The Magic Mike star says he sometimes breaks into a “cold sweat” recalling the moment.
“I’m such a fan, and still am,” he recalled.
“I sat down next to him, and I was like, ‘Hey, man.

Where are you from?'
and I was like, ‘I just asked Matt Damon where he’s from.'”
“He knew I was freaking out and just didn’t even acknowledge it.
Because he’s such a personable guy,” Tatum said.
“He just took care of me in that moment and answered me.
It was like nothing ever happened.
He was just like, ‘Oh, I’m from Boston.
Where are you from?’
and I was like, ‘I’m from Florida.’
In my head I just kept screaming: ‘I’m sorry.
I’m sorry!'”
