Snoop Dogg. In a Goofy hat. In line for Barnstormer. My daughter still makes fun of me for squealing, "Snoop said sup to me!"

I've liked them since the late '80's and have seen dozens of interviews with him. His voice, to me as a fan, is distinctive.

I saw Paul Stanley of Kiss in a corridor at the Grand Californian in Anaheim. I didn't intrude on his family time. I struck up brief conversations with a few celebrities mingling in the crowd at the D23 convention (also in Anaheim) (ride designer Bob Gurr, voice actor Jim Cummings, to name two).
When I was working at Big Thunder Mountain at WDW in 2010, the band Hanson came through my Fastpass line with their families. I didn't recognize them, but my younger co-workers did. The band was in town to play at an Epcot festival.

I met former MLB player Tino Martinez about a year ago at Epcot. As a Yankee fan, it was awesome and I chatted with him for a couple minutes

I rode on an elevator with Michael Eisner at the Contemporary once. I was just a kid. My mom was speechless. I was oblivious, but it happened!

We shared an elevator with the Hulkster at the Grand Floridian in the 90s, and on the flight home we shared a row with Norman Schwarzkopf.

Is that a comment about Melissa McCarthy's weight? If so, not cool.

Will Weaton. He always liked going to Disneyland. Back when he was on Star Trek NG and had done Stand by Me, he wasn't fully famous yet. He and his friends loved to hit up Disneyland and just randomly say hi to people to see if they recognized him. He had said hi to me, and I said " Hi Will, nice to see you" back. He stopped me and we chatted a bit, I was with my friend Mike, and we used Mikes camera for the picture. Mike never did get me a copy of the picture.

About 2 or 3 years ago I saw Kobe Bryant who was with his family watching Wishes! at the dessert party at Tomorrowland Terrace. After it ended they were ushered backstage by one of the host cast members that wear the vests.
Just this past Memorial Day weekend, Jon Landau was eating with his family at a table next to us at California Grill. This was during the opening weekend of Pandora. After dinner, he and his family went out on the observation deck and were taking photos. We saw them out there as well.

Who's Melissa McCarthy?
Jim McMahon and his family at DHS during a Star Wars Weekend. 25 people or so had previously been asked to move from a prime viewing area before the parade. In strolls Jim McMahon and his family and they set up shop there and start waiting. Shortly after, some cast members move the rope and bam it’s now an approved VIP viewing area. Like me, he had lost some hair and put on some weight since the Super Bowl Shuffle in ‘85.
Side note, saw the ladies of Salt N Pepa in Atlanta airport on the way from WDW. I am old enough to k wo a few of their songs but wouldn’t of noticed them or recognized them but there was a huge entourage with them and the ladies had their “name” on the back of their jackets. I think they were going passing thru to a show in Charlotte. Some middle aged lady beside us lost her mind.
