Alec Baldwin Ended Crazy Nights with 'Galaga'

Alec Baldwin Ended Crazy Nights with 'Galaga'We've heard of video games being used to rehabilitate people before, but this is certainly the first we've heard of it being used to cope with addiction. In the new book 'Moments of Clarity,' which compiles the stories of former addicts, actor Alec Baldwin, costar of the Golden Globes-sweeping '30 Rock,' reveals that he used to end his drug and booze-filled nights by stumbling into an arcade around 9am to log a couple hours worth of 'Galaga' to unwind.

Baldwin credits a man named Lenny with helping him get sober, but we wouldn't be surprised if the looks of pity given to him by Julian, the proprietor of the arcade who opened up every morning just for Baldwin, helped push him into rehab. [From: Joystiq]
