Today's Pop Five: Tory L.'s top sunglasses customers

The Pop Five is a series of Pop Candy readers' top five lists. Today's contribution comes from Tory L. (Rick Astley) in Phoenix:

I worked at the Sunglass Hut in Orange County, Calif., in the late '80s and early '90s. After that, I worked at Oakley. Needless to say, I met several famous people during my tenure.

Pop 5 Celebrities Who Bought (or Looked at) Sunglasses From Me:

5. Harriet Nelson -- She was really as nice as she seemed on Ozzie and Harriet.

4. Danny Manning -- He was playing for the L.A. Clippers at the time and was their highest profile player.

3. Andre Agassi -- Met him while working for Oakley. This was in the early '90s, so it was awesome-mullet Andre.

2. Robert Englund -- Freddy Kreuger is a lot shorter than you would think he is. He also seemed really happy when I brought up "Willie" from V before ever bringing up Freddy.

1. Chuck Norris -- No. 1, hands down.
