Ok, give us a couple of crazy stories. Bonus points if they include sex or administering LSD to the masses.

Not sure if that was aimed specifically at me or you just wanted crazier stories.

I did three episodes of Insomniac. None of it was really crazy because they were relatively boring stops (Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota). Funniest part was in Michigan...they thought we were the Girls Gone Wild crew and got a lot of unsolicited tits on tape. Far more than Comedy Central would ever let them use for sure. I guess that is in Dave's personal collection now.

Otherwise, all the good stuff was on the show. I never saw any drug use beyond pot and the ladies gave us all the attention in the world while the cameras were on...as soon as that camera was off...they were off. No one got laid, but everyone got drunk and got all the junk food and 4am meals you could stand.

Now maybe the NOLA, Key West, San Fran, Amsterdam episodes had far better behind the scenes stuff that my friend will never admit to in front of his wife.

Was on Jerry Springer once as an audience member back when it was still in Chicago.

I asked one of the "guests" a question at the end of the show (it was for a guy named Elmer who "cheated" on his girl with a huge *****). I asked him "Elmer, looks like you bagged yourself more than a kwazy wabbit". Everyone boo'd, and they cut it from the final broadcast (though Jerry walked by me and my buds a few times since we were in the 1st row from his walkway so I did see myself a few times as the came was following him).

When I was younger I went to Kiddieland, and that Rich Koz guy was doing his kids program. I was right next to him as he did a live shot. Then I tapped on his microphone and he yelled at me.

I've been on television several times! American Idol is my claim to fame hahaha. But one time I did a segment on The Doctors that was hilarious.

I'll be on TV this Thursday night (White Sox Game behind Home Plate). I've been in these seats 6 or 7 times so on TV for those appearances.

September 1987 I was interviewed by ABC 7 Chicago (IIRC) on the horrible fumes that came out from Unocal in Bridgeview. 10 months later the plant exploded.

A good friend of mine did the sound for that old Comedy Central show "Insomniac with Dave Attell". He had to miss a few Midwestern stops for the arrival of his first born and I filled in.

I think it was the show in Columbus, OH that they turn the camera on me trying to keep the boom mic in range while in a sea of drunken women that start grinding all over me as soon as the camera light hits us. Dave says something like: "Its so crazy in here...even the sound guy is getting laid tonight."

(I did not)

Loved that show
