Last night on Jay Leno, actor and star of HBO's "Boardwalk Empire" Steve Buscemi revealed his almost career in stand up.
Buscemi blamed Paul Reiser for ruining his comedy aspirations.
Back in the '80s, Steve was trying to "make it" as a comic, and would show up at the Improv Comedy Club watching comics like Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David.
But one night at 1:00AM, there was literally no one else left to perform, and Buscemi was finally about to go on stage when Paul Reiser walked into the club and stole away Steve's chance to deliver the performance.
First up, football announcers Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth:
