Six degree's of Kevin Bacon in Akasaka

Beer never tasted this good. I had a hard day at work and at quitting time my tastebuds were calling for some malty hops. In response to my biological needs I headed to the local pub with a colleague of mine to enjoy our favorite beverage. During our conversations over a couple of cold ones, we came onto the subject of movies; which led us onto the infamous drinking game of the six degree's of kevin bacon. The game involves the selection of an actor (any known to man) which the person needs to link back back to Kevin bacon in six moves (movies). I would love to give you an example, but if my life depended on this game I would not be able to blog this.

Anyway I gave my friend the task of linking back two of the most unlikely actors back to old kev and to my suprise he could link back both david attenborough and sigourney weaver. Amazing stuff. Good on you mate. You made my day. Cheers to you.

  1. Aren't we too young to successfully link movies back to Kevin Bacon? Still, funny. Didn't know they actually had such a game. Your friend must be a magician for pulling it off.
