Man, that would be annoying.

"We're sitting here on a boat ride through the Caribbean baby! Look at Jack Sparrow sitting on that treasure! He's my diaper dandy and wins my 'three S' award...super, scintilating and sensational!!! He must have gone to Duke and learned his skills from Coach K! Speaking of Coach K, looks like another Final Four for Duke baby! Yo ho ho...this ride is awesome baby!!!"

We're back from our first WDW trip since loosing my Wife to cancer in July. The kids did really well, Daddy was another story.... But on a fun side note to the trip, we had our first celebrity sightings ever!

We saw Mick Foley (professional wrestler, New York Times best selling author) and comedian Steve Harvey. We saw Mick in line right behind us on Tower of Terror. He's a big guy, I'm about 6'2", 275lbs, and he dwarfed me. He was very nice and gave us a wave. We then saw him later in the week at the Kidani Village pool (where evidently he was staying as well). Steve Harvey was at Guest Check in at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. He had a huge entourage surrounding him.

Pretty neat stuff, the kids got a kick out of it because we (I and members of my Wife’s family that came along) kept making a big deal out of it. As if we are not big kids already, we all acted like star struck 13 year olds.:rotfl:

Not at Disney World, and probably not a real celebrity, but when we were waiting in line at Splash Mountain in Disneyland in June, we were in the handicap/single rider line and it is along the exit and Carlton from Fresh Prince (Alfonso Ribeiro) had just exited the ride and walked past us. He seemed a little annoyed even though nobody bothered him, maybe that was the problem:confused3.

We were on Castaway Cay several years ago when we were very fortunate to have Roy Disney join us on the shuttle cart heading down to the adult beach. He was very classy, and even shared some upcoming DVC secrets with us. He will be missed.

Thomas Gibson (Dharma and Greg) sat behind us at Beaches 'N Cream in December. We ate at the counter, and was oblivious.

As we were leaving a family got the kitchen sink, and everybody cheered.

He had his small video camera recording his family experience the kitchen sink...and no...I did not think that was the right time to go seeking an autograph or to take a picture. They looked like a really nice family.

I would have loved to have had a conversation with him. He mentioned on Leno several years ago that he worked as an actor at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival here in Montgomery. I would really like to ask him about that experience.

I just came across this great thread! Cool idea.

Back about 15 years ago, we saw Louis Gossett Jr. in the Yacht Club lobby. We were all waiting in line to have holiday pictures taken with Tigger and Pooh Bear. He was taking pictures of his own family and commented to us that our DS2 looked like quite a handful :rotfl:

Summer of 2009, my DH and I were waiting for our 2 kids who were in line for Expedition Everest and 1 car behind them was Dylan and Cole Sprouse from Sweet Life of Zack and Codey. We were jumping up and down trying to get the kids to look behind them but they just thought we were crazy. When the kids saw the video, they finally believed us!!

1996 - Oprah flew her whole audience down.

We were not a part of that audience. But we did see her in the afternoon parade.

Last July after riding EE, my sister, some friends, and I were looking in the gift shop when our friends started freaking out. It turns out Michael Jackson's kids were also there and had just rode EE as well. Both Paris and Prince looked at some gifts while their security just hung out slightly behind.

In 2007 my high school choir sang in the Candlelight Processional and my mom was one of the chaperones for our group (in case someone passed out or needed help). While waiting backstage in between shows, Rita Moreno, the narrator for the evening, personally thanked and shook my mom's hand.

I saw Scott Hamilton and Pat Sajak in the same visit, but my sister waited on Wayne Brady and Richard Gere when she was in the college program and didn't even recognize them until they had checked out and the other cast members came over. She's just oblivious, but they probably appreciated it I think.

I have to confess that I am pretty sure that I wouldn't recognize a celeb. if they bit me.:confused3 I don't look for anybody, I don't recognize anyone unless they are on TV or Movies and that is only when they are actually on TV or in the Movies.

I might notice Sandra Bullock, but other than that...not so much!

We were walking in to Morrocco at Epcot last week. First I saw the VIP guide and then I heard an unmistakable voice with a New Jersey accent. I looked up and saw Buddy, the Cake Boss. It was his wife's voice I heard. By the time I got my camera set, all I got was this:

I just found this old thread, and I guess we maybe lucky, my 3 DD's met up with David Archuletta at the outlet mall a few years ago and then the next day it was the soft opening of American Idol Experience and they got pics with many of the idol contestants.

But on 2/20 it took the prize when we were walking through the castle at MK and right next to me was Sir Paul McCartney, his wife and daughter. Very cool to see him enjoying his day! My aunt got a picture from the a distant (side view) but once I saw the pic. of him on line with his daughter riding the speedway it confirmed it was truly him, same hat, glasses and clothing.

This didn't happen to me, but when my brother was in the 6th grade or so, he went to Disneyland with his school. Anyways, he got hurt on Tom Sawyer's Island and guess who was there and came to see if my brother was okay? None other than THE Tom Hanks.

We were at WDW during the parade taping in 2008. My DD was a huge Hannah Montana fan at the time so seeing Miley made the trip extra special.

We saw Wynonna Judd last Tuesday at WDW. She had a tour guide and her fiancee and i think her kids with her.

We saw Benjamin Franklin, Betsy Ross, and Colonial Mickey, Donald, and Goofy. They spend the day on July 4th at the American Adventure in Epcot.

(OK, I really hope you know I am kidding.)

The Franklin and Ross characters were fascinating to see, talk to and take pictures with.
