Who have you seen in the parks before?

So in your visits to the parks, which celebrities or otherwise noteworthy people have you seen?

I've seen Vince Vaughn being backdoored onto RSR. I've seen Dave Foley outside of the Pirates of the Caribbean surrounded by castmembers. Most recently I saw Emma Stone in Toontown, again, surrounded by castmembers. Also saw Tony Baxter one day.

Less famous, yet still notable, I've seen a couple popular Youtubers. Justin Scarred from Live Fast Die Poor, seen him a couple times. Rocco Botte from the Mega 64 Channel as well.

That's all that I've seen. One day I was convinced that I saw Spielberg, but I wasn't 100 percent sure and that would be a big name to see, so I can't confidently say I did.

I'm not one of the celebrity obsessed people, so I don't really know who those people are. I know I was there while the broad from He's Just Not That Into You was reading the candlelight processional. I've seen Drake and Josh (one of them?) several times. Other than that, I know I've been there when people were reacting to a celebrity, but I just didn't care.

This is actually the perfect spot to post my plea. If anyone knows of Bob Iger being in the parks when I am there, you've got to get the message to me some how. Post here, message Hans to get ahold of me, if it comes to it, have the police put an APB out on me, whatever it takes. I want my pic with him! Lol

There have been a few. I met Jason Lee by happenstance, who was very kind. Both my sister and I have had separate awkward encounters with Pierce Brosnan. Also, once I passed by John Krasinski. However, the one that will always haunt me was a bearded man who passed me by the castle moat. He was talking at a rapid speed and walking with a little girl who may have been anywhere between 9 and 11 years old. His voice was a ringer for Robin Williams! We exchanged glances and that was that. To this day I can't be absolutely sure it was him.

I've heard that he signs autographs if you mail him. I've found his mailbox addressed for fans to write him and am going to send a headshot soon to see if he does. I doubt I'll ever see him though.

Meeting Bob Iger would gravely disappoint you. It's best if you keep him in your fantasy world - in reality he's the human equivalent of paint drying on cardboard.

I saw comedian Brian Posehn. At WDW I nearly ran into (literally) one of those Jonas Bros, not sure which.

You've met him, haven't you?

I have. More than once. Each time I think, surely he's not as stiff and awkward as I remember, but he definitely is. The first time I met him he stopped talking mid-sentence - like a short-circuiting robot - and there was a good five second pause. Long enough for me to look around and wonder if Bob needed to be plugged in.

He's very nice, but very wooden.

Lol he sounds like me!

All I need is five seconds, snap a picture, pinch his toosh, and I'll be on my merry way.

Did you ever stop and think he stopped talking mid sentence when he met you because you took his breath away?

Saw Quentin Tarantino while waiting in line for Big Thunder, that was cool. Another time I saw Ed Begley Jr. at the tram hub by the parking garage, not quite as exciting.

I have only one, met John Lasseter at SDL. He was off down the Disneytown exit during the parade. I'm sure there were a couple other suits I saw whom I didn't recognize, but never could see Bob Iger, sorry @Curious Constance, I looked. (By the way if you get your behind to the Star Wars opening, camp out for 3 weeks to beat all the hardcore nerds, you may actually get to meet him).

My only other major celebrity encounters are Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman in full Dr. Who regalia in-front of the Christ the Redeemer statue and Richard Branson... on a Cathay Pacific flight in first class (I was in Business, woe is me... it was on points).

Connie, his whole body froze. It was honestly a top 5 Twin Peaks weird life moment for me. And then when the pause was up, he just picked right back up, reanimating and completing the sentence.

He's probably a lizard person or something

Lol WTH

Oh well, it'd be kinda nice having someone you can power down when you've had enough of them for one day.

By the way, why am I just now hearing about this? What other secrets are you hiding from me?????
