Stephen King lives the next town over so we used to see him regularly around and about when I was a kid (not so much now, but it does happen!). My brother has the best story - he was working as a bus boy at the one fancy restaurant in town (at the time) and SK was eating there when he stopped my brother, handed him some money and asked him to run to the convenience store down the street and pick him up a pack of cigarettes! LOL He totally did it!

I've met a variety of actors at small cons. Linda Hamilton is probably the most famous, but I also met James Avery (Uncle Phil from "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air"), Roy Dotrice, and Edward Albert, among others. Some were very nice. Others...not so much. Just like us regular folks, I suppose! :)
