This is one of the best Adam Sandler stories you'll ever hear
Brad Pitt retells the story:
"You were at NYU. And it was an acting coach, or acting professor. You guys went to a bar. And he kindly said to you:
'Think about something else. Listen, you've got a heart, but you don't have it. Choose another path.'
[Years later] you run into him at your [peak], when you're getting the ultimate payday... you're with a bunch of friends, and you run into him at a bar.
Anyone would think that's the opportunity where you rub it in his face.
And reportedly, what you did was say 'hi,' and you introduced him to your friends, and you said:
'This is the only teacher to ever buy me a beer.'
I love that. I think that's great and the guy I know. And I think that's why you're here after all these years."
This is an important human lesson on humility that everyone should be reminded of
