    I never heard this. But I’m surprised his security didn’t stop this. And just send someone out to get a pizza for him.

      Agents stopped him, but I’d remind that this was not that long after the USSR was dissolved, and he was apparently fairly skilled (even drunk) at evading his own security detail.

      It happened multiple times during the same trip iirc, and agents did get him pizza.

        I’m just imagining him climbing out of a bathroom window and sliding down a drain pipe, while screaming, “none of you understand me I hate all of you!”
