I was in Downtown Ft.Worth,Texas about four years ago with my cousin. We had just finished eating and were walking down the street, when I saw a man in a blue flannel shirt. He was walking with 3 other men towards us, and as he got closer,I noticed who he was. I said "You're Harrison Ford" to which he replied,"Yep" with a grin . Have any of you ever met Mr. Ford ?

I've never met him, (I wish) but I can just imagine that exact scenario perfectly, that San Holo described. That's great.

He's actually very friendly in person. He was answering questions and starting conversations with everyone.

I try...

I had read in the french Indy forum that Harrison Ford will go in a TV show.
And we can register by calling the channel.

So I call and register 2 places, for my mother and for me.
I live in Switzerland. I was only16. I can't go in Paris alone.
And we go to Paris.

It was outside the city. So from the airport, we take the metro. And I was so scared to be late, taht we arrive 2 hours before !
And we wait in the studios. The show start with 30min late.
In the finish show, Harrison appear about 10 minutes. But for make that, he stay maybe 30 min.
I was in the first places, in front of the public.
Harrison was about 2-3 meters from me.

It was so great !!!
See him in life, it's much more than on movie or pictures !

Cool story, ElodieJones. :cool:

I don't remember the details but a friend of mine who moved to
New York City met him around '95/'96 in Madison Square Park.

Her parents were Hungarian and she would often speak the
language with a co-worker of hers. One day at lunch in the park,
they were speaking Hungarian to each other and a guy approached
them because he recognized the language. It was none other than
Harrison Ford! They had a brief conversation and he went on his way.
According to her, he was very cool...No attitude at all.
