EXCUSE ME, IS THAT TONY SOPRANO IN THE GUN DEPARTMENT?

A friend of ours was gazing in the showcase of the gun department at Big 5 Sporting Goods on Wilshire when he became aware of someone’s labored breathing next to him and it sounded oddly familiar. He looked up and the man said with a thick New York accent “They sell guns here?” It was James Gandolfini, clad in sweatpants and sneakers (no gold jewelry.) The Sopranos star and a buddy glanced at the guns, but they drifted over to the knife department and purchased pocket knives.

  1. Never saw the Sopranos. But my curiosity was piqued about why Edie Falco was so highly-regarded. After seeing her in a hilarious guest slot on Will & Grace, I could see why. And her series, “Nurse Jackie” sealed the deal—she is one of the most talented actresses working today IMHO. 🙂

    One can also understand why Stanley Tucci (another favorite) left his wife for Edie several years ago when they were starring together in “Frankie and Johnny” on Broadway.

  2. Oh, and Janet: “…someone’s labored breathing next to him…”

    Cracked me up. Stellar writing!

  3. Not just “labored breathing” Monah, but “labored breathing” that sounded “oddly familiar”.

  4. Maybe he should have joined the cast of “The Black Swan” so he too could drop a (much needed) scary amount of weight. If he’s breathing THAT loud, and I’m sure he is judging from that enormous belly he’s sporting, then he’s got some serious health issues. Anybody who loves this guy needs to do an intervention and drag him off to a lap band or O band or whatever it’s called, stomach surgery and STAT!

  5. Is he the illigitimate son of W. C. Fields? Or is that a egg-full of Silly Putty devouring the middle of his face?

  6. Is he gay?
    Why is he on this site?
    Reta grrrr is nothing sacred.
    Wouldn’t it be fun to run with him for a night.

  7. Tony’s line to Melfi in her office: “Ya know being in here,it’s like taking a shit..”
    Melfi: “I like to think of it like Childbirth..”
    Tony: Trust me, It’s like taking a shit…”
    Melfi: …”uh…. OKAY…
