Message: [QUOTE="meyers7, post: 5027751, member: 343"] There's plenty of sport celebrities I'd like to meet. But to sit next to for 4-5 hours? I'm not much of a talker myself, and if they aren't either..... could be a long ride. People like Bob Gibson (childhood hero) for example would have been great to meet, but I don't think he talked much. It would be fun to pick Belichick's brain, but I doubt he'd talk much. Now on the other hand someone like Mike Tyson. Now I think he would be fun. I bet he's got a lot of stories. DT too. So for a 5 hour flight, I'd probably go with someone like that. I did sit behind Meryl Steep and Carrie Fisher on a flight to Chicago once. Didn't bother them though. (Ok I got Meryl's carry-on out of the overhead for her.) Took me a while to figure out who they were though. No make-up, wearing a hat and shades. Followed them through the terminal (O'Hare) after we landed for a bit, until we had to go down a different corridor to our flight. Nobody recognized them. [/QUOTE]
