I met Chuck Norris once, when I applied for a job on a new TV show he was starting up,
“Walker Texas Ranger”
I was actually offered the job, but it was an unpaid internship in Dallas,
Where I didn’t know anyone or had a place to live.
I toyed with the idea of sleeping in my car, eating set food and showing….. somewhere- I hadn’t figured that out…. I was around 23/24 years old….. I could have done something like that back then.
I turned the job down.
I’ve often wondered what would have happened if I stayed on that job.
When I say I “met” Chuck Norris, he was in the room as I waited for my job interview. I never spoke to him.
Noble Willingham, who went on to play “CD” on that show, was there. He was regaling the room with his impersonation of Jack Palance from “City Slickers” ( everyone in the room loved it, we were all chuckling)
Chuck was there with a semi famous martial artist, Benny Urquidez.
He was talking to what I assumed was one of the show’s producers about some new leg training device.
