There's been another sighting of actor Gerard Butler hanging out in Rochester, and, more importantly, spending time with Olmsted County Sheriff's Deputies! More on that in a second. The celebrity sighting excitement began last week.

Gerard Butler was caught hanging out in downtown Rochester. Maybe he was in town for a Mayo check-up? Or maybe he loves Snappy Stop? Perhaps he heard he could golf at 8-area courses for only $84 and wanted to hit the links? We don't know why he was in Rochester, but it looks like he was having a good time.

Butler was recently spotted hanging out at the super popular Thursdays Downtown event in Rochester.
