Morgan Freeman
- Thread starter JoeyA
- Start date
I would listen to his stories, that's for sure.
i did some work at his place some years ago. unfortunately he was out of town so i did not get to meet him.
This ^^^^^ +++++111111
I'd like front row for the stories
I used to see him once in a while in LA at the Ivy resteraunt on Robertson Bl in bev Hills a couple years back, however I havent seen him in a very long time, I have been told he is a triple nice guy. I have never met him.
I can get to Depp easy, he is very close friends with my friend who owns a tattoo shop, I met him before, quite sort of guy, he came to LA to do music and ended up in movies-funny thing is he still wants to be a rock star. not sure if that's widly known, it is a fact tho. Funny how things work out, he is a brilliant actor, he also has a 9' table in his house, AAA Billiards on Bev Hills did his home room in 94, it was Bella Logosi's house(the famous director from many years ago) on Sunset Bl.
Kinda fun stuff to know,
best

PS: yes I think Morgan would be awesome on commentary. he is just awesome period!!!

A reporter interviews Morgan Freeman, after he and JoeyA provided commentary at a local tournament. The interview went something like this.
Reporter: Mr. Freeman, please tell the good folks at AZ Billiards your thoughts regarding your fellow commentator, JoeyA.
Morgan Freeman: I must admit I didn't think much of Joey first time I laid eyes on him; looked like a stiff breeze would blow him over. That was my first impression of the man.
Reporter: What about sitting in the booth next to Joey.
Morgan Freeman: The first night's the toughest. They march you in naked as the day you were born, skin burning from that delousing shit they throw on you...
Reporter: Do you think Joey did an acceptable job in calling the match?
Morgan Freeman: JoeyA crawled through a river of shit and came out clean.
Reporter: Thank you, Mister Freeman.

No, the Morgan Freeman who did a stretch at Shawshank. :smile:

Lol! That's the funniest post I've read here in awhile! Rep to you
Joey, you have some big balls my friend. Hard as pool balls and you swing them more accurately.
You never fail to surprise me with the ideas you come with. And I would not be the least but surprised if you pull it off.
The only piece of advice I have to offer in your quest is to PM Joe Rogan and Justin from TAR. Justin surely has Joe's #. It's a tenuous connection but since Joe is in show biz maybe he knows someone who knows someone who has Mr. Freeman's # and is willing to help put you two together.

That is very cool that you are friends with a friend of Johnny Depp . I am a big fan, and have seen all his movies. He is so funny in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Such a great actor. My favorite actress (when I was a teenager back in the 90's) was Winona Ryder, and he dated her for awhile. I really like Morgan Freeman too. Great actor. I never imagined any normal people being friends with any of these famous actors, but I guess I am silly to think that way.
Is Morgan Freeman a pool fan? If so it would be pretty cool. If not I imagine plenty of awkward moments commentating. At least those awkward moments would be feature Morgan Freeman's voice.
It doesn't matter about Mr. Freeman being a pool fan or not. There are no awkward moments for greatness. Mr. Freeman has "EARNED" his pilot's license at 65 years of age. How many of us could even hope to do that. Morgan is sharp as a razor and I would make sure he would look his best.
Thanks Carl. I will do as you suggest. Please keep me in the loop if you get a response from your cousin. I thought there was a chance that someon on AZB might know Mr. Freeman or knew someone who knew him..
My main hope is that Mr. Freeman is home during this time. I know he will have a good time even if he has never shot a game of pool in his life which is highly doubtfully.

Freeman lives in Charleston, Mississippi, and New York City. He co-owns and operates Madidi, a fine dining restaurant, and Ground Zero, a blues club, both located in Clarksdale, Mississippi.
Freeman has donated money to the Mississippi Horse Park in Starkville, Mississippi. The park is part of Mississippi State University. Freeman has several horses that he takes there.
His co-production company: Revelations Entertainment.
Don't mention race with Morgan: Freeman has publicly criticized the celebration of Black History Month and does not participate in any related events, saying, "I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history." He says the only way to end racism is to stop talking about it, and he notes that there is no "white history month." Freeman once said on an interview with 60 Minutes' Mike Wallace, "I am going to stop calling you a white man and I'm going to ask you to stop calling me a black man."
As Cajunfats said: He married Myrna Colley-Lee on June 16, 1984. The couple separated in December 2007. Freeman and Colley-Lee had adopted Freeman's step-granddaughter from his first marriage and together helped to raise her. Freeman's attorney and business partner Bill Luckett announced in August 2008 that Freeman and his wife were in divorce proceedings. On September 15, 2010, their divorce was finalized in Mississippi.
If I want to find out something, I do have some pretty good research skills. Occupational hazard, I guess. :wink:
Meet Bill Luckett ---> HERE
Sadly, the above-referenced restaurant, Madidi, closed. It was a joint venture between Luckett and Freeman.
As of January 2013, Luckett announced he was running for Mayor of Clarksdale, Mississippi.
His Law Firm: Luckett Tyner Law Firm, A Professional Association
If one is inclined to donate to his mayoral campaign, Luckett might be inclined to pull a few Freeman strings: Luckett for Mayor
Oh, the marvel of politics. That's how it works! :grin-square:
