The voice from Shawshank just called me Cheesehead

1500 miles away from Los Angeles, the 102nd meeting of the Vikings and Packers was played at Lambeau Field last night. Back here in Hollywood, one of my co-workers and I made a bet on the game.

I lost.

Part of my penance was that I had to walk down to our sound stage where the entire crew would be and walk around for a bit. Having to explain that “NO” I wasn’t a Packers fan, I just lost a bet was all part of the “fun.” Anyway, as I was walking toward stage past all the cast trailers, Morgan Freeman’s car pulls up. He, his
assistant and his driver all get out and see me coming. They stop and Mr. Freeman looks at me with a big smile and says “Cheese-Head!” “No, Morgan, I’m a Vikings fan and I lost the bet.” He laughed a big hearty laugh and walked into his trailer. One of the most sough after voices in the world today just laughed at me and called me cheese head.

I proceeded to the stage where I was called up to video area where the director and producers all sit, and then was paraded around a bit, being razzed by the producers and director and most of the crew.

I am now sitting at my desk with a foam block of cheese on my head, where it will stay until the day is over.

F-ing Vikings. F-ing Brett Farv-ra!

  • I'm gonna get Marky Mark and George Wendt to call you a Pats fan when you come out of the water in February.
