Ok, so maybe you know maybe you don't but a lot of famous people fly on Southwest. I think if they are flying on the studio's money they fly someone with a first class section but if they are flying on their own dime they want to save a few bucks just like everyone else. Plus we have good frequency and are on time mostly so it makes sense. I've had a lot of celebrities on my flights, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Paula Abdul, Smokey Robinson,David Spade,Joe Nichols,Courtney Gaines, these are just off the top of my head. I had a list going for awhile but not sure where it went. Anyway, most of the time I say hello and smile and go about my business. I mean they're just regular folks who do an irregular job and get paid a ridiculous amount of money for doing it. Whatever!!
Well today I made an exception to my rule. I am not a die hard, gotta watch every game kinda football fan. Heck I can't even tell ya who plays for what team any more. But there was a time... I grew up in AZ with no team and so when I moved to the Bay Area back in 1988 I watched the 49ers and got to know that team and Joe Montana and Jerry Rice! Wow talk about some talented guys! I brought my love for the Niner's with me when I moved back to AZ and years later met and married a guy from San Francisco who loved them as well.
Which brings me to today and the reason I broke my so called rule and asked the man if he'd mind having his picture taken with me. He was kind and gracious, not only to me but others on the flight who recognized him and asked for a picture or autograph as well. Plus he can move on the dance floor as well as the football field, who knew??
Me and Jerry Rice

How fun, it's always weird when you see celeb's I think. It is like you think of them as almost not real because they are in every mag and stuff and then when you see them in person it's like ok, they seriously are just people. YOu definatly have seen a whole lot more than me:)
You are so cute. Seriously.
I agree with Kayla. It's so weird to see them in person. The weirdest one was seeing Paris Hilton. She seriously didn't look like the Paris I've seen in pictures. She was much better looking.
That's crazy!! How awesome is that:) Was your hubby so jealous?
Yeah, I know I'm a loser I love "The Hills." My husband makes fun of me all the time:) I'm living in Mesa until the end of Nov. When our house is done and I can't wait! I feel so out of the loop:(
That is so cool! I love Jerry Rice! So glad to hear he's a nice guy!
