          All I can say is that it’s a story he told me. It is very possible a professional comedian had some bullshit stories in the pocket but it’s generally believable. I don’t think he believed wither his sense of celebrity died cause he kept doing a lot of coke for years after and I doubt he genuinely thought he saved the troupe cause comedians tend to tell jokes. I’ve met most of the kids in the hall, aside from Bruce which bums me out. Meeting Canadian celebrities in Canada just means you’ve worked at bars or late night takeout places. Met Jack Layton randomly once while we watched a guy jump into a body of water way too large to swim away from cops to avoid an arrest. He just happened to be standing next to me at a public event when this scen went down. It’s a fucking huge country but only like 45 people live here.
