This is the thread to use for posting your sightings of celebrities/notable/newsworthy public figures while travelling. Here are a few ground rules:
Here are links to older threads:
Celebrity Sightings on United Airlines - 2013
Celebrity Sightings on United Airlines - 2012

pmCO Celebrity Sightings
pmUA Celebrity Sightings
- The sighting must occur either on a United flight (or related regional/express carriers) or at a UA terminal.
- Comments about individuals sighted by others should be kept to a minumim to keep the thread reasonably easy to follow during the year.

On a recent flight from PDX to SFO, I sat next to the guy who was the "Birthday Boy" on Chucko the Birthday Clown back in December of 1955. Really cool guy. Gave me his autograph.

UAInsider Aaron Goldberg in PDX Alaska Boardroom. Shows #6 on Upgrade list - with F already full - for UA 464 PDX to ORD.
34 on the UA upgrade list. Posting from my comfortable F seat on AA flight to DFW.
I guess even UA knows the AS Boardroom is better than the UA Club.
