COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa – Hollywood actor Tom Hanks passed through Council Bluffs, Iowa recently and apparently was quite impressed with the residents there. In an interview this week Hanks said:
“Well, we had a flat tire just as we were about to leave the city limits of Council Bluffs and two, maybe three cars pulled over within five minutes to help us with it. And no, they had no idea who I was before they pulled over. They were very helpful and very friendly. I gotta say, I was really impressed with the people of Council Bluffs! That would’ve never happened in L.A.!”
Tom’s vehicle was back on the road within a short period of time. What a great testament to the residents of Council Bluffs!
