I'll start off with the only one i can think of currently.

I've met the whole Parramatta Eels team this year as my maths teacher is also the assistant coach of the under 20's team. A couple of years before I met Jason Taylor when he was coaching the Eels because I had a school comp grand final at Parramatta stadium. I had a 30 minute conversation with him about my future in football as he was impressed with the 2 tries i scored. Truth was I was only playing football for my school because my mates were playing, and I'm more interested in bikes. Another thing on Football, the whole Australian side came to my school for a training day with all of the primary schools from the local area. The ones I met were Petro Civinoceva, David Williams, Billy Slater, Cameron Smith, Greg Inglis and Andrew Johns who was not playing for Aus, but was a trainer.

I've met Chad Reed before, and had a quick chat, that was at the Wollongong supercross before it was 'Super X' a few years back, maybe '06?

I met the usuals at worlds last year, but I only knew the Major, and most heard of riders. Fionn griffiths gave me a signed card cos she was signing heaps of them before anyone got there, and I didn't even know who she was!! Embarrassing for her and me haha.

Theres probably a few more people I'm forgetting, but I've already gone on for too long

Deep Purple at Melb airport in '99 in the QANTAS club.

We were doing a software product launch and my boss was the biggest deep purple fan so coincided the software launch with the Melb, Adelaide and Sydney (from memory.. it was that or NZ.... so long ago) concerts. We would take 20 of our vendors to the gig via stretch limo after our launch.

It was pure coincidence they were on the same flight to Adelaide as us and my boss was like a little school girl about to wet his pants.... being a guitarist I was stoked to see Morse as well.
I dragged the boss over and said gday and Morse and Lord started up a friendly chat with us for the next 30 mins till they called our flight. They though what we were doing was pretty cool. Got some autographs and pics but mainly it was just really cool hanging out with the guys talking shit.

Morse came over to us at the baggage claim while we were waiting for a bit of a chat so we grabbed another couple of pics, he is a pretty funny guy.

 

[for those about to rock]

I was in the same elevator as Bono in Vegas on NYE back a couple of years.

He was definitely #1 all round person in that elevator... (South Park, circa 2000)
