He has a sense of humor and quick wit as well. When a little kid walked up almost crying he asked Mr. T "why did you beat up Rocky". Mr. T thought for just a second and then told him it was just for the movie, and in real life he and Rocky are the best of friends. After my kids walked up and shook hands with him I said "quick thinking T". He smiled big and thanked me for bringing the kids to meet him...totally cool.
