It’s always fun to meet a celebrity, and when you’re a sports fan, it doesn’t get much better than shaking the hand of a famous athlete.

The following is a list of the 11 most randomly memorable encounters I’ve had with popular sports figures. Because they aren’t always pretty, but at least they’re funny.
