Kevin Bacon Game - How Close Are You?

[Dinkeldog]

1. I was in "War and Remembrance" with Sharon Stone

2. Sharon Stone was in "He Said, She Said" with Kevin Bacon

How freaking scary is that?

Let's see, I was in Little Big League with Kevin Dunn, who was in Stir of Echoes with Kevin Bacon.

I can also take a slightly longer route. My cousin is Jamie Farr, who was in Scrooged with Bill Murray, who was in Wild Things with Kevin Bacon.

An even longer route: I was in Purple Rain with Prince, who was in Under the Cherry Moon with John Rico, who was in Le Cerveau with Eli Wallach, who was in Mystic River with Kevin Bacon.

So, I have a Bacon Index of 2, 3, AND 4, from three different sources. Wow, that's sort of scary when you think of it.

i was sad because i didn't think i had a Bacon Number, and then i realized i did!

i went to high school with Troy Vincent, who...
played for the Miami Dolphins at the same time as Dan Marino, who...
was in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective with Troy Evans, who...
was in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles with Kevin Bacon.

i'm so relieved.

1.) A few years back, I was helping a friend who was running a booth at the big comic con in NYC. Since I was a "guest", I got to ride up in the service elevator that the pros and celebrities used. On one trip, I rode up with June "Lost In Space" Lockhart and Yvonne "Batgirl" Craig.

2.) June Lockhart was in The Big Picture (1989) with Kevin Bacon.

I'm sure you can probably get there from Yvonne Craig as well.

If you want a professional connection, I used to work on the MTV series, Daria. With all the staff, writers, and voice actors (not to mention that we shared a floor with Celebrity Deathmatch and that a very short-lived show, Spy Groove, was on the floor above us), I'm sure there's a connection somewhere. But I'm too lazy to look.

A good friend from my youth's brother who I knew played young Rudy in Rudy with Sean Astin.
Sean Astin was in White Water Summer with Kevin Bacon.

I provided technical advice to Jeph Loeb, who directed Firestorm.
Firestorm starred Howie Long, who was in Broken Arrow with Christian Slater.
Christian Slater was in Murder In The First with Kevin Bacon.

Awright, so here's my spiel.

1. I went through my MBA (and worked the same internship) as Kyle Pounds.
2. He grew up in Baytown where he knew Renee Zellwieger when they were kids (she apparently fell and cut her forehead on his porch once.)
3. Renee was in Jerrry MacGuire with Tom Cruise.
4. Tom Cruise was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon.

Tada! Beat that one!

My college room mate's older brother was Bacon's personal assistant on the filming of "Down the Line" (I think that's the title). We were offered walk on parts but it was during finals week and we opted to not go. I know...idiots.

So...
1. Kevin Bacon
2. Terry Treece
3. Jim Treece (the room mate)

I also dated a girl who's cousin was Heather Lockyears' high school prom date.

Missing Pieces

Someone will have to help me with the Kevin Bacon part, but I can make a loop:

I met a woman who's son dated Toni Basil, who was a coreographer on one of David Bowie's tours.

I knew a guy who went to college with David Bowie's son.

 

[ragboy]

1. I had a teacher who met Meg Ryan.
2. Meg Ryan was in Sleepless in Seattle with Tom Hanks.
3. Tom Hanks was in Apollo 13 with Kevin Bacon.

Meg Ryan was in In the Cut WITH Kevin Bacon...

Here's mine:

1. My best friend was in Courage Under Fire...
2. Meg Ryan, etc.

Wait! I have a shorter one...
I hung out with Willie Nelson at his house
Willie Nelson was in Last Party with Tim Robbins
Tim Robbins was in Mystic River with Kevin Bacon

Actually...that one's the same, but my best friend was there, so we had a weird circle of Kevin Bacon going there...creepy.

Someone will have to help me with the Kevin Bacon part <snip> I knew a guy who went to college with David Bowie's son.

David Bowie was in Labyrinth with Jennifer Connelly, who has already been linked in I believe two steps somewhere else in this thread to Kevin Bacon. If that's right, that gives you a Bacon score of 6.

However, since you're posting on a thread with Diaglo, who ran into Bacon at an airport, you have a better (worse?) score of 2, just like every one else on this thread!
