Poker night at the Smith house, November 2004 . . .
Jada Pinkett Smith: I see that 25 and raise 500.
Abe Vigoda: Whoa, that’s too rich for me!
Jackie Chan: Yeah, me too. I’m out.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
Jada Pinkett Smith: What about you, baby?
Will Smith: I wanna keep going with this hand, but I’m all outta cash, honey.
Jada Pinkett Smith: Tell you what, we can keep going, but here’s the deal — you lose, and you can’t make any more sequels to Bad Boys.
Will Smith: Oh, it’s like that, huh? Okay, but if I win, here’s what you gotta do. Ha-ha, check this out — you gotta form a heavy metal band, a real heavy metal band, and be the singer, and go do that Ozzfest next summer, and then after that make a record and go out on a national tour, just like I used to do.
Jada Pinkett Smith: Will, I know I’m an actor, but that’s ridiculous! But okay, I’ll take that bet, ’cause look what I got — full house, kings over queens. Beat that.
Will Smith: Straight flush, baby! Awww yeeeahhh! Get ready to growl, Miss Metal! Hahahahaha!
Abe Vigoda: Oh snap!
