In a recent episode of the Hey Dude... The 90's Called! podcast, actor Will Friedle, best known for his role as Eric Matthews in the hit sitcom Boy Meets World, opened up about some interesting aspects of his past. Friedle discussed his early independence as a child and shared stories of his auditions in New York City. At just 11 years old, his busy attorney parents allowed him to make the roughly three-hour bus journey from Avon, Connecticut, to Manhattan on his own.
During these solo trips, Friedle revealed that he engaged in some entrepreneurial activities. Apart from buying cigarettes, he also purchased porn magazines, which he could later sell for a higher price to his friends back in Connecticut. Although this may sound unusual to some, Friedle recounted how the vendors at the kiosks did not hesitate to offer him both cigarettes and adult-oriented magazines, given his young age. The actor humorously remarked that his experiences resembled a 'dark Home Alone 2' situation, evoking memories of the famous film.
