Weird coincidence - tell me yours

The weirdest thing happened to me today. I was waiting at an international airport terminal for a family member and getting coffee when I thought I spotted a famous sports player next to me. I spent a few mins trying to surreptitiously look sideways and eventually he got up and I realised it wasn’t him.

I then went to the arrivals gate to wait for family member. About 15 mins later - I kid you not - the actual real life famous sports person exited the arrivals gate and walked past me. It was 100% not the same man from earlier.

Am I insane - or is that an insane coincidence?! I’m sure you'll all think I’m crackers but I’m always looking for a meaning or sign from the universe too 🤣

I was in a gift shop years ago. I was choosing four ornaments with names on for a display cabinet. I choose my daughters names, and one daughters partner, they didn't have the other daughters partners name so I choose a random one. She spilt with him soon after and met and married the name I had chosen for her.
