I was asked how many famous people I've met. I had to actually think of it for awhile. So I'll name some of the celebrities I've met. This is in no way bragging. Kinda sounds like it, but someone asked.
Buddy Valastro (from the TV show Cake Boss) - Met him at an airport at 4 AM with his son. My wife noticed him and we kept it quiet due to the fact we're in a very public place, he has his son with him. He appreciated us not making a scene.
Kyle Hebert (voice actor) - Met him at A-Kon in 2013 and 2014. Signed my shirt, took some photos, and got a video of him doing Evil Ryu's intro lines, "Violence is who I am!"
Paul Mooney (writer, actor, stand up comedian) Used to write jokes for Richard Pryor back in the 80's, and did some acting on Chappelle's Show.
Bob Saget (actor, director) Mostly known as the original host of America's Funniest Home Videos, and the dad on Full House. Met him at Caroline's On Broadway.
Dope (band) Met them twice in Dallas. Very down to earth guys.
Combichrist (band) The lead singer Andy LaPlegua is like 6'5" and from Norway, and he goes to hug me. I thought I felt my spine snap.
Nero Bellum (Lead singer of Psyclon Nine)
Kristof Bathory (lead singer from the band Dawn Of Ashes) Quiet but cordial. Signed a CD and snapped a photo with me and the wife.
I've also met a bunch of professional wrestlers. I've also worked in the business for a couple of years.
Bret Hart
Triple H
Jerry Lawler
Mick Foley
Chris Benoit (Who was the center of the 2007 double-homicide-suicide, where he killed his wife and son, then himself)
Raven
Charlie Haas
Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart
Matt Hardy
Balls Mahoney (RIP)
Paul Bearer (RIP)

Ron "Faarooq" Simmons
Luna Vachon (RIP)
Traci Brooks
April Hunter
Juventud Guererra

Do you have any stories of meeting famous people?

The closest way to meet famous people are to attend concerts even if you don't talk to them directly

You're lucky because if I was lucky enough to meet a celebrity I would be too shy to talk to him or her

Can't believe I forgot this one.
Back in February my wife and I went and saw Gabriel Iglesias, aka Fluffy. Mostly known for his stand up comedy, and movies like Magic Mike/Magic Mike XXL, The Nut Job, etc. We waited after the show two hours to see if we could get a picture with him, and to give him something my wife made for him. We also met the other three comics on the tour. Rick Gutierrez, G Reilly, and Martin Moreno, Fluffy's best friend and stand up as well. All four gentlemen were extremely nice given the fact it was about 2am.

I've never really had a bad experience except for one. I won't say whom.
Looking at my list, there's another one I forgot. I met legendary wrestler Ric Flair at a meet and greet at a casino.

My dad was married at one point to the cousin of the governor of New Jersey from 2002-2004, Jim McGreevey. He resigned due to a sex scandal due to him cheating on his wife with another man. I'm not a big politic fan.

I think I might have seen Jesse Jackson at a ball game but I didn't speak to him. There were bodyguards around

Would it count to just see them at conventions or do you have to talk to them. I'm like most people and would be too shy to say hi and talk about their latest film

That sounds like me too. I'm too shy to speak but if there was a line up to sign autographs then I would definitely wait in line
