    Too many, but not enough....
    I met Chuck Liddell at a blackjack table in Vegas some years back. There was like 10 people standing a ways away from him staring and I just walked up to him and said "Hey, Chuck, how's the table treating you"? He said "There's a reason I am a fighter and not a gambler". Cool dude, was really nice, took a picture with him and left him to lose his money. I dont know if he is "important" enough like some of the other guys on this list, but within the realm of UFC, he is.

    Not enough, apparently...yet. This damn forum...
    Same hometown and went to school with the Sadler brothers, Hermie and Elliott. Met Jamie McMurray at one of their New Years parties. My daughter has pics of her and Mike Huckabee, as well as Brian "Head" Welch from Korn. He did the Easter service about 9 years ago or so at our church. I was on contract and missed out on that one.

    First thing he said when I asked for his autograph was, “well this isn’t my book” but he saw it was the sky atlas 2000 and could probably tell I was an astronomy nerd.B4B8DB15-3EA7-4FCE-8F42-C02DAC85C560.jpg2975549D-4279-4814-A969-B26BAA1E44B7.jpg

    Helluva collectible! I'd put that in a display case for sure.

    My apartment was about 100 yds down from Brett Favre's at the University of Southern Mississippi. He was just a spoiled rotten kid then. His wife went a LONG way towards straightening him out.

    I also performed for a bunch of congressmen and George H.W. Bush in his first year as president. I was in a group that did pop music as a recruiting outreach for the college I was in at the time, Delta State University in north Mississippi.

    Those were people who were famous. As far as important people, EVERYONE is important, and there is something I can learn from every different person, which makes them important.
