    I got the autographs of the original Black Sabbath lineup at a promo for their reunion tour in 99 or 2000. Ozzy smudged his marker so I got his fingerprint as a bonus.

    Got my dad a Ted Nugent autograph since I knew he was a fan. He was at the local sportsman’s gear show, so I was cool with going to that anyway. I think that’s the first time I saw a live bald eagle up close, so that was really cool. Ted played some guitar, which was good, and then gave a really strange talk. I only later learned everything else about Ted other than he liked to hunt, so that is a very mixed experience in hindsight.

    Got Jerry Lawler’s at a ComicCon where he was promoting his comic. Got Adam West’s there too.

    The ex got the Ghost Hunters’ at a different ComicCon. She was very excited, but I had no idea who they were at the time.

    When I was a kid I wrote to a few baseball rookies and got their autographs. I still have them somewhere, but nobody who ever became anybody. There was a player with the same name as me that I wrote a few times, but he never wrote back. Jerk.

    Those are all the ones I can think of.
