VIDEO Bill Murray crashes bachelor party, offers relationship advice
In this week’s edition of Bill Murray is an Awesome Human, the Caddyshack star was caught on camera doling out advice at a random bachelor party.
One of the partygoers shared the backstory with Deadspin.
Over Memorial Day weekend, 20 of my buddies from Boston College got together in Charleston for our friend EJ’s bachelor party. At one point during dinner at a steakhouse, one guy goes to the bathroom downstairs and sees Bill Murray sitting with some people with a fishing vest on. We talked to the waiter to see if we could send him some drinks, to which Bill declined. One of my buddies then went down and asked if he’d come up and say a few words for EJ and got a “No thanks.” My buddy comes back up dejected and tells us it’s not going to happen. Two minutes later, Bill f**king Murray walks into the room and gives this speech.
A two-time divorcé, Bill kept it short, sweet and insightful.
If you have someone who you think is the one, don’t just sort of think, your ordinary mind, and think, ‘Oh, OK, let’s make a date, let’s plan this and make a party and get married.’ Take that person and travel around the world. Buy a plane ticket for the two of you to travel all around the world and go to places that are hard to go to and hard to get out of. And if when you come back to JFK, when you land at JFK, and you’re still in love with that person, get married at the airport.
Perfect… And not just because that’s really good advice.
