I feel like I've met a few celebrities, but I can only think of one at the moment.
I went through colony recruitment this past fall, so the process was a little different then regular FR. We had one on one interviews with alums, members of the national board, etc. The morning after all interviews were completed we could go to the Panhellenic office to pick up our invitations for preference ceremony. The office is in the main administrative building on campus. In this building we also have about 100 hotel rooms available for visitors.
I picked up my invitation, and on my way out, I ran into Mindy Kaling (who plays Kelly Kapoor on The Office) checking into the hotel. She was here for some comedy show that weekend. I saw her while she was waiting for the elevator to her room. I was SO excited because I just love The Office, so I had to say something. I said something along the lines of, "OMG I LOVE THE OFFICE AND YOU DO SUCH A GOOD JOB, ITS SO FUNNY! Good luck at your show tonight, I wish I could make it but I can't!" (I had my preference party that night!) I basically made an ass of myself, lol. She was so friendly though, she was like "Aw thank you, you're so sweet!"
So that's my most recent brush with fame.

Speaking of Jeff Jordan, he goes to my school now, and a good friend of mine hangs out with him often. My friend is really good friends with Jeff's girlfriend. I met him once or twice, and he was really nice. I'm not sure why, but I was expecting him to be cocky, lol
I always secretly hope I'll run into Michael on Dad's weekend...
