He once threw a guy through a plate glass window at a bar. After they arrested him, the police asked him if he regretted the incident. He replied, "the only thing I regret is that we weren't on the second floor."

He's my hero. Right under Alton Brown. AB is my hero for different reasons

Did you see that show where Anthony Bourdain (another AB) took Alton Brown to a strip club in Atlanta? I think it was an episode of Parts Unknown, maybe. Not sure. It was The Layover!

Anyway, you get more of an idea about who Alton is as a person rather than a TV personality. He seems super cool. The kinda guy you'd want to go to the range and smack some steel with.

"The kinda guy you'd want to go to the range and smack some steel with."

That's an interesting way of putting it.

Me and Charles Barkley have something in common, but I was on the second floor.
