I met Eddie Izzard today at Disneyland. Reddit, who is the most personable celebrity you have ever met?
Post Body

My sister and I were walking away from the Disneyland area and towards California Adventure. We were about halfway across the main "plaza" and I saw what's called a Plaid, someone who gives tours around Disneyland/CA for rich/famous people. Today was the press unveiling of Cars Land, the new area in CA, so I had seen many plaids walking around with various potentially famous people.

I spotted the Plaid, looked around her general vicinity, and immediately spotted the unmistakable walk, wardrobe, and face of Eddie Izzard. I grabbed my sister's shoulder, pointed him out, and we henceforth freaked out.

I convinced her to walk up calmly to Mr. Izzard, the Plaid, and (what we assume to be) Mr. Izzard's friend, and we politely asked the Plaid if we could quickly say a hello. She agreed.

I softly said "Excuse me," got his attention, and two breathless fans with pastel colored hair (mint green and faded pink) shook hands and exchanged compliments and conversation with Mr. Izzard for about forty-five seconds.

The buildup in this story was most likely not worth the outcome for the reader.

From the time I am writing this, I met him about three hours ago, and I am still giddy.

Please share your stories.

EDIT 1: No picture proof, sorry, I didn't want to bother him.
