A Stomping Ground for Famous People From: The Chronicle by Jeff Kempenaar Nights at the Highway 401 service centres can be quiet. Imagine though, seeing a sleepy guitar player from the band KISS or coffee craving NHL hockey player enter the doors of the service centre after midnight. It happens every week, a celebrity of some status stops at the gas stations or restaurants along Highway 401 in between Dutton and West Lorne late at night. Long-time service station employee David Munn explains why theemployees at the service station may not get over excited to see acelebrity. "They're just like us. Celebrity mean you’re famous but you shouldn’tbe treated any different. If Steve Yzerman (NHL hockey player) comes inhere I’m going to treat him for who he is, not what he does," said Munnof the Rodney area who works at the Tim Hortons. In the 1980s though, Munn had the thrill of cooking with GENE SIMMONS and PAUL STANLEY of the band KISS. "They were cool. Really normal," he said, adding most bands stay in their tour buses and send an associate in to the restaurant to pick-up food. KISS had just finished a show in Detroit and was headed for Toronto. Munn figured he would give the international superstars a chance of alifetime - to make their own hamburgers at a fast food restaurant. |
