Who's the biggest celebrity you've ever rubbed shoulders with?
We were just looking at a photo on my desk of when I got to meet Muhammad Ali in 2000, he was good mates with the owner of the company I work for and he organised a plant visit for the day, needless to say it was a very memorable day.

Spoke and shook hands with Delta Goodrem, when she was still on neighbours
Saw Mel Gibson (just seeing someone doesn't really count, but since we are name dropping) and i got a photo and to chat with Steve Waugh that same day at G'day LA day in LA (obviously
)
Played marks up with Chris McDermott at my local club when he visited one time, as a young bay supporter this was massive. Really scraping the barrel I know...
Got to have a photo with wwe legend Mick Foley and Al Snow.

Delta used to go to the CDFC after party's when the Doggies were in their dominant era, from all reports she is a very nice person who didn't place herself higher than any others.

she was so friendly so that doesn't surprise... Unfortunately I had a girlfriend at the time and had to knock back her advances...

If we're talking footballers, I lived around the corner from Gilbert McAdam as a teenager, he was at the Dogs at the time, he'd come and kick the ball with us at the reserve across from his house.
I was pretty close to Travis Varcoe before he got drafted and one of my best life long mates is Donald Dickie, he is a very level headed great bloke who is the first one to offer support when the chips are down.

You blokes need to get out a bit.

Bumped into a few over the years on my travels, more often than not in Airport Lounges........ Jimmy Barnes, Ita Butrose, Bruce McAveney all come to mind. I recall one morning in the Adelaide Qantas Club, reaching for some toast at the same time as a real big dopey looking bloke...... that was Andrew Symons when he was playing for Australia. Seen Gilchrist, McGrath and co back in the day also. Many years ago, my old man used to arrange for the Aussie test cricketers to go the Globe Derby on the Saturday night of the test match in Adelaide. I got a gig as a driver, took M. Waugh and his old battle axe missus out and back. That night met the entire team, AB, Healy, Merv, & a very young S.Warne.
In 2016 when in LA on the way home, in the lounge I spotted Gordon Ramsay.

I did look at that pic and I didn't think it gave her face much justice, perhaps the angle of my chair had my head pointing to a lower region.

Yeah, each to their own, I'm sure there's probably about 25 women that would be in my top 5 Aussie girls.
