CONFESS!!! Who was the first famous person you ever met

[Xithras]

60. Depends on what you consider "famous"

If we're talking big movie stars, that would probably be Christoper Lloyd, who I met while they were filming Back To The Future 2 outside of Sonora California.

If we're just talking about generally significant people, I knew Julio Gallo from my birth until his death in 1993, and attended his memorial service. Julio Gallo was the co-founder of Gallo wines, the worlds largest winemaker. My grandfather met him in the 1950's, the two attended the same church, and were friends for decades. He was a pretty normal & friendly guy, and I didn't really realize that he was the billionaire owner of a multi-billion dollar winery until I was a teenager. I knew that he was much richer than my family was, but he didn't really flaunt his wealth and I didn't realize HOW MUCH richer.
