And with the release of [_El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie_](https://time.com/5690489/aaron-paul-breaking-bad-el-camino-interview/ "undefined") imminent, the show’s following is apparently only growing stronger. During a Wednesday appearance on _Jimmy Kimmel Live!_, [Aaron Paul](https://time.com/5695085/aaron-paul-bryan-cranston-reunite-breaking-bad-movie/ "undefined") — a.k.a. the one and only Jesse Pinkman — shared a few stories about the crazy interactions he had with fans while hosting a scavenger hunt for tickets to an early screening of the movie in Boise, Idaho. “It’s chaos,” Paul explained. “I mean, it is an utter s—t show.” One such tale involved a fan promising Paul that she would get “Pinkman” tattooed on her lip if he gave her a ticket, which he did. Later, when he arrived at the screening, she was waiting to show him that she had fulfilled her promise before making her way to the theater. “I mean, she has that forever,” Paul quipped while showing off a picture of the tat in question.  Jimmy Kimmel Live/ABC _El Camino_ hits Netflix on Friday, Oct. 11.
