BHS'80 flight stories
I'll get things started:
In 1995, I was headed to the Kickoff Classic football game to see the Buckeyes play Boston College. On the plane going to and coming back from New York was Judy Theibert.
Then, in 1996, Bill Burke and I were on the same flight from Columbus to Detroit to catch connecting flights to other cities.
When it comes to flying with celebrites, sometime in the '70's, on a flight from Bangor, ME, to Boston, my family and I were on the same flight as former Boston Celtic K. C. Jones.
In 2004, on a flight from Dallas to Columbus, I was on the same flight with sportscaster Dick Enberg, who was coming to town to work the first and second round NCAA men's basketball tournament games that year at Nationwide Arena. One big difference was that Enberg sat in first class, and I, of course, did not. Oh, my!
Roanne Smith Foley relates a couple of her experiences:
I met David Hasselhoff from Bay Watch at the Indy airport about 18 years ago. He was playing Night Rider then. He was conceited and snobby. Sad but true.
I was in Chicago boarding a plane to Rochester, MN. last Nov. I saw a man with red carhart overalls, a white beard,long white hair and a red back pack monagrammed Santa Claus. I said, " Santa will you bring me diamonds for Christmas?" He said, " You mean you want bling bling?" I said , "Yes!" He said, "The best I can do is to give you wishes for good health and a happy family." I said, " How come your not flying your reindeer?" He said, " The FFA does not let me fly them much since 9-11. On Christmas I recieved some nice bling.
I know that there really is a Santa now! Santa is a much nicer guy than David Hasselhoff, even if David is better looking.

Scott Hanna e-mails this story that will make you "want to rock and roll all night and party everyday..."
A few years back, I was in Detroit waiting on a flight and sitting next to me was Gene Simons from KISS. We exchanged a few words, basically complaining about the delayed flight. He was heading to Columbus to do a radio promotional bit. And no...I didn't ask him to stick out his tongue.
I wonder how Scott recognized him without the face paint.
Keep those stories coming to dmeckler@att.net.
Thanks.
