Who here has met the boys....

Not just a "Hi"... but has anyone spent more than 5 minutes with them? Just curious if they come off the way they do on the show. For example, We all know Ant is a Klan loving Nazi on the show but is he that way in real life. Is Opie an insufferable prick the way he comes off on the show, or is he a nice guy? Just curious if you have any stories.

And it's not limited to the 3 hosts. It can be the producers as well.

Everyone knows Opie is the nicest of the 3, but I met Jimmy at his show and he was also incredibly nice

Met them after one of the shows in Montreal and everyone was really nice. Had a chat with Roland at Tim Hortons before the show and he was really easy going as well (even though he was only kind of awake haha).

What did Roland order?

Everything

Never met them but they're probably nice. Opie is nice I bet. Anthony pretends not to be nice although he's probs the nicest one out of the group. Jimmy is nice enough although if you met him in person there is a nice chance he wouldn't be quite as nice as previously conceived. It would be nice to find out though.

I met Anthony at a bar on long island that his brother was playing at. Normal dude, talked about his brothers choices in covers and shooting at calverton. Joe I've actually talked to a few times, obscenely friendly and does cool looping pedal stuff.

I used to have a Line 6 for my acoustic guitar. Looping looks easy but is heavily dependant on timing.

I've met little Jimmie twice. Once at a barley attended show, it was kind of uncomfortable but he still hung around and was great with everyone. Potato quality pic.

My old man was behind him and Vos during a round of golf. Both damn good players apparently.

That's all I got.

Well, not much here as I suspected, was curious, though. I'm sure they are all pretty nice in person. Just reinforces that they all play characters on the show, excluding Jimmy. He seems to be the most honest in terms of who he actually is on air.

because jim dosent need a character, his is honestly a sexy little creep, opie deff plays his character up the most, i bet he's a super nice guy, and ant seems to force his anger alot but he also seems like a nice dude.

I've told this story on here before. When the boys were in Chicago for the live broadcast, I spent about 6 hours playing blackjack in the high limit area with Anthony. It was just the two of us and Keith the Cop. We chatted about things relating to the show and not relating to the show. There were a bevy of show references all night and plenty of BLACKJACKS! He was definitely a real genuine guy, offered to buy me drinks, and seemed to enjoy the company. Keith was also a really nice guy. He was really there to cater to Anthony's needs.

Drink are free at a high limit blackjack table. BS.

Not necessarily.. in some states its illegal for Casinos to comp drinks.

In Vegas yes, but not in shitty Indiana casinos.

So is Keith still a cop or is he solely Ant's butler?

He's retired. He now serves as Ant's bodyguard/pal/therapist/yes man.

Met all three at the Chicago live show. Did my edgar impression for Jimmy and just thanked the boys profusely. They really are great guys and appreciate the love.
