I figured if he was shitty to her, he'd definitely be shitty to a fat guy with Cardinals stuff on his desk, so even though I was in close proximity to him a few times, I never engaged him or even made eye contact. It's almost surreal to see somebody who you only know as a jovial goof on TV act like a raging, miserable prick.
The coolest celebrity encounter I had was with Vincent Price. He was somehow involved with the college in my hometown, and every few years he'd visit and put on a little seminar at the main auditorium. I went to one in the fall of '83, right after Thriller came out. When it started, they played the music to Thriller, and Price did his rap, along with the ending laugh, in person. I later learned that he only did that in front of a live audience twice; once on the Tonight Show, and that night. It's pretty awesome that I got to see it. After his presentation, he went to the back exit and greeted every one of the hundreds of people who attended on their way out. I shook his hand and spoke to him briefly. He was charming, friendly and awesome, and not at all like the villains he always portrayed.

That sucks about Belushi, I really like him as an actor..Also Chevy Chase being a Dick IRL
