchbox 20 was just gaining popularity, I went to one of their concerts and was hanging out in the area with all the bars. Guy comes up to us and starts chatting, asking us if we like the band, etc etc. Probably talked to him for 20 min or so. A bit later, Matchbox 20 took the stage and low and behold, the guy that was chatting with us was the freaking drummer. (OK, I admit, at the time the only one I could have identified was Rob Thomas.
)
Hmm..met NASCAR driver Kasey Kahne once. Actually, have met quite a few sports figures...mainly college players or people who played for U of A, went Pro for a while and then ended up living back in the city.
Used to work with Ruben Studdard's aunt back when he was actually ON AI. He came up to visit her at work one day and I got to meet him. Actually, it's not at all hard to run into him around B'ham. Almost literally ran into him in Wal-Mart one day and walked into Victoria's Secret as he was walking out. (Won't go there.)
Washed my hands in a bathroom sink beside Tootie (Kim Fields) from The Facts of Life in Disney World once. Was in Epcot the same day as Michael Jackson once....didn't know it until a few days afterwards though.
Met all the guys in a band called Barely Breathing when they opened for Train in Orlando a few years ago at the House of Blues.
Back in the late 90's when WWF was very popular, I met Billy Gunn (AKA Mr. A**) when he came into B'ham to have surgery. (I was doing an internship for that doc at the time.)
Met Clay Walker once back when he toured. (My cousin is his lead guitarist.)
Not sure if you'd classify them as "famous", but I think I've run into just about all the kids that were on that MTV show "Two A Days" that was on for 2 seasons. (Being as I work in Hoover where it was filmed.)
Only famous person I'm actually related to was Hitler.
Hubby is related to a singer named Jim Stafford. (Not sure who he is, but people ask him that all the time.)
