The most "interesting" was about 25 years ago, I was on a pay phone, (remember those???) at the Las Vegas airport. Who comes walking by, but Richard Simmons, dressed like you always saw him on TV, and acting just like you always saw him on TV. Trust me, the whole airport knew he was walking through. Too funny.

Back in 2011, I was taking a course for work and the instructor said he lived next door to "Brian Wilson" when he was growing up. Since this was right after the 2010 World Series, I thought he meant the relief pitcher for the San Francisco Giants (at the time) who was outstanding in the Woeld Series, not the singer from The Beach Boys.

Louie Anderson on this morning's DL4874 SEA-EUG. Boarded late, seemed kind of familiar but didn't piece it together until after the flight waiting on the jet bridge for bags. Very warm and friendly, especially towards the entire flight crew from start to finish.

Also, being based in PIT, have done the same with Sharon Needles. She lives in me neighborhood, so that's a more regular sighting, I guess. Kind of neat.

I unknowingly was in the MIA SkyClub at the same time as Detox and Manila Luzon (found out from another patron, didn't recognize either out of drag) a few weeks ago. They were in the workstation area and were being like absurdly loud/on FaceTime/talking seriously inappropriately to the point I literally couldn't get work done on my laptop with headphones on and had to get an agent to shut it down. They weren't very happy lol. It's the only time I've ever gone to an agent to complain about another patron.

What a shame, the MIA SC is a great out-station SC. Probably one of my favorites. There are three seats near the stairs and the hallway to the restrooms that are usually empty. Its a great little hiding spot to avoid this kind of nonsense.
