And does anyone have a Bill Murray sighting in manhattan? Or maybe someone actually talked to will ferrell when he was here.

Those wouldn't even be good ones.  Needs to be obscure for the maximum points of board cred allowable.  Starting with Bill Murray would have a value of only 15 while starting with someone like, say, Roz from Cheers would have a starting value of 17.  I mean, the story is going to have to be good but your chances are better of pulling off a high number.  Just imo bros.

well i will have low cred then. saw bill murray a couple times in manhattan, he was at the Vet school graduation this year and a couple fball games last year. his brother brian (family guy, the boss on christmas vactation) wife was in my brothers Vetmed class and graduated this year.

-When I lived in Austin I went to a show during SXSW which actually also turned out to be a party for the movie Knocked Up, which was about to open.  Randomly met/befriended Paul Rudd.  Started talking to him about Wet Hot American Summer, how it's the greatest movie ever, then he introduced me to the director David Wain.  Said something about how now I just have to meet someone from Freaks and Geeks, at which point Rudd was like, "Well Martin Starr is right over there."  So then I hung with Martin Starr, who played Bill Haverchuck for a while until the bar closed...and then Paul Rudd liked us enough that he whisked us away in one of his cars to an afterparty in his penthouse of the 4 Seasons hotel in Austin, where he bought a billion beers and vodkas from room service and we partied until 4 am.  Oh, and there was also some other chubby, little-known actor there with us.  What was his name, again?  Oh yeah, Jonah Hill.   It was super random and WAY TIGHT.

Wow, sounds like one of my dreams.

I think that's the coolest one so far.

Maybe because it's effing ridic that anyone would want that POS's autograph.  He also brought out the game ball at the 2003 Fiesta Bowl.  Anyone remember that?

Completely ridiculous.  Wasn't he with the families of the astronauts that died, or something like that.  Really classy moment.

Should I know this person?

An update: the girl I was with when I met Paul Rudd in Austin went to vote in her precinct in New Orleans, and who was behind her in line but JOHN GOODMAN.  Sweet!

Patrick Stewart and wife sat at a table right next to me at the Oyster House at Grand Central Station in NYC. The tables were like 16" apart, so when he was getting to his seat, his ass rubbed on my elbow. He drank 4 glassed of wine in about 25 minutes and was obviously lit by the time we left, so I gave him the "live long and prosper" sign and he giggled. Seemed cool when drunk.

Tommy "Hit Man" Hearns called my house to talk to my girlfriend (now wife), I'm like "WTF?"

Johnnie Cochran in line at the SD airport. Wife asked if O.J. did it, he just smiled. Pretty short.

John Stamos in line at the bank. Nothing to report but  .

Ray Ramano and family at a McDonald's on Thanksgiving day a few years ago. We were the only ones in the place.

I always assumed SteveDave was a hefty fella.

Lived in Hollywood for a while, so really too numerous to list.  You'd randomly see people all the time. 

Most random outside of my LA time was meeting Gary Payton and Kendall Gill in a Spencers (or something like that) in the Galleria in Houston.  Random because I don't even know WTF I was doing there, much less WTF they were doing there.
