That happened to me with George Brett.
I was at a social gathering here in Wichita (Brett's In-Laws lived here at the time). I was speaking with a friend of his, and GB walks up, interrupts our conversation, and smirks, "sorry, I need to borrow this guy, but I'll give you an autograph later..." He was a complete douchebag, and that's as nice as I can say it. I've run into him on a number of other occasions since, where that it appears to be the norm for him. Completely ****ed me up, as he was most certainly a MAJOR hero of mine growing up.
