I'm going to say my favorite memory is when I did a sketch comedy show. One of my cast mates, and a good friend of mine, is really tight with James Gandolfini, so he came to the show. Gandolfini came out with us afterwards, and I just kind of let them be alone, so I drank with some other people. The waitress came by dropping off drinks:
"Manhattan on the rocks?"
"oh, I didn't order this, but I'll take another please."
"Mr. Gandolfini sent this over."
"Uh...that's the coolest ****ing thing anyone has ever said to me. Thanks."
Toast to Gandolfini.
Waitress comes back.
"Can I get another Manhattan on my tab?"
"Mr. Gandolfini wants to buy it."
"Sure. that's... sure. No problem."
End of night.
"Can I get my tab?"
"Mr. Gandolfini would like to take care of the bill."
Girl next to me:
"Can I get my tab, too?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Gandolfini would like to take care of the entire table's bill."
Eight people. Dinner. Five hours of drinking.
Gandolfini, y'all. Gandolfini.
I've actually met a ton of people, because I worked at a studio for a long time, and my wife is an actress. Jon Hamm got drunk at my house. That was fun.
