almost famous….
I waited on my first celebrity tonight at work. It was only a B list celebrity, but its better than yours. His name is Matt Lillard, but you might know him from the part of Shaggy in the recent “Scooby Dooby Do” movie. Or as the character who couldn’t dance in “She’s All That.” Or (this is for the computer geeks) he was the weird hyper guy in um….that movie with angelina jolie…”Hackers.”
so, anyway.
He walks in and sits at my bar to watch the game. I saw who he was and ignored him, mainly cuz I couldn’t remember his name. Or really never knew it. B lister. anyway, after a while I told him the food tastes better than the menu so he should try ordering. That was the beginning of our hour and a half long friendship. He got treated like a normal person, I got a 40 percent tip. All is good.
Here are some highlight quotes from the conversation:
M - bourbon? That’s not too classy.
B - this from the guy sipping on a michelob ultra.
M - What’s the drinking age in New Orleans? 13?
B - we play it buy ear, as long as you can see over the counter. otherwise your parents have to hand your drink to you..
M - Ha! That’s a good one.
B - … ok.
M - I left you nothing (on the tip)
B - You’re the worst customer I’ve had all night.
no really. he was a pretty cool guy.
peace out homies. you can all have my autograph in a few weeks.
