You know what?

It is all killer.

No filler week right here on your daily Lex.

Let’s do it your Daily Lex So weeks back I had mentioned I was doing a thing where I played Doc Brown at a 5k race so a guy who I’d done the show misery with he was Running a 5k race to raise money for good causes And the theme of the race of the 5k was the 80s and so people were running in 80s getups And it was all 80s themed and he wanted a scene from a fake back-to-the-future scene to kick off the race And he asked me if I would help out and I of course assumed He was thinking of me for Marty McFly, but I was too old for Marty McFly so I took on the role of Doc and Got a buddy of mine.

Who’s an actor to be Marty.

Who’s you know, literally half my age and So The he’s rented a DeLorean and it’s an official, you know Universal Pictures licensed DeLorean and That’s gonna arrive and I’m supposed to arrive at a specific time And so it’s the Marty actor and so we get there and the car is not quite there yet And then all of a sudden we see the car driving in and for some reason the guy is driving in with the Driver’s door open like it’s fully up if you think of how DeLorean door work and that’s how he pulls in and he is clearly the backup DeLorean delivery guy He also comes with a smoke machine And we’re looking around the car and the the guy running the event will give him a name His name is Mike so I guess we’ll call him that the guy running the event has this idea that people come up and look at the DeLorean take pictures and then Marty and I will sneak into the thing.

They’ll cover the DeLorean and only in the DeLorean will we change into our costumes?

The DeLorean arrives we look inside there is clearly no room for a 6’2 person Honestly, there’s no room for a 5’ person to change in that DeLorean not gonna happen So I say to the guy who’s brought the DeLorean can I see the cover you have for the car because maybe we can just be under the cover and not in the car and Change that way and then I was like, yeah, I gotta get from the hood I’m not that good at opening the hood.

So give me a minute One second later He’s like I just broke the cable that you use to pop the hood and I cut myself in the process and he is like Gushing blood from his arm.

It’s disgusting So I helped him get first aid from Mike and I tell Mike afterwards look Marty and I are gonna go hide behind this building We’ll already be in costume when you are ready We will come out and we’re just gonna come up to the car and start the scene there.

We cannot start in the car He’s like, okay.

He’s clearly highly stressed and he’s gonna say yes to anything I say at this point So it’s good.

I’m not good that he’s stressed.

But you know, my answer is the only right answer to do and At one point we start hearing our cue music, you know the famous back to the future thing And like it’s way too early for us to come out and then we realized that they were playing it by mistake.

So Fine when we do come up when we hear our actual cue There’s so much smoke that like it does look to people like we’ve come out of the car because they don’t even see us come Up because there’s so much smoke everywhere at first But that’s I’m jumping ahead.

So while we’re hiding behind the it’s actually a library while we’re hiding behind the library Occasionally people go by and see this random dude dress like doc and this random dude dress like Marty and they have no idea Especially if they’re coming from that direction like they’re coming from behind the library to the race They haven’t seen that a little ring yet.

So it makes even less sense So fine one guy comes up and sees that we’re there.

We’re standing at a shed that’s behind this library That’s directly across from the race start and he sees us there.

He’s like cool Hey, what’s up, and then he goes around behind the shed and starts peeing This is weird is weird because there’s porta potties everywhere and because he saw we were right there like he’s peeing right where we are It was very odd And when he walked away, I was like that was a weird choice, but I said it in my doc Brown voice Which is not I’m gonna be clear.

Not a great doc I don’t have a great doc Brown.

My doc Brown sounds a whole lot like Larry David.

I’m clear enthusiasm like That was a weird choice and he said nothing and walked away.

It was a weird choice, though Then you know, like I said, we get the cue we come out we do our scene it goes really well and we’re supposed to be kicking off the race actually a guest of honor who’s a Nice kid who was paralyzed in a football game he was the one we were kind of teeing up to introduce the race to kick off the race and he did and He says okay five four three two one go and then nothing starts nobody starts racing and it turns out there was some other Technical problem that they had to address and so then he had to start the race a second time Which was a little bit anti-climactic but people really liked us and then we were like, hey Can you stay and take pictures with folks when they finish the race luckily running a 5k doesn’t take all that long So 15 minutes later we started taking photos with stuff with people the only real problem was it was Hilariously hot like comically hot.

I Think it was roughly 400 degrees Fahrenheit So I really sweat quite heavily as Doc Brown with that wig, but we did it we got the photos We made people happy and yeah other than that guy who peed it was a good experience I mean, I’m happy for people to be just not on me Lex You
