“We all went crazy,” White told ABC News today. “We ran as fast as we could.”

“The security guard had to tell me to calm down,” said White, explaining that he and his friends are big fans of McCartney in particular. “He said, ‘You can’t go any closer, but you can take pictures.’”

White’s friend, Jacob Murray, took the photo now seen all over the Web.

The snapped stars took it with stride, according to White.

“Paul McCartney and Warren Buffett laughed it off,” he said.

Katy Clarke of Central City was another Nebraska native to get a great photo. On her way home from her 24th birthday festivities, Clarke says she received a kiss from Paul McCartney and a hug from Warren Buffett, telling ABC News she "still can't believe it happened!"
