Woody Harrelson and Mike Pence went to college together (news to me)

Long before he became an Oscar-nominated movie star and marijuana activist, Woody Harrelson studied theology and hobnobed with a fellow Hanover College student who was also destined for big things: Vice President Mike Pence.

During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Tuesday, the host asked Harrelson if he crossed paths with Pence in the early ’80s when they both attended the small liberal arts college in Hanover, Indiana, which is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church.

“I knew him, yeah. We were both very religious,” Harrelson said. “It was a Presbyterian college at the time, and I was there on a Presbyterian scholarship, and he was involved with the church activities.”

Harrelson went on to reflect on his former friendship with Pence, saying, “I actually quite liked him. I thought he was a pretty good guy. He’s, you know, very religious. Very committed.

1. I'm so glad the story

ended well. Freaks me out they're in the same age bracket. No matter how old I get, Republicans seem way older than me.

3. Interesting story about that

There was a line in Natural Born Killers referring to a man killing a federal judge down in Texas.

Once Woody was cast, they excised the line from the script - because the killer was his father.
