This is how my dad met Steve McGarret, and didn't even know who he was:
One night when my dad was an assistaint manager for a local supermarket, a man came up to him and asked if his check was accepted there. My dad looked at it, checked his ID, and apporved it, and the man went on with his business. A short time later, one of the employees went up to his and asked if he knew who that was. My dad said he didn't, and the employee said "That was Jack Lord!"
"Who's Jack Lord?"
[anvil-jaw, bug-eye, anime-sweatdrop, wildtake, colapse]
My dad was never much hip on pop-culture.
Still, Mr. Lord must've been pleased that someone treated him like just another ordinary person instead of a big Hollywood star.
(My mom once caught a glimpse of Jack Lord at the store where she worked at once too.)
