When it comes to Hollywood names, Bill Murray is not like the rest. Unlike many of his peers and fellow actors, you won’t find Murray at a lavish cocktail party in Hollywood Hills. The down-to-earth comedian is more likely to be sitting behind home plate at Wrigley Field, cheering on his beloved Chicago Cubs.
That’s exactly where Robbie and Kirsten Schloss found him last week.
The couple had seats next to Murray for Monday night’s game against the Washington Nationals. Robbie says they all “talked casually” during the game and Murray playfully goofed around with them as they cheered on the home team.
“After the Cubs win I told Bill I needed him to make our pregnancy announcement,” Robbie wrote on Facebook.
He says that because he and Kirsten had struggled with infertility for so long, they had decided to wait a while before making it public. But the opportunity to get Bill Murray in on the announcement was “too fun to pass up.”
Robbie says that Bill gladly recorded the video message for them, in which he spoke to the couple’s parents saying, “I’ve got news for you, you’re going to be grandparents.”
