    I had a few drinks with Hank Jr. back in Dillon Mt. when I was going to college, he and Russ Francis TE for the Patriots back in the day, cool guys, real down to earth. Hank has a big ranch or at least he did back then.

    I have been in the same room with a lot of Celebs. Had more interaction with some than others. Early 90s I worked at a golf course in Memphis, TN. My best friend's step dad was a former Pro football player & also a club member. They had an annual Pro /Celeb golf tourney there every year. I remember vividly think what a cool cat Michael Jordan was when I had just the opposite expectations...

    Sandra Bullock -met her at a tiny Italian joint in Manhattan. Unbelievable woman!

    Mo Vaughn- In my previous life, I customized vehicles. He brought me a Hummer H2. Upon seeing the completed project, he turned to his assistant and ordered him to immediately go buy another and bring it to me. Great guy! Very down to earth.

    Terry Glenn- I went to hight school with him, so I'm not sure he counts... but I ran into him at local club, during his Dallas Cowboy days. He picked up the tab for about a combined dozen of us (my group and his). He's not "too cool" for the old neighborhood. The money and fame didn't get the best of him.

    Trent Cole- I customezed his Silverado years ago. I ran into him at his booth, during the Ohio Deer & Turkey Expo. He remembered me and was happy to BS for a while. One of the best human beings you'll ever meet.

    Butterbean (former fighter)- Came up to the urinal next to mine, at a local club and started a conversation. This guy was hiarious! A little weird and a lot wild, but friendly as can be. Also, by some miracle, his wife was smokin hot!

    Lou Ferigno- Down to earth and very approachable, but good luck understanding a word that comes out of his mouth. Great guy, though!
