  1. > “I’m going up this crummy little street, which is pretty skinny,” Spade continued. “And there’s two cars behind me. I don’t even notice. They’re kind of on my ass. I’m like, ‘Oh s‑‑‑.’ It’s pitch-black up there. It’s a perfect place for carjacking [or a] robbery.” Spade then pulled over before he reached his driveway, retrieving his pepper spray and hoping the vehicle would pass him.

    > However, “They pull up next to me and stopped,” he said. “Five guys in a car. And I got my window cracked.” What do they say to him? “Hey, can you sign a bunch of s‑‑‑? We got all this stuff. We got some Funkos.” Spade told them to “get the f‑‑‑ out of here.”

    > “They followed me from the Improv, two cars,” he added. “They almost got sprayed. And then I went into my driveway. I was kind of nervous now. I go, if they come behind me, I’m gonna get the gun. Just show it to him like, ‘Hey, this is for real. Now you’re in my house. You can’t do this.'”

    > The comedian stressed that the men weren’t fans, but rather people in the business of obtaining autographs for profit. “They’re not really fans. I love fans, but we talked about this before, it’s not fans,” Spade said. “It’s a business. They followed me all the way home. That’s even scarier.”

  2. I hate to say it, but stories like this are why expensive gated communities exist.

  3. How much can you really profit over a David Spade autograph?

  4. Autograph hounds and resellers are the absolute worst. No respect for people or sense of boundaries. Just a relentless pursuit for autographs to put on eBay.

  5. Im not surprised David owns a gun after what hes been through

  6. Never pull your gun to show someone something..

    Please Dave..

  8. That’s a bummer.  I think those laws are unfair to the famous.

    *But you still walked around the Patagonia store in Tahoe, dropping clothes on the floor, Farley’s brother looking embarrassed. When you complained they didn’t fit, the reply was “Maybe you should try the children’s section.”*

  9. No one cares about his autograph, this screams ‘pay attention to me again!’

  10. I got my picture taken with him at a company event. Bless the photographer who framed it so you could see him standing on his tippy toes

  11. You really need to reevaluate your life if youre following David spade for an autograph in 2025.

  12. I don’t get it. There’s a market for autographs of David Spade?

  14. I would never assume he’s lying, & I love spade, as km sure that many do. But….another one? Come on, spade. Feel like we’re being Morton Downey jr’d

  18. Lol “Listen to fly on the wall with David Spade and Dana Carvey”

  20. I’m pretty sure if you ask him for an autograph, he owes YOU money

  21. His personal assistant tried to kill him, I don’t blame him for considering going and getting a gun.

  22. Y’all are forgetting the staying power of the emperors new groove. I could see Disney fans paying for a funko Kuzco.

  28. Are these professional autograph seekers in the room with us now?

  29. Wait wait wait. Lie detected. Somebody actually WANTED his autograph? Lie.

  31. In their defense, if you’re selling David Spade’s autographs, you’re gonna need a lot of them.

  34. Things that MIGHT have occurred in 1995 but definitely NOT in 2025
