Myself and two of my friends were going to attend a book signing/talk he did here in Buffalo a little over ten years ago. It was UB or Buff State. We were late, and the powers that be, shut the doors on us. We were pretty upset. My one friend had the idea of going around to the side door of the theater by the stage, to see if maybe we could see anything. We could barely see Bruce on the stage through the crack in the door. For a couple minutes, we took turns trying to see what was going on. This friend also had the brilliant idea of slipping some money through the crack, to see if anyone would maybe sneak us in. We were stupid teenagers. We could hear laughter and then the money disappeared through the door. More laughter. My friend yelled at the door that his gas money for the week was now gone and tried to peek through the crack again. All of a sudden, his eyes got really wide and he backed away from the door. "Oh, shit!" BAM! The door has just been kicked open by Bruce Fucking Campbell. We just stood there. Jaws completely dropped. "If I let you three in, will you stop interrupting my show? Get in here" I just kind of walked in. My two friends jumped up on the stage. Everyone was staring at us...it was caught on film, as far as I recall. He yelled at my two friends to "get the fuck off his stage." We sat down on the floor for the rest of it. It was pretty amazing. When he was signing our stuff, he laughed at all of us and asked me what I was doing with the two "yahoos." He also told me he felt sorry for me. He was great. Sadly, I lent that book to someone a few years later and never got it back. :( I hope to meet him again, someday. Even if I don't it's a great memory. I hope this was coherent.
