Not just autographs, but ACTUAL meetings

I've met:

Junior Spivey (He practiced at my old work)
Rod Allen (Tigers Announcer... He owned my old work, so I know him and his family)
Neil Rackers (Cardinals Kicker. He had a birthday party for his kid at my old work)
Sergei Fedorov (My dad, brother and I sat down in the Hyatt and talked with him for a good 15 minutes before a Coyotes game)
Scotty Bowman (My dad introduced me to him, I was too shy to say anything though. I did shake his hand!!!)
Donovan McNabb (He came into my first job with his family and I hooked him up)

I think thats it... for now!!!

I didn't speak to him, but I saw Brodeur and some other players (I know one of them was Desjardins who played for Philadelphia) playing poker at an airport a couple years ago. I think I made eye contact.

I haven't had an actual meeting, but I've gotten a bunch of autographs- pretty much all from current/former Mariners players (gotta love season tickets). I also saw Yao Ming in an airport once.

Met Mike Vick many times, in fact I had his "manager's" number in my cell phone for a while as I always had to let Vick and his crew in the back way many a night...
Everytime I saw him he looked more and more thuggish along with more and more cracked out, then he was gone :lol:

serena williams....biggest biceps ive ever seen

helped out at a theatre during the masters one year in augusta and met most of the golfers playing minus tiger

Heh, yeah. He's seemed like a really big family man. He wanted to do everything with his kids.

I met David Wright last year at a benefit for his David Wright Foundation. Got his autograph on a baseball and all; unfortunately gave it to my boyfriend at the time. Kind of wish I hadn't now, heh. No one else, sadly, although David Wright was more than enough ;)

Sadly no, I met Drew Bledsoe before Brady was drafted.

I wish I had met Tom Brady.

Should you ever come to RI, we can stalk Brady till we meet me, promise.

Deal, it was much easier to see them before they made Gilette all uber, they actually used to train in RI, it was literally like a 20 minutes drive, so I would go once a summer, also they didn't wins s much so less people stopped by. When I met Bledsoe I actually talked to him for a good 20 minutes (I met him with some friends).

But I think we can devise a plan of attack, and I do know of a few Pats cheerleaders who could help us.
