Because of his role as Ron Swanson on ParksAndRecreation, Nick Offerman is sometimes given excessive amounts of bacon while dining. 'You can’t eat that much bacon, you’ll die ... I learned a long time ago to carry small Ziplocs all over my person.”😂
Due to his role as Ron Swanson on Parks and Recreation, Nick Offerman is sometimes given excessive amounts of bacon by fans, but he's got a great strategy to deal with it. First airing on NBC in 2009, Parks and Recreation follows passionate, midlevel bureaucrat Leslie Knope as she attempts to beautify her small Indiana town. Offerman also plays a pivotal role in the show as Swanson, a meat-loving libertarian who serves as the director of Knope's department.
Offerman is now more than seven years removed from the end of Parks and Recreation and most recently appeared on HBO's The Last of Us, but he is still often recognized because of his role as Swanson. One particular aspect of Swanson that some fans have honed in on is the character's love of meat and, in particular, bacon. While not opposed the generous meat offerings he sometimes receives, the actor reveals that he does have a useful strategy when the quantity becomes overwhelming.
And then humorously, after the show, I usually need a beer or something to cool down or to bring the adrenaline down. Sometimes the hotel would be closed so I’d go to a bar or restaurant, and again, people they conflate me with Ron Swanson. So things started happening where like a cheeseburger would arrive with an inch and a half of bacon stacked on it. An impossible amount of bacon. And I would look over and out of a kitchen window a cook would be like [gives thumbs up].
