Funny, but how did they not recognize Eli even with that big fake nose?

Eli's show on ESPN is really good. He's just a fun loving dude who doesn't take himself seriously at all.

How in the world Eli took out 2 of Belichick’s best teams in the SB is beyond me.

The Giants D-Line played out of its mind in Superbowl 42. Some good bounces.

One time when I met a movie star, I saw one of his movies on the plane ride the night before. My friend recognized him, talked to him, and he even told me he was that movie star.

I did not believe it was him.

Why? Because of the location and details. I was in the middle of BFE waiting in line at a fast food restaurant and they were waiting in line in front of me. And when I say BFE, I mean 40 miles away from the nearest town. He was wearing an army uniform and was in line with other military people.

I thought the guy was fricking with my friend. It wasn't until I left the place that I found out they were making a movie and that was the reason.

In short, you don't expect it and don't even remotely consider it as being possible.

He was actually really cool and I've always had a positive opinion of him since then.

A few years back Greg Maddux did a similar thing. He was disguised as the sound guy on a production for some baseball clinic, and he started heckling the baseball people a little bit, so they said why don't you come give it a try, and so forth.

You met a movie star in a fast food restaurant in costume in the middle of nowhere? I don't believe you. They have trailers and caterers. Not even the extras would be waiting in line at a fast food joint. That's not how SAG works.

He was not "in costume". He was doing research for the role.

And as for trailers and caterers, the only people that were with him were military.

That you don't believe me only goes to highlight my point however. As I said, I didn't believe it was him either. So meta.

I think it depends on the production and $$$$

Was on set for a big budget pic and they had 4 different caterers and one just did soup for the principles.

Been on lots of low budget Indies and it really can be a bit on the thrifty side.

If you get some time on set, make friends first with craft services then find out who caters the union folks, they have the best food!
