I just now realized that I've never set up a contingency plan on what to do if I ever did encounter Bob Saget. 
Sure it's fun to joke around about places where we haven't seen him, but what if the unthinkable ever happens? The world is getting smaller, as they say, and Bob is a free man to roam at will. What if one afternoon you find yourself browsing your favorite grocery store aisle, and suddenly you turn a corner and...presto...Saget! How would you react?
If it was a celebrity such as Gary Busey, the standard protocol would be to soil yourself & play dead, as to quickly divert an attack.
But Bob is a more complicated species. He is gentle most times, with only the bare minimal of public outbursts. I'm assuming a calm, slow extension of hand would gesture him an offering of friendship & lack of hostility. If he accepts your extended hand with his own, then a friendship bond has successfully been made. But what to say during such a process? Do you maintain silence and strict eye contact only? Or would eye contact trigger fear or aggression? Do you initiate a conversation on past TV appearances he's been in?
These things can be tricky, and should never be overlooked.
