    I met Knoxville at a film function 20 years ago and he was really nice , I was drunk as it was end of night and I didn’t think anyone was around so I just slurred some words and left but always wish I’d met him sober and I don’t even usually drink lol bad luck gonna bad luck 🍀

    Here's a tip: Never, ever look up to actors. They have a team of people to make them seem much more interesting than they really are. They are nothing like the people they pretend to be on TV and in the movies. Unfortunately, people can't seem to separate the actors from the characters they play.

    Once, a long time ago, when I was a young disabled veteran hitchhiking around the west. I went through the Aspen area for a few days. Just checking out things. I use to spend summers as a kid in Colorado.
    I was walking past some stores. There was a man trying to get some boxes full of liquor bottles out a door to his vehicle. He asked me to please help him in his mission. Well, it was HST. He offered to buy me lunch. I ate, he drank. We talked. He was pretty amazing to listen to when he got rolling. He was a nice guy. He was fascinated by my story about getting messed up in the Army overseas.
    He thought it was pretty krazy.
    It was pretty cool meeting him as someone on the street.

    I disagree with all of the comments condemning Hunter's lifestyle. It is difficult to be different and it sounds like he was depressed later in life. Judging someone for being depressed is just mean. You all love him, but look down on him because he isn't like you. Without interesting people like him, the world would be a very boring place.
