In a recent tribute event honoring the late Jimmy Buffett, 81-year-old actor Harrison Ford shared a humorous story of how he was inspired to get his ear pierced after a boozy lunch with Buffett and news anchor Ed Bradley. Ford recalled seeing both men with earrings and immediately getting his own ear pierced, attributing it to the infectious coolness of Buffett.Ford praised Buffett for his unique charm and kindness, noting that usually cool guys are not that nice, but Buffett was an exception. The event, titled Keep the Party Going, featured performances by music legends such as Paul McCartney, Jon Bon Jovi, and The Eagles.Ford, who shares a friendship with Buffett dating back to their pilot days, cited Buffett in reflecting on a near-fatal plane accident in 2015. Despite the incident, Ford returned to flying but made changes in his life to prioritize safety. He humorously quoted Buffett's philosophy that "S--- happens" in response to unexpected accidents.
