It's always fun to run into someone famous. Last December, my wife and I went on a whale watching trip while we were on Maui. Afterwards, we stopped in a small cafe on the water for lunch. Who should sit at the table next to us? Mick Fleetwood and his grandson...I didn't bug him for pics, but we did chat for a while. My wife was all..."OMG! Mick Fleetwood!" 
One of the crane companies I worked for about 10 years ago did a bunch of work for Clint Eastwood at his golf course in Carmel, and I chatted with him quite a bit. Another crane contractor did quite a bit of work for George Lucas at his home in San Anselmo and at his Skywalker Ranch. You never knew who you'd see when you were up there.

When I worked for a bank in Scottsdale, Az, Alice Cooper and his wife would come in frequently, we would do the Wayne's World bow, he'd laugh. Nice guy. very cool to see someone famous. My oldest brother went to high school with Glen Campbell's son Travis. also a nice guy

See you never know who the people you grew up with will become. It doesn't pay to make fun of people in school. Linda Carter (wonder woman) and Steven Spielburg both graduated from my high school. I am way younger than they are. But we looked up Steven in our yearbooks. What a nerd. and look at him now!! You truely just never know!!!!
