Andre Agassi Talks Disruptive Dad on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'Andre Agassi's father didn't attend many of the tennis star's matches. It was Mike Agassi's attempt to not distract his son or make him nervous. But he still managed to cause an outrageous scene during a tournament clincher against Pete Sampras.

First, Mike alarmed security when he showed up without a ticket, Agassi explained on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (weeknights, 12:05AM ET on ABC).

It also means that Dana might have to cancel her date with Gordon, Rebecca won't be able to see her first live broadcast of the show, and Dana might have to hand the show over to Sally's 2am show.

But it gives Jeremy time to write a letter to his sister Louise, who's in college but is thinking about quitting because of boyfriend problems.
