Happy 72nd birthday Gary Busey! I honestly think some of his best work was when he would appear on Entourage, and the best moments were between him and Turtle. To celebrate his birthday, here is a Yes or BS.

  1. Gary Busey is playing Tara Reid's dad in Sharknado 4.
    1. Yes - He not only plays her dad but also a mad scientist. Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens airs on Syfy, July 31st, 2016.
  2. He did an ad for a video game in 2009, where all he did was scream and laugh.
    1. Yes - It was for Saints Row 2. You can see the ad below.
  3. He has said Trump stands for "Taking Redirection Understanding Massive Power".
    1. Yes - He has also endorsed Trump not only recently but also back in 2012.
  4. He claims he had an encounter with Patrick Swayze's ghost BEFORE Swayze past away.
    1. BS - But he did claim to have an encounter with Swayze's ghost when he was on Celebrity Big Brother. He said that Swayze's ghost passed through him while he was sitting by the ocean.
  5. He was in an off-broadway production of The Wizard of Oz, and played the Cowardly Lion.
    1. No, but something that has gone viral on the Internet is a picture of his the characters of The Wizard of Oz with Busey's face photoshopped on all of them.
