Check out the 50 coolest celebs Eric LeGrand has met in the 5 years since his injury (PHOTOS)

Eric LeGrand has met countless celebrities in the five years since he became paralyzed while making a tackle in a Rutgers game. Whether it's rapper Jay Z, Yankees legend Derek Jeter or presidential candidate Donald Trump, LeGrand typically doesn't get starstruck.

"They're normal people just like you and I," LeGrand said. "They're really gifted and talented in one aspect of their life for a career, but they're regular people, too."

But after meeting a who's who of stars from music, movies and sports over the past five years, LeGrand said he was most excited to meet a relatively low-profile celebrity this week.
