A Look Inside Brad Pitt's 'Man Cave'
Apparently Brad Pitt has a bunch of special back rooms:
"As a father of six, Pitt complains he no longer has the energy for parties. He
prefers to invite other fathers, including his fellow star Matt Damon, to
play in back rooms stuffed with gadgets in the homes he shares with Angelina
Jolie, the American actress, in California, Louisiana and the south of
France. The man cave, defined in the online Urban Dictionary as 'a room ...
specifically reserved for a male to work [and] play without interruption ...
or female influence', is a world away from the British den, traditionally a
garage or garden shed. Visitors to Pitt’s home in Malibu, California, say he keeps a vintage
Wurlitzer jukebox and an array of flatscreen televisions, with cords snaking
beneath the wheels of motorbikes, including a Harley-Davidson Bad Boy and a
Confederate Hellcat. Buddies sit revving the engines while drinking beer and
talking about sport. Other essentials such as a 'kegerator' — a refrigerator designed to chill beer
kegs — have taken the cost of completing the 'cave' to about $200,000
(£125,000), according to a business associate.
The man cave in Pitt’s 19th-century New Orleans home is more decorous, filled
with architectural models and his collection of rock’n’roll records."

For those of us not commanding stratospheric salaries, my "Man Cave" consists of a very prominent butt imprint on the right hand side of the living room couch and my very own television remote control. To travel abroad means I am sitting on the left hand side of the couch. Sometimes to trade up, I will sit on the Naugahyde love seat.
My "Kegerator" is generally what ever left over bottles of what ever are parked on the top shelf above the left over pot roast.
Some day, perhaps, Angelina will understand...

I don't understand what the point of this article is. He likes to play, who doesn't? He seems to be a likeable guy. If his toys were more highbrow, he would be labeled as pretentious. I'd like to hit that kegerator and listen to a few of his stories. Seems like a regular joe.
Brad, you can call me anytime to hang in your mancave.

Funny, Pitt sold that Malibu house TWO YEARS AGO!!! Guess those Brit papers didn't hear about that. And they refer to Angelina Jolie as "the American actress" as if nobody knows who she is. How weird!!
I agree with Bobman, Braddy can drink beer with me anytime. He sounds like a good guy to me.

We all know that George Clooney is the only one who breaches the entrance to Brad's "man cave". They're not fooling anybody but themselves and the losers who put them on a pedestal.
