A few years back i was visiting my brother in Minneapolis. We decided earlier that week that we were going to fly to Chicago to watch a Bears game. Coming home we were sitting in the Northwest Airlines World Perks Club minding our own business when in walks boxing legend - Muhammad Ali - his wife and what looked like a couple of his kids. They sat in the same seating area as us. A bunch of Northwest employees brought in their cameras and started snapping pictures with him. He was very gracious and patient and had time for each of them. He never said a word the whole time. Once they all left him alone he started reading the newspaper so we didn't bother him for another photo. His wife gave us the nod like she appreciated us leaving him alone. All in all, still a very cool experience.
