Thurs Oct 20 -- it's 1982
« Reply #45 on: October 20, 2005, 11:02:14 AM »
Fast Times Triva Answers:1)  Spicoli's two stoners who fell out of the smoke filled van were played by Eric Stoltz & Anthony Edwards (2 frink pts for Rastermon on Edwards & an extra pt for the red hair).





These two guys were friends in Santa Barbara as early teens & roommates at USC.


2)  Brad Hamilton's friend who sits with him in the cafeteria was played by Nicolas Coppola (who then started using the stage name Nicolas Cage so as not to unfairly draw on his uncle Francis' coattails).




3)  When Spicoli says the famous line, "People on 'Ludes should NOT drive," he was driving the car of his friend's older brother, the football star, played by Forrest Whitaker (2 frink pts for Davefish).




The pizza guy was Taylor Negron




and yes, I knew all that stuff off the top of my head.

Mark, did you really expect anybody to guess "Taylor Negron"?  I've never heard of him.

Well he's had over 100 film & TV credits, so I can't imagine you've never seen him in something, plus which he is Chuck Negron from 3 Dog Night's cousin(!).  What more do you want?

Wow, I never knew Taylor was related to Chuck.  I had him on the tip o' me tongue (could see his face in front of me but drew a blank, name-wise). He's one of those guys that, being a tad, er, fey (no relation to Tina), people assume is gay, but he's keeping mum on the subject. Maybe he should team up with Bronson Pinchot.

Hey, folks- I won't be able to join you all tomorrow (10/21) as I will be preparing to carpool to San Martin for a murder mystery.

Here's hoping the wheel lands on your favorite year!
