It’s surely amazing to run into someone that you personally know, but what about running into someone that everyone knows? Well, it surely will be something memorable, and hopefully it went smoothly, because if it was awkward, then it calls for a share with folks online. 

Chuck Wending on Twitter, @ChuckWending, decided to ask people to share their weirdest celebrity encounters ever. With over 5k likes, the tweet contained famous people of all calibers: Ice-T, John Waters, Hulk, Sting and others. And it seems that any public spaces such as lifts, airports, Disneyland and bars are the perfect setting for those meetings to happen. Enjoy these serendipitous encounter stories that were quite random and a little bit awkward and vote for your favorite ones.

Should have said "Nah, I've been in an elevator before, glad your enjoying it though".

Dad's reaction was hilarious. He didn't seem too phased by it.

No shame in your game, Mr. Bae. Chris Pine rocked that role.

I once shook hands with Bobby Kennedy—he was on his last swing through California and stopped at the San Jose (then) Municipal Airport. He was assassinated three days later.

Sorry about your dad. He was really good at selling stuff. I admit I bought several things he pitched

I like that Neil Gaiman is on this thread twice, as both the celebrity and the encounter-er haha
