My buddy sat next to the Dalai Lama on an international flight. Talked to him the whole way. It doesn't get much cooler than that.

Saw Tyreek Hill on a Delta flight from KCI to Atlanta on Friday night. I'm getting my shoes and belt off in Security and my wife's like, "Honey, Tyreek Hill is right in front of us." Sure thing, black Hoodie with Cheetah and the number 10 on the back with short frosted hair and a red Nike backpack on. I didn't have the balls to bother him, he probably gets bugged by fans all the time, but they sat in the row ahead of us as we were right behind them in first class. I should've manned up but I didn't, I'm not that kind of fan. He was probably going down to see family or friends in the ATL anyways so I'm not going to interrupt that.

Other than that the only one that comes to mind that isn't a Chiefs player over the years is R. Lee Ermey in boot camp when I was 19 was pretty awesome. I guess he frequented MCRP in San Diego frequently and dropped by Hotel company to tell us about strength and guts.

I've run into Nate Diaz a few times at Philadelphia Sandwich Company in the last month. He enjoys their veggie quite a bit.

I met Chuck Stobb at Sho-Me baseball camp in Branson when I was 16. He was the pitching coach there and was famous for giving up the longest Home Run Mickey Mantle ever hit, LOL

Also met Bob Dole when I was a kid. My mother was his campaign manager at one time way back, when he was Kansas senator.

Seems like more people here have met the "real" Bob Dole than the CP version.

I wonder what the numbers are. ROFL

Not really a celebrity, but reading through the list and seeing Bill Patrick...

I was in LA for work several years ago and Pierre LeBrun, hockey analyst for ESPN and TSN, sat down at an outdoor fire pit with myself and some coworkers.

Nice guy, was in town for a playoff series. We chatted about hockey a bit (coworkers couldn't care less).... conversation at one point was about cost of living in LA versus KC for us normal folks, and LeBrun had mentioned the cost of living in Toronto and very matter-of-fact throws out the humble brag of "well, I live in a $2 million house in the Toronto suburbs", like it had any relevance at all to the discussion. LMAO

My Dad had a small part in a movie, which Karl
Malden was one of the main stars. My Mom
Had gone to the set with me in tow to watch the filming of the scene. Karl was there and told my Mom to go watch the filming and he’d watch me. So….I had Karl Malden as a baby sitter [emoji2]

Baker Mayfield stayed at a hotel I once worked at with his wife. Dude looks bigger in person, had to be easily 6'1. Very humble and down to earth. Acted like a random person. He seems cocky and annoyed as hell on tv giving interviews but from my experience was the opposite.

I guess this counts. I've been hanging out with Authority Zero (Mike, primarily) this year quit a bit. Backstage in Tempe on the 18th.

Went to a small Christmas get together at Rob Zombie’s house— my wife and Sherrie Moon (Skurkis) grew up together. Talked movies and played air hockey for hours with him. Totally chill, and really interesting person who can discuss a wide array of topics.

Hung out with Tito Ortiz one weekend— our Athletic Trainer was his trainer for nine years, and he came in town for a visit. This was when he was still married to Jenna. He was really nice and I fully expected him to be a douche. He’s also a got damn mutant with hands like bear paws, and would often cut 25 pounds in 48 hours for a fight.

George Brett as a 10 year old; my best friend’s older sister dated him for a little while.

Herschel Walker— my sister used to work for IMG and was his agent. Reserved and genuine guy; very conscientious.

Bumped into Willie Wilson down in Arizona at a spring training game— gregarious and generous with his time.

Candidate Donald Trump in 2015 when he gave a speech where I worked.

Senator Lindsay Graham— he was a preoccupied dick.

Diaz brothers are cool. They grew up in Cali and my coworker used to chill with them all the time prior to their pro career. They used to get into a lot of fights against gang members and would always hold their own lol

Didnt meet but got to hear their conversations for about 20 minutes...............I went to the Comedy Cellar in NY last week. I was waiting in line to go into the show by a table that had these guys having a good time talking shit on each other and everyone.

Not really special since this is Chiefs Planet, but I just want to say how cool it was that Lamar Hunt used to chill with the fans during training camp. He was around fans on so many other occasions, too, but I specifically remember this as a kid going to River Falls for training camp. People would be sitting around between practice sessions in folding chairs and he'd bring his own chair and have a seat right next to them.
