Saw 2 Chainz and 4 of his homies in A17 SkyClub last night. And then again up in FC with me ATL-MSP last night (one of them was my seatmate)

He was performing at a concert at Myth in St. Paul, MN Saturday night.

All of them were quite pleasant, all DM's and MM's, and the FAs took very good care of them and they told me they always fly DL all around the world as they do live in the ATL area.

Saw Chevy Chase in the C37 SC in Atlanta on the evening of 10/10. He was actually in front of me when we were ordering drinks and sitting at the table directly across from me after we sat down. I had no idea it was him until someone went up to him and asked him for an autograph. (I was exhausted and oblivious to my surroundings!!)

He left the SC and came back after he received another notification his flight was delayed. He jokingly asked the bartender if they served breakfast and if they had a place for him to sleep.

That would have been a sight. I'm about 6'3 and I can't even stand up on a CRJ.

Nice to hear a positive report on Mr. Chase. Very talented Actor though I have heard he can be tough to work with on set.

Perhaps he was able to enjoy the new food offerings in the SC. Updated oatmeal. Score!!

August 12th I saw Sebestain Bach get off a Rochester to MSP flight next to my GFK to MSP flight. He was really cool when I started to talk with him. Being a fan of his Skid Row and now solo days it was cool.

Can you explain why it was an honor? He's a person, just like you. Now if he had flown especially to meet you, I would consider it an honor, but just some casual talk in a SC?

(not saying this to be nasty or anything, just trying to understand)

They are filming a remake of Vacation in Atlanta...Rusty Griswold apparently emerged from puberty as Ed Helms.

I've got you all beat.... I... saw.... FLAVA FLAVE!! Oh yes! I was upgraded (as usual) to first class, and who should sit two rows in front of me? Thats right... Freakin Flave Flave in the flesh. I could not believe my luck. How many people have this privilege in their lifetime? He had to walk in the aisle side ways because the big clock he was wearing would not fit through. When he sat down the clock sat in his lap and he could not see over it. He summoned a flight attendant over and asked if she could lock his clock up somewhere safe. She did not know who he was and said no. She said he would have to stow it in the above compartment. He said "Aint nobody got time for that!" and then laughed. He was just joking with her. He is a very friendly guy.

I sat next to Mike from "American Pickers", Detroit to BNA Saturday evening
I thought Mike Wolf just drove the M-B van . Frank wasn't with him? BTW, they changed the name of the program to just "The Pickers" for some reason.
