Johnny Bench. I was fortunate to meet him to be able to tell him so. I was hoping I'd be able to get a picture with him. Ends up I did not even need to ask. As he was approaching from a distance he yelled over to me "Hey you, with a classy outfit like that get over here and take a picture with me." The classy outfit was my Reds #5 jersey. We spoke for several minutes, and each time I thanked him, he thanked me for being a fan. Great life memories!
