Yes, Major bummer about Robin Williams RIP Robin.
Damn I'm old, I have a Robin Williams story.
Feb 1986 Me, my girlfriend, her brother and his girlfriend went to the "Comedy Shop" in Hollywood for my girls 21st birthday. We get seats right next to the stage. Arsenio Hall is the host, John Candy is the headliner, and a few other comics were there.
Well the first comedian comes on and asks for a "big black man" and a "big White guy" to help with a skit. I was picked as the "Big white guy". We went back stage and the comedians assistant ready's us for a "skit".....Rocky vs. Drago, with the black guy as Apollo Creed. We take off our shirts and stand in front of these flags, one Russian flag (I was Drago, blonde wig, Russian shorts over my pants, no shirt) and one American flag, Apollo character dressed the same, but with American shorts on, was in front of that. The comedian was going to be Rocky.
Well we do the skit and everybody is laughing there ASS off. When done the assistant says "Great Job! Harry wants to buy you guys a drink", wait for him in the "Green Room", and she shows us the way to the Green room. I walk into the Green Room and there's Robin Williams sitting there with John Candy, Bobcat, Arsenio Hall, and the other comedians performing that night. HOLLY SHIT, FUCKEN ROBIN WILLIAMS! I have nothing for him to sign, so he ends up signing a cocktail napkin for me. I stayed back there 45 minutes bullshiting and drinking with those guys. Are you fucken kidding me, is this really happening? Nobody asked me to leave, I could of stayed there all night.
I go back to my table and my people are like "where the fuck were you"?
I said "partying with Robin Williams!"......they're like...ya right!
No bullshit, he's the "special guest tonight"! Nobody knew Robin was performing that night.
I don't think they believed me until he walked out onto the stage. The look on there faces.......priceless!
