I served Lemmy a Filet O' Fish at the Mcdonalds I worked at when I was 16 or so.  Couldn't believe it when he walked in the door.  Motorhead was on tour with Alice Cooper at that time I think.

This was in a small Nothern Ontario town of about 6000 people, not exactly the place for celebrity encounters.

The guys must have been really hungry.

I was trying to keep this family friendly (not really)  I shook Ron Jeremy's hand at a bar in Portland about 8 years ago.

I hope you washed it afterward...   :D

Edit:  Oops, sorry.  I guess I'm a little late for that joke.   :)

I shook Harold Agnew's hand.

That thing in his hand is the plutonium core for the Nagasaki bomb.  Harold flew in one of the two bombers that escorted the Enola Gay to the drop zone over Hiroshima.

Michelle Pfeiffer lived a block up the street from me but she was too good to even say hi.  This was just before she started on the screen, when she was in high school.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.
