Dan asked Chuck about his past and how he had moments where he retaliated against fans. He said, “Yeah, and I was wrong. I think I’ve been arrested four or five times for punching people and I was wrong. It’s alright to admit you’re wrong… I was wrong when I did it. It was an overreaction.”

“Part of our job is to get heckled. People say stupid stuff to you… Unless someone physically comes at you, Grow up… Unless they get personal, turn the other cheek. I mean, you got to.”
