For a new episode of “The Skip Bayless Show” (watch below), the American sports columnist and commentator discussed attending Lil Wayne‘s private early 40th birthday party at The Nice Guy restaurant in L.A., California on September 25th.

As the event was on an NFL Sunday evening, Skip said there was “very few people” he would do this for as the Monday viewings on his “Undisputed” show are so important to himself and the show.

Bayless mentioned that when Weezy arrived to his birthday bash, he went straight over to his wife Ernestine to say “he’s [Skip] still here, you got to get him to bed”. He also added that he congratulated Tune for his Green Bay Packers team beating Tom Brady and his Tampa Bay Buccaneers team 14 – 12!

In episode 4 of UNDISPUTED‘s “#SkipRidesTheTrollerCoaster” series, which lets Skip Bayless answer questions that he could never answer on the sports show, the American sports columnist explains where his nickname “Drip Bayless” came from.

Skip reveals the background of his nickname first started in July of this year when his “close friend” Lil Wayne gifted him, Shannon Sharpe and Jenny Taft each with a necklace that had their names on, which left him “shocked” and “honored”.

“He [Lil Wayne] simply has the biggest, greatest heart of any human I have ever encountered. I do trust him and count on him as a very close friend. My wife Ernestine has gotten to know him and is actually becoming friends with Wayne’s lady. The bond is pretty deep.”

You can watch Bayless explain the story of where “Drip Bayless” came from, praise Wayne as a person, and call “No Mercy” the greatest theme song in the history of television at the start of the video after the jump below!
