I work in an environment where I have a great deal of exposure to politicians, both folks from the US and heads of state from other countries. I frequently have talked with them but the only one I asked for an autograph was a former US Treasury Secretary, since I thought it was pretty cool that his signature was on all US currency for a few years, so I had to have him sign a few dollar bills for me!

So the Secretary of Treasury defaced government property? The irony is not lost on me.

autographs
Back in 1967 going to the Americana Hotel to get baseball autographs and waiting outside Buddy Rich came out and starting talking to the 10 or so autograph guys waiting for the A's. He almost begged us to get his autograph but no one was interested- just wanted ball players. Other times outside hotels waiting for ballplayers in the 60's we saw Marlin Brando and Art Garfunkel walk by ( not together). Again we weren't interested. More recently saw Tyson at LV airport and Barry Bonds in a Phoenix restaurant but didn't try.
Favorite time was waiting for the Dodgers in the 60's Muhammad Ali walks buy with 2 older men. We recognized him and said Muhammad who are these 2 old guys? (hopefully I used more respectful language but don't remember). Turned out to be Dempsey and Louis. Sad thing is I don't remember if we got them or not.
