Matthew was kind enough to take care of something that's been bugging Dave.

    5/18/98 This tall man with a Late Show with David Letterman hat on came out of the stage door of the Ed Sullivan Theater. He had some bodyguards with him, turned and went walking down the street. We couldn’t see who it was and we were already risking being late for our client meeting. I thought it might be Harry Connick Jr., so I turned to my friend Tim McKee and said, “We’re staying here until we find out who that was”. You see, it was my very first business trip to NYC. We got in early and had spent the afternoon walking around Manhattan. When we happened upon The Ed Sullivan Theater stage door, it was at around 5 pm so we knew they were taping and decided to stand there by the barricades and limos and see who came out. That’s when the tall man who I thought was Harry Connick Jr. came out, and I declared to Tim (who was my boss at the time) that we were staying put. Well, the man and the bodyguards did come back, and it was none other than Matthew Perry. 1998. The height of “Friends” popularity. He went back into the theater through the stage door. Turns out he was playing a prank with Dave by defacing the Friends billboard. Well, you better believe that I was not going to budge, come hell or high water until he came back out to leave. I just wanted a picture OF him…not WITH him. I mean, there were barricades and I’m ballsy, but not that ballsy. Well, apparently I am that ballsy, because when he was coming back out, I basically shoved my little Kodak camera in Tim’s hands and said, “I’m going to try to get a picture with Matthew Perry!” Nonchalantly walked around the barricade, and politely asked the bodyguard/limo driver if I could get a picture with Matthew. He said, “stand right here”, which was right by the limo. Matthew came out, the bodyguard asked him to take a picture with me, and he graciously agreed to do so. Tim snapped the photo of a lifetime. It looked like I was getting into the limo with Matthew Perry. Unfortunately, the photo got destroyed during a very dark period of my life. 😢 I’ll never forget that day and how sweet and gracious Mattew was to take a picture with a fan from Nebraska. Rest in peace Matthew. And thank you for that singular moment we shared.

    Honestly, wish he could have seen himself the way others did. It breaks my heart after reading his book, to know that he had so many demons and all he was going through throughout his career and relationships. I’m glad he found God, he talks about spirituality in his book…that is what is comforting after his untimely passing.

    He's not in the top 10 or anything but he did great for his character on Friends and at least 1 movie. That's a success any way you slice it. Maybe his thing was more "sarcastic entertainment."
