While How I Met Your Mother may be known for its impressive storyline, it wouldn’t be effective if it weren’t for the cast, especially Neil Patrick Harris who played playboy Barney in the show. Apart from the sitcom, the actor has also made spectacular performances in other projects such as A Series of Unfortunate Events, which is why he has managed to score these unbelievably crazy things:
Show Booth
It is only logical that you get something from the set of the show that’s loved by so many people and has created a bond among the cast, so Neil’s move to get the ever-famous booth from How I Met Your Mother is understandable.
To be fair, he didn’t really buy the spot where his character, Robin (Cobie Smulders), Ted (Josh Radnor), Lily (Alyson Hannigan), and Marshall (Jason Segel) used to hang out, rather he took it.
Apparently, when filming ended, Neil got the booth, although it wasn’t that surprising at all. If you are an avid fan of the actor, then you would know how his bold attitude shines through any situation.
AirPods
Like any other celebrities or human beings for that matter, Neil was also drawn to the wireless earphones that Apple offered alongside the release of its iPhone 7. However, unlike most of us who sport, or brag, white AirPods, the comedian had his customized to a black pair and black charging case, which he believes is cooler than the regular ones.

However, what he didn’t anticipate was how it could be scratched and eventually the white part will show. Neil shared the hilarious problem on Instagram and asked fans what he needed to do with it.
East Hampton Property
Yes, most celebrities invest in properties and Neil is not an exception to that. Three years ago, the multi-award-winning star bought an East Hampton property for a whopping $5.5 million!
The estate spans 3.5 acres and has a 5,250-sq. ft. house with four bedrooms and five bathrooms. Because Neil values privacy so much, this is a perfect place to raise his two kids with husband David Burtka.
Artworks
Neil and David are huge fans of art and you know how much paintings cost, right? During his interview with Vogue, the actor shared that he got one of the twins’ names, Gideon, from artist Gideon Rubin, whom he adores so much.

As such, the couple has Gideon’s painting in their Harlem house. Other artworks hanging in their walls are Kehinde Wiley’s Venus Anadyomene, Ed Ruscha’s Pico and Sepulveda, and Ahmed Alsoudani’s 2008.
