Hunter S. Thompson & Conan O’Brien, Drinking & Shooting

When Hunter S. Thompson agreed to make his debut appearance on Late Night with Conan O’Brien, he refused to come to the studio, but instead requested that Conan meet him on a farm in upstate New York to “shoot guns and drink hard liquor”. The video from this show is really hilarious and has been re-uploaded to YouTube (it’s been up there in the past), so watch it now before the DMCA notice is sent.

The bartender they use is great, not only does he pour whiskey, but he will also serve you the gun of your choice. Oh and note that at one point Hunter asks for a propane canister to liven things up. Now that brings back memories.
