Not a huge celebrity, but I was seated near Rutledge Wood, one of the hosts of Top Gear USA on the History channel on my ATL-RIC last Friday.

I would have been a lot cooler if it had been Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear UK... Just sayin.

Anyone on this flight? USOpen finalist Nishikori flies in coach from LGA to Tampa. Nishikori has a pretty significant sponsorship deal with Delta as well, so surprised he was in the back...

Sat next to Maria Sharapova on a flight from JFK to LAX last week. On my return, I was two seats over from Dee Snider and his wife.

That would be worth using an upgrade coupon for!

Dr. Oz was on DL 1878 from ATL to EWR last night. Saw on the manifest he is a GM. Super nice guy and very pleasant. We all did not eat our cake desserts in FC, I think he is the reason why.

Patrick Dempsey at LAX Terminal 5 this morning. He was whisked past the precheck line at security. But I somehow beat him to the Skyclub. The woman behind me in security was freaking out, but other than that, no one seemed to notice.

He races in the series I work in so I see him a lot. Regular guy who would much rather talk racing than acting.

Yesterday on my way back from the big sportscar weekend at Circuit of the Americas near Austin I did see Charlie Day, his wife Mary Ellis and their son on DL5733, AUS-LAX.

I sat next to Bill Bellamy in EC on DTW-LAX on 9/8. Mostly kept to himself, but chatted a bit about my phone.
