I met Westley Snipes back in the 1990s when he was dating a friend of mine. I remember our encounter as if it was yesterday-I was employeed at a movie theater on West 19th st. not to far from Union Square, Here in NYC and Westley came into the theater to see a movie and I was stuck working the lousy consession stand (that day). Needless to say, I wasn't happy with this job assignment because the cash registers were broken and everything had to be calculated manually which was causing a lot of stress since we were premiering a "Big Film" that week!
Westley came into the theater with his entourage and in a few seconds he recognized Me!. I should also note-I was on a previous show (not MTV) and I was dancing nude-(The Robin Byrd Show),Westley had seen the performance with My friend he was dating and he immediately knew it was Me because I heard him scream My name "TONYBOY"...he parted the crowd of people standing in front of the consession stand and lend over the counter to give Me a huge! I will NEVER forget that day...I was a Massive Fan before and still am and Yes! I'm still friends with the woman he was dating at the time. She went on to become a Millionaire❤️!
Super Happy for the resurgence of Westley Snipes!
