I be damn.. Did he do any more acting after Saved by the Bell?


Awhile back I was bullshitting around with someone and we were did "what if Saved by the Bell was made today". These are some of the things that it would include.

- Screech- A normal kid with mild autism who has a porn addiction.

- Jessie- Other than being on the fat side and gay.. Everything else about her would be the same.

- Lisa Turtle- Would be a black girl from a semi- wealthy parents, however; she would be really "woke" and go around telling white people they are colonizers and that she is marginalized and at school she would be known at "the twerk queen".


That's all we got to.

Met him at the wine loft in Baton Rouge. Was nice to everyone and shamelessly hit on every girl in our group. RIP

I will always remember him for helping me learn an important lesson

When I first came to this website, I had no idea middle-aged men gave a shite about SBTB. When I said something less than completely worshipful about the show, I was viciously attacked and subjected to the vilest epithets.

Lesson learned: Never step on someone else's nostalgia.

For this lesson, I thank, er.... Whatever his name was.

I have no doubt his younger brother is going to skip the funeral to go on some outdoor adventure.

That’s the funny part.
This happened in the 90s.

My fraternity brother is from New Jersey and this southern girl was just tired of him.

During the Michael Jordan Golf Classic, a lot of celebrities came to town.

My school was top of any list for party schools. I was in a limo with Jerry Rice and Evander Holyfield on the way back. We had hot girls with us and they wanted us to get in so we did.


I was bouncing that night and saw what looked like Mr Belding in line.

I said,
“Are you Mr belding?” He smiled and said yes.

All these celebrities would come to the Greek bar looking for for hot white girls.

I was pissed because I was working.

All these celebrities were there but the girls were more interested in Belding than the athletes. Than anyone.

He lasered in on my frat brothers ( I want to include frat, because my real brother was there too and he was always up for a fight and would not have let it happen) woman and basically had her in stitches all night as if he’d done this before and often. Easily cashing in on his prior work in a demographic that could not leave him alone.

It became entertaining to me and the other two bouncers who happen to be my fraternity brothers as well.

We were like “y’all. I think Mr. Belding is gonna end up taking _____ home, lol“

And damn if he didn’t.

My boy was searching all throughout town but never even thought of the nicest hotel in town within happened to be an Hampton in. This was before VRBO…..and he never heard from her till the next afternoon.

He asked her,

“Did YOU HOOK UP W MR BELDING?”

She did not answer.





Eta.
My wife was an actress in LA and she mentioned that she’d run into Mr Belding before and i asked her what he was like.
She said he was hilarious.

I was like, oh shite! Did you hook up w Belding? She said, not but that he was cute and girls were on him like Velcro.

He had a game like no other I guess.

I have met and shared a few partys with Dennis. Super nice guy. Had many friends, and never let his fame go to his head.
