I've got my favorites (Drew, Preston) but they're all great, and I can't really say that any of them were ever standoff-ish or too busy to take the time to meet me and exchange a few words. As a fan, you can't ask for much more than that.
The Good: Meeting TD was a thrill for me. He's the reason I started watching the Boys in the first place.
The Bad: I met Terry Glenn after a tough loss to Denver, and he wasn't in a good mood. He blew off a kid wearing a Terry Glenn jersey. The kid was telling him how he followed his career from Ohio State on and was hoping for an autograph. I felt bad for both of them. Just bad timing I guess.
The Ugly: I congratulated Wade with a "Nice moves out there, coach!" after he got done cutting a rug at the Glass Cactus last year. If you thought the YMCA was bad, you should've seen this. He got a sincere chuckle out of the comment though and patted me on the shoulder. He's a very likeable guy.
Honorable Mention: Having lunch with Deon Anderson twice and bumping into him from time to time is always fun. He's one of the craziest/funniest/nicest guys on the team. Really hard to believe all the stuff that went down at Blackfin that one night, after meeting him.
