Jodie Sweetin Reveals She and Bob Saget Survived a Drive-By Shooting

Even Jodie Sweetin couldn’t predict this harrowing incident.

The Full House star revealed that she and late costar Bob Saget survived a drive-by shooting “back in the late ‘80s, early ‘90s” while on their way to a Janet Jackson concert.

“We were parked outside of Edge of Epics going to that Janet Jackson concert,” Sweetin recounted during a ’90s Con panel with castmates Candace Cameron Bure, Lori Loughlin, John Stamos, Dave Coulier, Andrea Barber and Scott Weinger Oct. 18. “We were sitting in the car and like the window exploded. We were like, ‘Oh!”

While she and Saget were uninjured, the suspect “shot the window out of the car” and “ran off,” leaving the actress and her onscreen dad having to “wait for two station wagon taxis—because this is pre-Uber—to come and get us.”

“And then Bob had to drive me home and explain to my mom what happened,” Sweetin continued, joking that between the shooting and Saget’s history of sneaking her into the Laugh Factory, the comedian was “not always my mom’s favorite.”

 “It’s one of those like, ‘Did that actually happen?’” the 44-year-old said. “I was there and I doubt that it happened, but it actually did.”
