Samwise Gamgee from the Lord of the Rings novels and films.

Who you decide to be friends with should focus on quality over quantity.

With a friend, you want someone that can be loyal.



You want someone that will have your back.



You want someone that will pick you up when you're down, literally or figuratively.



You want someone that you can hang with and talk smart with.



You want someone that you can enjoy a meal with.



You want someone that you can enjoy a pint with.



And nobody is better in all of those respects than Samwise Gamgee.

I'd hang with Indiana Jones, his dad, and then with Steve Rogers.

I'd say 90% of the characters that Paul Rudd plays and I would be best friends if we met. Likewise I feel if Paul Rudd and I met we'd be best friends.

Neo. Figure being friends with a guy who knows Kung-Fu and has lots of guns would be a good thing.

I know he's had a lot of plastic surgery, but I don't think that makes him fictional.

Just to add to my earlier post, Coach Beard or Higgins would be just as acceptable.
