He was at Tony's in Mk only two tables away. He was so sweet! I'm still suffering from a nerdgasm over it. I've crushed on him since goonies. My kids love goonies. Rudy. Samwise from the LOTR! Had to explain to my 3 year old he's the voice of agent oso.
 
He just finished filming the movie, Woodlawn, where I live in Birmingham, Alabama. This is actually the second movie he has filmed here. The first one was Mom's Night Out. It was hilarious! One of my favorite movies he was in was 50 First Dates....he cracked me up in that movie!
 
Omg! That is so awesome! I would love to meet him, he is one of my all time faves!
 

He's doing the Dopey challenge this week and is doing the speaker series at the marathon weekend expo from Wednesday through Saturday,I'm going to try to see him speak on Saturday after running the half marathon.For an 80's-90's movie nerd like myself there's no way I could miss seeing Mikey from Goonies.
 
He was wearing a Run Disney shirt.

Of course,he's their big celeb doing the races this year.Two years ago it was Joey Fatone,last year it was supposed to be Drew Carey but he got hurt and couldn't run and only did a few limited events,this year it's Sean.
 
He's such a nice and down to earth guy, seen him a couple of times at cons and he LOVES his fans at those, really enjoys meeting them. Glad you got to see him, it is always so cool!
 
He was such a sweetheart when we met him before the Disneyland half. He and his family were coming off Grizzly River Run and they were just drenched. He reacted positively I fans so we went to meet him. Very chatty, kind, interested, and sweet. Meanwhile his family was buying practically all new, dry, clothes at the store right there. He did the Dumbo.
 
He should have gotten an Oscar nomination for his LOTR Sam! He was fantastic!

I also love 50 first Dates
 
He ran last year's Princess Half Marathon, too (he was in Corral A, and I was in Corral G, darnit).
 
So cool! I just watched the Goonies this past weekend! Love him!
