In a moment that Darius Rucker will certainly never let his friend Woody Harrelson forget, the former ‘Hootie and the Blowfish’ star got to be the bigger star. A set of pictures has been going viral over the past few days and Darius Rucker himself has even weighed in on it.

The scene was this: Woody Harrelson and Darius Rucker were at a bar. Two girls recognized the ‘Wagon Wheel’ singer and asked Rucker’s companion to take a picture of them with Darius. They later looked at their phone and realized that person was Woody Harrelson and he’d taken a selfie on their phone.

Darius Rucker shared the photos recently on Threads and later responded on X, here’s how it all played out:

After the story went viral on Threads and TikTok where it has nearly 3 million views, Darius Rucker hopped onto X and shared this post after the TODAY Show picked up the news. He had this to say:

You just know that Darius Rucker will never ever ever ever ever let Woody Harrelson, one of the biggest stars in Hollywood over the past few decades, ever forget the time Darius was the bigger star for the night. And you just KNOW that Woody being Woody, somehow down to earth after all these years, enjoyed every second out of that interaction.

This is also a good moment to recognize that Woody Harrelson’s life seems exponentially more interesting than most celebrities. Case in point, the time he and Flea went naked skiing
