He explained that they were "two 6-foot-6 guys — 12-by-12."
In the resulting altercation one of the large men spat in Galifianakis' face, shocking the actor and comedian.
Galifianakis said to O'Brien: "I don't know if you've ever been spit in your face, non-sexually…"
The actor married fiancée, Quinn Lundberg, in a ceremony last August. The nuptials were said to have been relatively low key, but did see some famous guests attend, including Hangover co-stars Bradley Cooper and Ed Helms.
The couple had been dating for about two years prior to the wedding, and they had been engaged only since June 2012 before tying the knot in August.
Galifianakis will star in the latest installment of the popular movie series The Hangover, with the third part of the series scheduled to be released nationwide on May 24. The third installment in believed to be the final film in the franchise.
The film will no doubt follow a similar theme as the first two, although the film will be set in Las Vegas this time.
The promotional material for The Hangover 3 states: "This time, there's no wedding. No bachelor party. What could go wrong, right? But when the Wolfpack hits the road, all bets are off."
Here is a video of Zach interviewing Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence:
