Holy Crap There's an Actual Real Celebrity in Town
We spotted Jim from The Office--real name: John Krasinski--having drinks at the Crocodile Friday night with Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie (who Seattlest Jack chatted with last week).
Messrs Krasinski and Gibbard commandeered a booth in the back along with a retinue of dudes and girls.
Outside, we saw Krasinski very patiently and very politely agreeing to appear in photos with various Croc patrons. One mid-30s skater dude announced that his was "goin' right up on the MySpace!" Creepy.
Krasinski was wearing sneakers, baggy jeans, a yellow, tight-fitting New York Film Academy t-shirt, and a ball cap. When one of the citizen paparazzi asked him what he was doing in town, he replied, "just visiting friends."
Saturday afternoon, a friend of ours emailed to say she saw Krasinski brunching at Coastal Kitchen.
Attention Capitol Hillians, Tom Skerritt is not the only big name in your midst.
