Oh if you don't know that would be the King from Coming to America....
A close second was Wolverine. This guy was Logan and you can't convince me otherwise.
See...seeeeeeeeeeeee. And he was very nice about everyone asking for pics.
I will also mention the PLETHORA of f**king people dressed as Pennywise. I have no pics because I basically beelined it away from them but the costumes were accurate...VERY accurate *shudder*.
Anyways, I was super stoked for my pic, right? Right! And can I just say David Tennant is like the nicest freaking person ever. He was like hyper puppy excited the entire time. He took pics Friday evening and twice Saturday with Autographs in there someplace and a panel. And the energy never faltered.
I took my pic during the first session Saturday. I was probably the hundred and something person he saw and still just happy happy. Like how do you do that? I know its part of the job but it seemed 100% genuine.
So anyways, here's my account. I was in line forEVER but that's cool, I kept myself amused by people watching, of course! I was wearing a t-shirt...one of these years I am going to dress up! That is happening dammit! Anyways, I was in a Star Wars/Doctor Who mash up shirt.
So I finally get to the front of the line "yay"!!!! He was friendly with everyone and all laughing and smiles. It gets to my turn and I get a "point at" (Maybe a 'okay your turn'...maybe a 'nice shirt'...maybe a weird tick...no clue) and a crazy enthusiastic "Hellooooo, Good Morning!!!!" (I don't know how to type out a Scottish accent properly) and my response.. "Hello" with the biggest stupidest cheesy smile. I am so f**king lame...hahahaha. Then a 1, 2, 3 picture and you are off.
Observations:
- where does he get his freaking energy?!?!
- JFC he is significantly taller than I realized...or I am just short...or both.
- No really I fit under his armpit
- Seriously though, he had to lean over to put his arm around me
- He is so accommodating to fans
- a couple had him do a gender reveal and he was crazy excited
- some ladies had him hold a thing like he was crocheting and it was adorable
People always say don't meet your favorite whatevers because they never live up to your expectations but this was not the case for like the 3 seconds hahaha. The panel was great too. Again, INSANELY excited. How does he do that?!?!?!
So all in all a crazy fun day! Saw Stan Lee from a distance. Saw Jason Momoa by being a creeper (shoosh). Side note - I knew he was tall but good lord he is a big guy! Saw Rowena (Ruth Connell-Supernatural) just chilling in her Autograph booth. Saw Thomas Ian Nicholas taking selfies and looking like he was having a great time. The Fonz...the freaking FONZ (Henry Winkler) was there. I didn't get to meet any of these people because that would have been crazy expensive but just seeing them was super cool! Also, ran into Rob Kerkovich walking around (Sebastian-NCIS NOLA), told him hello but I didn't ask for a pic...because I am lame. He is so super sweet!
I love love love going to these. Its so much fun. Just being there, walking around, surrounded by other fans...just that its worth it. Meeting/seeing your favorite celebs is Lagniappe.
So now I have a pic with David & Jenna. Who will I get to meet next time?!?!?! Maybe I should venture away from Doctor Who....NAH! Or maybe...depends on who is coming.
Just some sights we saw (wish I had more of the cosplays...stupid phone!):
I was in line and couldn't get their attention |
Cool set up at one of the booths WWTW |
Eeep |

Let go Back....to the future! |
