Off Circumstance

Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met?

I was sitting in a cocktail bar waiting for a flight out of Minneapolis. I had just run a marathon the Day before. My date was there for the party. So I was tired and high on endorphins.

And in walks the Smothers Brothers. I never knew much about them when they sauntered into the bar. They commanded the room. We had a beer together and told a few jokes. They were rather fun for those thirty minutes.

I didn’t know they were famous until my date told me so. In retrospect I can see why they were famous.
