I met Kris Kristofferson at the Toronto airport as I was coming back from a holiday with my 4 1/2 year old son and 7 month old daughter. She was in the luggage buggy and he was running around. When I looked behind me to see where he'd run off to I noticed a guy all inblack, longish hair and beard. I thought he looked like KK. A few seconds later he was right beside me! He said something like "I know about traveling with kids" and I was looking into those beautiful blue KK eyes!! omigosh!!!! He scurried past and it was then I noticed other people recognizing him. We went out to go to the parking lot and he was standing there looking around. We asked if we could help and he said he was supposed to have a car pick him to take him to King City where he was shooting a movie. We offered him aride but his car drove up a second later. He said 'thanks' and that was that!
