OT: Six Degrees from Kevin Bacon

[Punkbo]

Bacon rhymes with Shakin’ and I like Eddie Money. Does that count?

I had Chris Evert sit on my lap at the US Open, and not just for a few seconds. It was memorable.

Then CTO (syracusefan) walked into the men's room and told everyone to get out. The line to the ladies room was too long, and Chris had to pee.

Ya, I know. nothing to do with Kevin Bacon, but I'm sure she's met him at least once. Doubt if she sat on his lap.

That beats doing anything with Kevin Bacon.

It’s hard to check sports people. I used to park cars at the Simsbury ATP Legends tennis tournament. So we got to hang out with all of them. Stan Smith, Gullikson brothers etc. They all watched golf when they weren’t playing.

Zero degrees. I sat in with the band he is in with his brother.

I think that’s 1°, unless you are Kevin Bacon, which, I suppose, is a possibility.

Sounds like a great dream, thanks for sharing.

Dear Penthouse Forum,

I never thought this would happen to me, but…

Still some time for silly OT threads and everybody is a little too intense in the Celtics Coach thread. So, how far are you from Bacon based on people you’ve engaged with in person.

Me-> Law School roommate went to high school with -> Brad Pitt was in sleepers with -> Kevin Bacon
Me-> Supernatural con where I met Mark Sheppard who was in Broken with -> Tess Harper who was in Criminal Law with -> Kevin Bacon.

That’s two 4s. I was an extra in a movie with Anthony Sabato Jr. but didn’t really meet him (he ran past us). if it counted Me -> Anthony Sabato Jr in the big hit with Mark Wahlburg -> was in Patriot Day with Kevin Bacon. So a 3 but not close enough to count it.

What is your degree of separation from Kevin Bacon? Let’s hear it.

Cheating a bit I suppose; me > KB direct as I was staff at Bacon Bros. concert at Levitt in Westport.

In the spirit of the game. Went to school with and knew Davey Wilson, son of SNL season 1 - 3 director Dave Wilson, who directed John Belushi's first years, John and Kevin Bacon tear it up in Animal House.

Different SNL route. For years I commuted to Manhattan with Tom Farley, brother of Chris Farley and regular Bar Car attendee. Farley knew and was famously memorialized by Adam Sandler on SNL. Sandler appeared with John's brother Jim Belushi on SNL 40.

Me>Farley>Farley>Sandler>Belushi>Belushi>Bacon. 6 steps the nepotist's way.

Yeah, that’s a one. Just like @fleudslipcon.

If I took him out instead of avoiding him than that would be an asterisk zero!

Me—-->watched Tremors<——Kevin, in Tremors.

Spooky, really.

Tremors is my favorite cult movie ever.

My across the street friend from childhood, Royce, produced Matt Damon and Ben Afflecks Project Greenlight, Matt and Ben work with Kevin in City on a Hill.

He and his partner also did Run Ricky Run, and are now doing a new doc on Todd Marinovich.

Kind of expected "Me --> punched Kevin in the throat"

They don't even live that far from each other.

They don't even live that far from each other.

Something tells me one of them avoids the other.
