Harrison Ford told the story of how Jimmy Buffett, who passed away in September, inspired him to pierce his ear on Saturday during a tribute event in Los Angeles. 

The 81-year-old actor took the stage at the Hollywood Bowl on Friday during a concert called Keep the Party Going: A Tribute to Jimmy Buffett.

'I remember a long — some might say "boozy" — lunch with Jimmy and Ed Bradley, and it was Bradley's birthday. I saw both of them had earrings. So right after lunch, I got my ear pierced,' Ford remembered fondly. 

'That's just how infectious Jimmy's coolness is — infectious enough for a 40-year-old man to spontaneously get his f***ing ear pierced,' he added.

The Indiana Jones star shared the anecdote before introducing Zac Brown Band.
