I think Ray was the nicest guy possible after he quit drinking. There is a pretty funny story about Ray bumping into Wilt Chamberlain in a bar and deciding that the best thing to do was to stand down. Ray and Bart were my childhood idols. I met Ray a couple of times at a hardware show. He was signing autographs in one of the vendors booths. He couldn't have been nicer. The first time he was there my dad decided that we had to keep working so my mom and wife had to go and get the autographs

I've only met one, Nick Barnett. We talked about kids shows we watched while growing up. He was a Transformers fan. He was a decent guy, but holy cow was he intimidating. Built like a brick s&!thouse and not an ounce of fat on him. Definitely would not want to pick a fight with that guy.
Either Lambeau or Lombardi.
A couple of weeks ago when we were in GB for a game Willam Henderson and Bobby Dillon were signing autographs in the Pro Shop on Saturday. We stood in line and got autographs from each of them. Although it was just a brief encounter it was really cool to meet Bobby Dillon because I had never heard of him before and it turns out that he is one of the greatest Packers ever. He stole 52 passes in just nine seasons as a Green Bay Packers safety. He remains the teams all-time interception leader.
I'd be interested to talk to Bob Mann about his experience.
