Bill Murray Drives Taxi So Cabbie Can Practice Saxophone
Here is another reason to love the hilarious mind of Bill Murray. He was in Oakland on his way to the Toronto Film Festival when he met a musician cabbie who never gets to practice. Since his saxophone was in the trunk, Murray told him he should get in the back seat, and then he drove the cab all the way to Sausalito.

Here is another reason to love the hilarious mind of Bill Murray.

He was attending the Toronto International Film Festival September 5, on the date officially named Billy Murray Day, which featured screenings of old films like Ghostbusters and Groundhog Day and the premiere of his latest movie St. Vincent.

"I said, ‘When do you practice?' He said, ‘I drive 14 hours a day.'"

When the driver told him the sax was in the trunk, Murray told the cabbie, "Pull over and get in the back, I know how to drive a car.' "

"Not only did he play all the way to Sausalito, which is a long way, we stopped and got barbecue. And it made for a beautiful night!"
