The luck wasn’t so much from drawing the winning ticket but from
the chaos in the raffle organization. When
the raffles first started, the line stretched around the corner and down the
stairs and it seemed that no one would ever get a second chance to draw. Well, many
people gave up after the first attempt and even more people gave up BEFORE
their first attempt.
When I came back to the raffle area (yeah, I left for a while
to check on some other stuff) I noticed that the volunteers with raffle bags
were still out. So I walked up and
pulled several winning tickets. Robot
Chicken was one of them. Yes, God Bless
the 99%-ers who give up without trying. But
wow, what does that say about America?
I got in line just as the cast of Robot Chicken arrived. Seth
Green stood on the table so the crowd could see him and he could see over the
crowd. He just won’t be tall enough if
only stood on a chair.
The group took their time signing. Seth talked with everyone. He took
photos with people, he recorded a few phone messages, and he signed a lady’s
arm.
This lady had several tattoos from other signatures and she
wanted Seth’s added to her arm. He took
the request seriously. He examined the other tattooed signatures. He asked where
she wanted his. He took his time and
signed the desired spot.
Besides Seth Green, Matthew Senreich, Tom Root, and ZebWells signed. They were all friendly and
happy to see their fans.
