Nick Nolte is doing great

July 18th, 2007 // 60 Comments

has photos of Nick Nolte at Kauai Airport Monday night passed out on the terminal floor. According to fellow passengers, Nick was passing in and out of consciousness for more than two hours after their flight was delayed due to engine problems.

According to the source, Nolte was still extremely friendly despite his groggy state — chatting with fans and allowing passengers to snap photos, however, he wasn’t entirely functional. “At one point we helped him put a dollar in the vending machine.”

This would be sad if it was anybody except Nick Nolte. It might actually be a step up for him. Compared to his normal routine of digging through dumpsters and offering sexual favors for booze money, this is like attending some fancy ball.

    Maybe he took a sleeping pill so he could nap on the flight, and then the flight got delayed?? :)

    Maybe they’ll make “Another 48 More Hours”.
    It worked for Die Hard’s Bruce Willis.

    Maybe he took ecstasy thinking he could roll around in his seat. The flight was delayed so he had to roll around on the floor instead.

    Wow, I mean…..wow, I don’t know what to say. I actually feel…sorry for this guy.

    Someone please email this to Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Avril Levigne, Nicole Richie, Kate Moss, Keith Urban, et al (the list goes on and on of the boozehounds) so they can see what GREAT ACTORS can end up looking like after an eternity of boozin’ it up.

    AND those listed are not GREAT actors, so it’s even more possible for them.

    Groggy would mean jet lag. Unable to insert a dollar into a vending machine sounds more like ‘exhaustion’ of the Lindsey Lohan type.

    I saw him in the SavOn drug store in Malibu a few years ago. It was right after he had gotten out of rehab, and he looked healthy. These pictures don’t look anything like the guy I saw. Wow.

    #24 – Ned Beatty. Hilarious.
    #22 – So you’re saying that the first “Down and Out in Beverly Hills” wasn’t acting, just Nick being Nick?
