 Tom Brady

 

Hank Aaron-he's already been mentioned, for me a great choice because of all he endured during his achievements. My second baseball idol behind Jackie Robinson.

 

Rob Gronkowski-because he would make me laugh. And to try to convince him to stay in NE and not retire.

My Mom met Bobby Orr in an elevator, she said he was so nice. He's a real gentleman.

 

I've met several athletes at their book signings. Honestly David Ortiz was a big disappointment, maybe he was having a bad day. Mike Lowell (so handsome), Tim Wakefield, Dustin Pedroia..all very nice. Tedy Bruschi, I have a massive crush on him and he was so gorgeous in person. Very nice too.

 

Many years ago I went to the book signings of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson. Larry was shy, very polite. Magic was great, always remember his big smile. Went to Ted Williams book signing with my Mom when he was still alive.

Oh it's too many to name, just off the TOP of my head.

Magic Johnson - To hear about all the medical advancements he has funded for HIV

Muhammad Ali  - To hear about his journey with the media and living in his time

Arthur Ashe, Bill Jean KING, Jackie Robinson
