I just saw Tony Soprano on the street!
I'm at work here in Queens, coming back from lunch, and who do I see riding a bicycle on the street?

James Gandolfini, aka Tony Soprano! The studio where the show is filmed is close by, so he was probably just riding to work.

I asked two guys standing down the street if that was him, and they both said yes, though I recognized him the instant I saw him.

I wanted to yell out, "Tony!" but he probably would have kicked my ass or something -- though the sight of him riding that bike was funny.

It looked like a grizzly bear riding a kitten. :rofl:

1. way cool!
I was just thinking about that show...wishing they'd pull it together and get back on the air.

Kudos to you for spotting him!

9. LOL!
Livia was fabulous. The whole show went downhill after her death.

3. One of my girlfriends made out with him at college
They were at some sort of acting thing at Rutgers. She said he was a lot thinner, and claims he was good-looking at the time.

She made the mistake of telling us this when the Sopranos first came out.

8. I think he's sexy, even fat and bald.
You can catch him young and skinny, though, in "Angie", playing Geena Davis's boyfriend.

4. Good Italian that he is, Mr Gandolfini had a Vespa and would
ride it to work. Early this year he had a little accident. I don't know if he rides anymore, but I'd love to see pics of him on it.

6. Cool!
You should carry a camera with you at all times...then you can capture your celeb sightings! (well, maybe not...that wouldn't be cool, would it?)

10. He was actually going pretty fast for a guy his size.
Of course, he looked pissed-off, too -- staying in character, I guess.
