On a day around mid-October I decided to hit up two cons plus a comedy show. First was CSA show. It only had one movie name that I wanted, namely Samm Levine. But I got photo ops with Mark Moseley, Muggsy Bogues (update), and Gheorghe Muresan (update). I actually like this photo with Gheorghe better than my previous one because you can see how big he is compared to me. Then I went to the table of Samm Levine and got the photo op.
Then I made the impromptu decision to go to Carlisle Comic Con in Carlisle, PA. My driving force to go there was for actor Aaron Smolinski. He played the child Superman in the original Christopher Reeves Superman movie. Hardly anyone left for me to meet from the Reeves Superman movies so couldn't pass up a chance for that. I drove there and as soon as I got there I went up to his table and got a photo op with him and a second with him holding a poster of the iconic image of him lifting the car.
Next I went up to the table of Jason Paige who sang the English version of the Pokemon theme song. I got the free photo op. He was signing Pokemon cards which to me doesn't seem valid. To boot, some cards were encapsulated and graded, and he was signing them on the plastic capsule. Like, what is the point of that?
I then got free photos with comic book artists Mark McKenna and Rick Hoberg. I showed Lorenzo Lamas my photo op from RICC years ago. I then got an upgrade with no beard. I also showed actress Jamie Donnelly my Grease group op from Chiller years ago. I then got a solo shot. Ended the con with a free photo op with animator Rick Catizone.
Full list of Carlisle Comic Con
Drove out of the con and on the way home and decided to stop by a venue. Two actors were doing a comedy show. Ronny Chieng (Crazy Rich Asians) who I have, and Hasan Minhaj (The Spy Who Dumped Me, No Hard Feelings, Tron: Ares) who I don't have. Wait there and they came out late, and when they did come out they came out at once which complicated things
They signaled for us over to come but that did not sit well with the two security guards who were yelling at us saying we're trespassing. Despite the chaos we got photo ops. One of the security guards (who I've known for years) asked me for a ride to the metro to make up for the trouble I've caused. I waited for him to go back inside and get his stuff then gave him a ride to the metro.
