An interview with Chris “Big Country” Smith, star of Columbia Pictures hit motion picture “The Other, Other Guys”

-I was a sophomore in college.

The university I went to decided they needed to raise tuition.

A classmate of mine, Bridget, in an effort to raise money and stay in school, came up with a nifty plan, where she thought she’d date guys and charge them money.

She said that “she goes out on dates all the time with a whole bunch of boys and stuff, and she kinda needed somebody to help her out, like her partner in crime. “

I told her that I could make a schedule, provide transportation services and she said “yeah, that’s what she was thinking, to make it pay...”

She said she needed my help to make sure the dates went okay, and the guys paid her, she said she’d give me a percentage.

I was just trying to help a friend.

We started making a lot of money. And wouldn’t you know it? Some of Bridget’s girlfriends decided they wanted to be a part of it.

Pretty soon there were about fourteen ladies that I was protecting while they gave me money.

I decided that I shouldn’t use my real name. I came up with the name “Big City”.

Anyway, one day I woke up and I looked in the mirror and I didn’t like what I saw. I had gotten out of control and I didn’t even realize it.

One night three of my favorite girls, Kim, Amanda and Roseann, said “we gotta take you in,” and they dropped me off in the emergency room.

That’s where I met Misty Hill. I was a mess. I made a promise to myself and to her that I would never get out of control again. I moved away to the suburbs and changed my named to “Big Country”.

And as soon as I graduated from college, I became a dispatcher for the police department. The most stable job that I could think of, a dispatcher for Law and Order.

I just don’t want to ever feel out of control like that again.
