Samuel L. Jackson Visits ATL Gun Show

[Retired W4]

I was a pretty good crowd at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds this weekend and my show partner comes back to our table and says Samuel L. Jackson was here. I said, yea, right, and a friend asked if he brought any snakes. Steve said no, he's right over there and left to go talk with him. Don't know why he was in "Atlannuh" but he decided to attend the show. I was hoping he brought John Travolta with him, but no. Steve was able to get a picture of him for posterity.

I am actually quite surprised, I figured him to be another anti-gun Hollywood type!

 

[robvious]

He may be doing "research" for a role and not really interested... or he could be there for the jerky and gutter guards.. lol

Slumming it at the gun show, he’s got the gun bug for sure!! He’s like the rest of us, hoping to run into that hidden treasure…

 

[Retired W4]

The problem being, I could not sell him a gun. Not a Georgia resident.

...... He’s like the rest of us, hoping to run into that hidden treasure…

No, probably not. He had a reason to be there but it definitely ain't because "he's one of 'us'." Joe

“I don’t think it’s about more gun control,” said Samuel L. Jackson, who stars as a conniving house slave in Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming revenge fantasy “Django Unchained.” “I grew up in the South with guns everywhere and we never shot anyone. This [shooting] is about people who aren’t taught the value of life.”

Tom, if you would have had a swear jar you could have made bank.

In the movie Pulp Fiction, he appears to be familiar with firearms

I probably would have made the mistake of pointing at his shirt and saying, "What?"

If hes at a gun show where he can’t legally buy a gun then he really is a gun guy. Just wants to look.

Say what again

That's the Atlanta pronunciation, as interpreted by a yankee.

 

[Rustyt1953]

In the mid 70's when I went to the Underground everyone pronounced it "Atlannuh".

There you go ya'll.

You see, I was born in Boston, MA so I know how to pronounce stuff.

 

[rwsmith]

You mean.....

.....he's one of US????

That's cool!

If he paid to get in the promoters welcome him.

Listen to Margaret Mitchell properly pronounce Atlanta.
