Alice Cooper and Sting are real cool in person. They usually sign and talk to their fans. (My friend always go to the movies with Alice Cooper everytime he is in town. And he always brings his own salt for the popcorn.....)
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr was nice when I met them back in the 90s, but I have been told they are much harder today.
Arnold Palmer have I never met, even though I live in Orlando.......

i like Alice Cooper, i've meet him in Vegas in 2007. he's really cool [like you said].
he also signed 4 things for me.
Arnold Palmer is a cool guy, i've been at a Golf Tournament before and he'd sign 500 autographs at one time literally! and he cares alot about his fans.
thank you for sharing your stories about the Beatles, they are TRUE LEGENDS not just in music, but in ENTERTAINTMENT.

I've met many celebs, like most people here, but the 2 Iwould like to meet the most is Dan Marino and Jose Canseco, 2 of my favorite childhood athletes. I have both of there autographs already (bought Marino from Mounted Memories dealer and Jose Canseco from an antique mall in Byron, GA, that I had JSA authenticate,) so I would not ask them for their signatures. Rather, I want to meet them to tell them how much joy they brought me by smashing all those homeruns and throwing all those touchdown passes. A hand shake, a smile, just 15 seconds of conversation, and a picture if they had time would be all I'd ask for. Say what you will about these 2, but for my money, nobody was better in their respective sports than these 2 during my generation. NOBODY.

Marino and Canseco were both at the Mounted Memories/Sun-Times Sports Show (Rosemont, IL) in March.  While I didn't personally meet either of them, everyone I talked to said Marino was a fantastic person to meet - true gentleman and a real class act who seems to genuinely appreciate his fans. 

 

Here's my very short list:

 

Jay Leno

Conan O'Brien

Bono

The Edge (via telephone, lol)

Linda Hamilton

Kristanna Loken

Linda Blair

Rush Limbaugh

Michael McKean

Brent Spiner

James Tolkan

Roddy Piper

Bobby Hull

Pete Rose

Matt Hasselbeck

Reggie White

Ray Nitchke

2010 Packers: Clay Matthews, BJ Raji, Nick Collins, BJ Raji, Sam Sheilds, Tramon Williams, John Kuhn

 

Also been close to several celebs in different circumstances, though I wouldn't qualify it at "meeting" them:  Matt Damon, John Malcovich (no way I was even going to approach him and ask for an autograph), William Shatner, Walter Koenig, Adam West, Michael Biehn, Lindsay Wagner, Billy Zane, Ian Zeiring, among others.

Jason

The Star Wars celebs where at Wonder Con in SF a few years back. Fisher was charging $35.00 per autograph and Mark Hamil was charging $100.00 per item and his line was out the door.

Also got Elvira there she charged $20.00 per item and looked pretty hot
