I've seen Deliverance 3 or 4 times and Josey Wales at least a dozen times and I never made that connection. I see it now. I've always said I would make a lousy detective. ;-)
Met Ted Williams when I was 13. He talked to me about baseball for a few minutes. Great guy!
Also did some drinkin with the cast of Conagher down in Canon City Co. when they were filming. Wish I remembered more about that.
Met Sam Elliot at the same time. I don't think he even knows he is a celebrity.

Almost ran over Ronald Regan when he jumped out in front of my truck as I was driving into a motel entrance. His SS men were all over my vehicle like magots on meat.
Taught Vidal Sassoon how to milk a cow at the local county fair.
Had breckfast with author Rita Mae Brown in a blizzard.
Sat and chatted with Cat Stevens at the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec when I was on a high school class trip. Had no idea who he was --but he wrote the words to Moon Shadow on a napkin for me.
Met Rex Trailer when I volunteered at a Special Olympics event.

Met Johnny Cash, and Loretta Lynn when I was younger. Johnny was a flirt and Loretta was so very nice.
Had Hank Williams as a guest for my first communion brunch.
Met Ray Stevens at a local fair. He was a hoot.
Met Stocky in Florida a couple of years ago -- and he proved to be more interesting then the rest!

Yup he was McKinney's partner in Deliverance and they are still good friends in real life, McKinney has been up to visit him a few times in Maggie Valley and they worked together on another smaller movie there recently. There's actually a pic of Herb with his squirrel on his IMDB page. :lol:

Vince Vaughn was the lifegaurd at the private club pool were I took the kids I was a nanny for. He was kind of cute so I talked to him for a while and he said he wanted to be an actor. So I asked him his name -Vince Vaughn- an easy name to remember in case he became famous. Lo and behold a couple years later he made Swingers and the rest is history. My students at school are impressed anyway.
