Backstage Blog: A Hysterical Pregnancy...Mistake

Posted: Tue 07/10/2012 03:09 PM
So far, I've shown you how some of our questions come from experiences right in our office. But, one of the tonight's queries sprang from one of my absolute favorite stories about my brother.

Todd is 5 years older than me and is one of those big brothers that a kid can spend their entire life trying to live up to. Smart, funny, beloved... He was a golden child and is now a pretty golden grown-up. He's a guy that can be counted on in almost any situation—but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t make the occasional hilarious mistake.

About 15 years ago, Todd and I were in Orlando, Florida, en route to a cruise ship. I was about to begin my second contract as an improv comic onboard, and I was bringing my big brother along for his first. We were waiting in the airport at the baggage carousel when a homeless man approached my brother and asked him for money. Todd said that he didn’t have any and the man turned and left. He slowly walked over to some chairs, where an equally disheveled woman was waiting. From where we were standing, we could easily see her protruding belly and surmised that she was pregnant. A touching look came over Todd’s face. You could see him imagining the difficult life that would lay before that child and felt deep guilt for not helping the man.

Todd walked over to the couple and handed the man a twenty dollar bill. Todd waved off the man's thanks, pointed to the woman’s belly and said, "You just take good care of that baby, OK?"

To which the man replied, "She’s not pregnant."
