Well if we are talking saying hello and shaking hands, I have a couple.
1968 - Robert Kennedy - during his campaign he arrived at the Kent County airport in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I drove down to the airport, wormed my way through a very large crowd as Bobby was walking along the fence shaking hands. I managed push my way to the front of the line to shake his hand. I was thrilled. (Btw, never shook his hand but also saw JFK in a motorcade during his campaign)
Approximately 1975 - I met and said hello to Michael Landon who was at a local rodeo and also got an autograph picture.
Oh and of course part of the Soprano cast at the Gangster convention in Chicago.
There probably are a few more maybe not so famous people, but for now this it it.

"Mankind must put an end to war before war puts an end to mankind. War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today." JFK
