Necessary Roughness

No, this isn’t a post about Iran…

Necessary Roughness is on television at the moment.  I was an extra in the stands for this movie.  I was also an extra in another movie.  Can you guess what the other one was?

1. Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights

3. I wouldn’t have been just an extra in that one

4. Hmm, this should be easy, since only about four or five movies have ever been made in the history of movie-making.

   

   How about a hint?!?

5. OK… OK…

   As an extra, I had to wear my BDUs and run in formation outside of a window where the scene was being filmed.  It was a nice Texas day of about 172 degrees and I think I actually sweat off one of my balls.

6. Mr. 3000 or Major League? (I was in the stands for that one! Great memories!)

9. Owen was 7 years old in 1981. He was more likely running around in his BVDs than his BDUs.

10. Need a bigger hint…Was the movie “set” in Texas or just “filmed” in Texas?  There’s a big difference.
