In that picture, the eyes of Ross Grimely are actually staring into your soul. I don't know if I'll be able to work for the rest of the afternoon after seeing that (oh darn).

Hollywood revenge was visited on Mr. Zabka for messing up Daniel-san's nice outfit with spaghetti sauce in "Just one of the Guys" if you remember the hysterical lunch room scene with all the dorky kids chest-pressing the cafeteria tables.

Forgot about Back to School. Wow, three dicky roles in a row. No way can you comeback from that, even as The Equalizer's son.

When we decided to have an '80s night, and learned that Billy Zabka lived lived in Grass Valley (near Sacramento), it was a natural to try and get him.

i'm sorry. no. this was not your reasoning. what you meant to say was, nobody in l.a. would return our phone calls so we tried this asshole.

Not only did he sweep Daniel Russo's leg in a pivotal scene in the 1984 film The Karate Kid, but let us not forget that he was also responsible for smashing Daniel's boom box at the beach, and trashing his bike.

Don't forget how he ruined Daniel-San's awesome all-white outfit by making him run into the waiter with a plate full of spaghetti. Dick.
