Torii on REAL Sports

Anyone see Torii’s piece on HBO’s REAL Sports with Bryant Gumbel last month? Just an awesome guy. (Torii, I mean, not Bryant.)

Yeah

Especially after tonite’s Angels Live. They had a segment “Hanging with Mr. Hunter”, wherein Torii tries to drive to the Big A for the first time.

Very funny.
