Rob Lowe turns 51 years old on March 17th this year. He’s spent decades entertaining us as Ponyboy’s cool brother in The Outsiders, as Tommy’s cool brother in Tommy Boy, and as Robert F. Kennedy’s cool brother, John, in Killing Kennedy—he really is just the coolest. As huge Parks and Recreation fans, we think one of his coolest roles yet is the uber-positive Chris Traeger. We thought we’d celebrate Rob's birthday by compiling a list of our five favorite Chris Traeger moments. Enjoy.
- If only we could all have Chris Traeger as a caddy:
- When Chris showed us that with the right attitude, any music can be good music:
- And that even superhumans can let illness get the best of them:
- Who could forget this gem? You can always count on Traeger to drop some solid life advice.
- Who remembers when Rob Lowe lost his cool behind the scenes? Warning: adult language.
