I've had my fair share of weird encounters but i think this was the most unpredictable, and earliest one. I was leaving the Senior center after visiting my great gram gram, and after that we left and Me and my family were just about to walk out the center. And that's when some old lady in a random Conner said that i was a handsome young fellow. And i don't know about you, but i cant just have ONE compliment( Arrogant i know).So I walk over for some reason and start talking to her some more. She was very sweet and very nice so i didn't think anything of it, until she asked for a hug? now i was a dumb 9 year old at the time with no common sense so i gave her a hug and thought to my self "okay,after this ill say bye", and that's what i was hoping to happen. But... she didn't let go.(I was also was behind my family when this happened so they didn't know what was happening). I tried to leave but she wouldn't let go. Then i could hear my Mom calling for me around the corner and i started panicking. in my head i'm just like "WHAT AM I GONNA DO". Plus that old lady was strong, like she had a barbarian grip on me. She was definitely a tough stone when she was younger. then, eventually she let me go. and I was So reveled, Because when i walked out my family was about to leave me. and of course, i get laughed at in the car.
Plus my arms were BURNING after she hugged me

I just posted this for another question, but I think it applies here too. It would have to be the night I met DMX. This happened about 15 years ago. I was living in Phoenix at the time, and worked overnight at a gas station. I definitely met some interesting people, but DMX coming in was by far the best. He came in with a few of his friends. I was a bit stunned, trying to figure out if DMX was actually here. It was all pretty normal until he came up to the counter to look at white owls, (it's a cigar often used to roll blunts). He was looking through them and he pulled out a grape white owl, and then, I swear on all my loved ones life he hopped, then VERY ENTHUSIASTICALLY yelled "I LOVE,... MOTHERF**KIN' GRAPE WHITE OWLS!" Followed by I guess 'whoop whoop!' it's hard to translate. So naturally he purchased it. He came up to the counter with his friends and I started rininging them up, but I was distracted. I finally just asked if he was DMX because I couldn't believe it. I told him I loved his music, and that 'I too love motherf**kin' grape white owls' and he laughed and chatted for a minute. He was really nice, and... Well just a person haha. I know they may sound stupid, but celebrities are so distant from the hoi polloi. But his loud declaration for his love of white owls was the best thing I've ever seen Haha. It was such a weird, wonderful experience.
