    I met Mr. T once. I was a limo driver in college. He loaded up the limo with Mr T action figures to give away to kids at a church function. He was really nice.

    I don't get cable, so my TV options are very limited. I was flipping channels one night at like 2:00 when I come across some religious network, and Mr T is on it. I listened for a bit just out of curiosity and surprise. I am not a religious person, but I really liked what he had to say. He was talking about people who wear expensive suits and stuff to church, like that would impress Jesus, when Jesus would really want you to wear normal clothes and use the money you spent on the suit to help people in need. I haven't been to church in 20 years, but if more churches preached like this I would at least consider it.

So, just maybe Mr. T will reprise his role as Clubber Lang similarly to Ivan Drago!😉

    I was lucky enough to meet Mr. T as a kid back during his A Team days. It was at a meet and autograph session and when he came out (to a line of kids and their parents) he shook my hand and then held on to it for about twenty seconds while talking. It's funny, but I remember that he had warm and soft hands, and he had a gentle manner about him that felt like an old friend. He was telling the kids to be good, listen to their parents and do what they say, etc, and he just seemed like a genuinely good guy. As far as celebs to meet go, I could have done much, much worse. I still have a soft spot for the fool pityer to this day.

    What happened to MR T?....he never really disappeared from public view and everybody still knows who he is. He has done a load of charity work over the years and while his views on young people and the way they should behave were old fashioned even in the 1980s, his heart has always been in the right place. I think he could never really be a convincing movie bad guy as he was seen as a soft hearted tough guy after his time on the ATeam. And somehow he couldn't really convince as a hero either, so a big movie career eluded him. Still he was great in that Rocky movie and he hasn't done badly since.

    This is a man not just black people should aspire to, but every man and/or woman. Has his head on straight, is a role model through and through, and has the right kind of attitude towards living not only for himself but for others. I'm only slightly disappointed that I found this video by chance because of a Mr T joke told by Eddie Murphy. Curiosity led me here. Now I'm grateful for it.

    I met MR.T just outside Philly when I was a small kid in my moms station wagon with my sister. We had knocked the shifter into neutral and the car started rolling back toward traffic. MR.T and a couple other people stopped the car and pushed it back to safety. No he didn't say I pitty the fool but he did holler at us and my mom for leaving us in the car alone.

    I met Mr. T at a kid's meet & greet at a recently opened Toys R Us when I was six or seven (40 years ago!) This was when he was at the height of his A-Team fame, and when he came out in full chains, feather earrings and flexing his biceps, I thought he was going to get into character. Instead, he was smiling, he was giving words of encouragement, and shaking hands with every kid there. He took my hand for a moment and said to be good, to be mindful of parents. I really like the guy as he wanted to make a positive difference then too. My mom, aka my ride, was also impressed with him, and she isn't impressed easily. I hope Mr. T will be out there for many years to come, as there are still many fools to be pitied.

    I enjoyed "Diff'rent Strokes" when I was a kid, and Mr. T's appearance on the show capped it all off as my favorite episode. Even so, my favorite TV appearance of Mr. T was him as he was being roasted by such renowned celebrities as Rich Little and Ricky Schroeder. (As some of you might remember, Mr. T also appeared on one episode of "Silver Spoons" as Ricky's bodyguard.) "real talk" is right on the money when he says he "pities the fools who don't admire Mr. T."

He was a very nice honorable student at Dunbar Vocational High School in Chicago.

    I once witnessed Mr T in action, back in his body guard days. He was UNBELIEVABLE. He was a body guard for Leon Spinks in Chicago, just after Spinks had beaten Ali. Spinks was the champ and was in Chicago to fight an exhibition against a super tough Italian fighter named George Mostardini. In the old Chicago Amphitheater, it was one of the most surreal experiences of my life. A super electric atmosphere with most of Chicago's "Northside Italians" packing the house and raising absolute hell in favor of "their guy". The Amphitheater, or "Amp" as we used to call it, roared like the 1st century Roman Colosseum - I was scared shitless!
    Enter Mr. T, defending the current world champion and (most importantly) the 2 Championship belts that temporarily belonged to Spinks. The crowd wanted to beat Spinks themselves, let alone fight their guy. They threw beer bottles, chairs, you name it. Mr. T got Spinks into the ring in one piece and unharmed, an incredible feat in itself. The fight had to be stopped after a round or so because of the out and out hostility of that crowd. (If Mostardini had knocked out Spinks, he would not have been champion because it was only an exhibition, not an official prizefight) Nevertheless, when it came time to leave the ring, it seemed impossible that Mr. T and the small group of Spinks' entourage could get out of there - it was like a hundred against 10 people or so, talk about being in a "Lion's den". Mr. T, heroically and ferociously fought one guy after another, some time more than one at a time, and invited a few more who were taunting from afar, it took about 10-15 minutes and he got Spinks and co. out of there and I don't believe a one of them got hurt! Words truly can't describe the herculean feat that this truly was.
    I can't prove it, but I know in my heart that: 1) This incident was used in the Rocky III film that Syvester Stalone wrote, and 2) Mr. T got that part in the film because of that incident and his authentic ferociousness, which was undeniable. There's no way you could fake what I witnessed that night in the Chicago Amphitheater. Mr T is a GENUINE BADASS!!! He earned that "B.A." title - Believe it!

    Mr. T had some noticeable weight fluctuations in the 1980s. Season 1 of the A-Team premiered a year after Rocky III and he was noticeably heavier, albeit still ‘menacing.’ His mohawk was also ‘thicker’ in the A-Team than it was in Rocky III. Then Mr. T ‘slimmed down’ again for his appearance in Wrestlemania I, then bulked up again soon after that, before slimming down for Wrestlemania II where he boxed against Roddy Piper. When Mr. T hosted his cartoon, the live action Mr. T was noticeably heavier than his cartoon rendition was. Then Mr. T slimmed down again and disappeared from TV and movies for a while before ‘reappearing’ on Christian programming slimmer than he’d been in a long time, apparently because he’d battled cancer and won.
