Who have you guys met? I'll start, I doubt most of you guys will know who this is, but the bull riders like montanafowler or huntall6 might. Jacob Tyner, his dad is a teacher at my school.

Mike Rowe when he came to Sault Ste. Marie to shoot Dirty Jobs he also took a tour of the CG base and came by my shop to meet everyone. I only met him for a second I was heading out the door heading to another unit but seemed like a cool guy.

Never have met any Hollywood famous or TV famous people that I can remember. In the shooting community, Leo Harrison III, Harlan Campbell Jr., Nora Ross, Britt Robinson, Brad Dysinger, Phil Kiner, and Daro Handy. All big dogs in the trap shooting arena.

My friends got wasted with Mike that night, sounds like he's a pretty kickass dude.

They also allegedly saw Randy "Macho Man" Savage rolling around the Sault in a Hummer. Not sure I believe this one, but it was a hell of a story.

I've talked to Merle Haggard a couple of times and I worked on one of "The Marlboro Man"'s houses. I think he was the second or third Marlboro Man.

A couple gold medlist that very few would know, I dated the daughter of a Nashville Preditor way back when so pretty much the whole 2002 team, I hit with a couple pro tennis players in high school (one was a douche bag and I can't remember his name and the other was Marat Safin), Brady Quinn (ass bag), I played basball with Muhammad Ali's son and dated his girlfriend before he did (long story there), etc... Never really thought about it but there are quite few.

Jakie Chan about a million time.

I've met quiet a few of the duck commander gang. Also, it doesn't count as meeting, but I've spent many hours on the phone with Charlie Wilson of "Charlie Wilson's War" fame. He invited me to stop by his home the next time I passed through so we could have a few drinks and he could show me the rocket launcher presented to him that shot down the Russian chopper. Sadly, he passed away before I had the opportunity. I was on the phone with him one day when his assistant told him he had another call. He asked who it was and said he'd call them back. Turns out it was Tom Hanks calling him while they were making the movie.

I have personally met Gene Kelly (he and his son and daughter had dinner at my house), OJ Simpson (he acted like a nigger), Lee Marvin (pretty nice guy), Elizabeth Taylor and her husband at the time Richard Burton (she was standoffish, he was pleasant) Radar (from MASH) (he stopped for a six pac when we were drinking and throwing shoes), The guy that played Cannon on TV (he was very nice and offered to share dessert with us) and I met the Commandant of the Marine Corps when he was in high school, Gen Jim Amos.

Met Roy Acuff and Ernest Tubb, Johnny Cash, and George Stright (who has a house here in Rockport)

Mel Fisher who found the wreck the Atosha and many of the cast of "Sea Hunt" including Lloyd Bridges and Zale Perry and some of the other underwater cast.
