In the mid 80's, while working at Perkin's in Cloquet, I had the honor of waiting on Carl Eller.  He was with his family and no, I didn't know who he was until one of the cooks told me and HE wanted to wait on them.  I also waited on actor Sam Shepard and actress Jessica Lange while they were in town visiting her family and again, had no clue it was them.  That's why I wasn't surprised not many people recognized Jerry Rice.  Or, if they did have a notion that he was someone famous undercover, it's always awkward to ask, I mean what if you're wrong.  Why put yourself in the position to be wrong, right?  Would you have recognized him?  Which NFL football player would you like to meet?
