A law school class of mine was a police officer in Florida, and was hired as private security to follow Burt Reynolds around during homecoming at Florida State. He told me this story. Ricardo Montalban and Dom Deluise were with them. Burt Reynolds got access to the Florida State stadium (you know he was a quarterback there) to go onto the field and throw footballs. Ol' Burt was apparently trying to impress Montalban and Deluise.

Florida was very hot, as some well know. Apparently, Reynolds had make up caked on his face which melted in the Florida heat. Makeup was running down his face. Then, to top it all off, Burt was throwing a football around, and Montalban turned to my classmate, who was standing next to Montalban, and told him "What an asshole."
