He grew up in Melbourne, FL (my hometown). My boss went to HS with him. During breaks from SNL, he would come to his home in Melbourne Beach. He shopped at the Wild Oats/Whole Foods I worked at. Super nice guy. The first time he came in, a lot of employees (me included) around him and were talking with him. He was really cool. Said he was in a hurry, but still took the time to say hi, and do a photo with the a few employees in front of the store.
