I never knew that he was a werewolf.

Met a buddy on the Horseshoe Tavern patio one weekday summer afternoon about ten years ago for some pints and girl watching. After a few minutes the guy at the
table beside us leans back and starts to look at his iPhone. Kiefer Sutherland in da house haha. Man could that guy throw them back, pint after pint and he was alone.
I think he felt comfortable because we left him alone.

At work, Mike Myers, he looked very sad. My colleagued chatted him up, it was around the time that his father passed away.

Stepped into an elevator and there was Kin Shriner , soap opera star, brother of Will Shriner, he gave me a funny look as if to say "How dare you share this lift with me" LOL!

Turned into a downtown alley and Jack Morris was walking ahead of me, I hear that he's an asshole to fans.

I can confirm that.

My son, 6 at the time, went to Chicago to see the Jays play a series against the Sox and we stayed at the same hotel as the Jays.

We came back from Comiskey to the hotel and saw Morris from outside walking through the lobby. My son went in to ask for an autograph and I saw Morris say something and pat him on the head and then walk away. When I asked my son what he said, Morris told him that he was going to get a drink (from the bar, I assume) and would sign an autograph afterwards. So the asshole blew off a 6 year old with no other autograph seekers around.

In 2001 I saw Woody Harrelson and his friend on a beach in the Dominican. I was too shy to say hello. They were clearly high as a kite.. both giggling like teenagers and the smell of marijuana filled the air. I've had a few other celebrity encounters but not worth mentioning.

six degrees of separation run ins, do they count?

Had a coworker who met Teofilo Stevenson in the 70's he showed me a photo of him and Teo.

Had a coworker that dated Kiefer Sutherland in high school.

Got Terry Bradshaw's autograph in '75 at CNE stadium at exhibition flag football game between NFL and CFL stars.
He was super nice and friendly.
He had just won his first Super Bowl earlier that year.

If 6 degrees count I have one too.
Good friend of mine, one of those guys that women stopped to look at, he was that handsome. He played hockey for Cornell and went to Medical school.. the complete package. He went to LA for a week for a conference and while there a buddy of his set him up with Sherilyn Fenn. He was there for a week and saw her every night. I asked if she could really do the cherry stem trick with her tongue that she did in Twin Peaks and he said he didn't know about that but the control she had with her tongue he didn't doubt it.

I have 2 degrees of separation with Bobby Orr. He came to my son's work and autographed a picture of his iconic Cup winning overtime goal against the Blues and addressed it to me.

In my condo:

About 20 years ago, I was waiting for an elevator, one reaches ground level and the doors open up. Out walks actor , Bruce Greenwood. He was talking to himself "........that's what I gotta do..." LOL

About 30 years ago, I stepped into elevator and there was Adrienne Arsenault, current anchor of CBC's The National.
She was just an assignment editor for CBC back then.
