Wow, that title has a lot of acronyms…that is Mystery
Science Theater 3000 San Diego ComicCon.
The Shout! Booth had a signing for MST3K. All you needed to
do was buy some MST3K merchandise. I bought a bottle opener.
And that opened my opportunity to get the mini poster
signed. ‘Opened’ get it? See what I did
there…I used the bottle opener to open an opportunity… Hey folks, the jokes are
just as bad on MST3K. You should be rolling on the floor with that…
I digress. I got to
the Shout! Booth early. They told me to come back about 15 minutes before the signing.
Oh how naïve they are. By then they will be
drowning in nerds. They have been at SDCC a very long time. They should know
better.
One we got past the line management issues and setting up
the booth for the signing after the start time, and doing a press interview
to delay the start time more, things went swimmingly. (See, I did it again: drowning/swimmingly…
phooey on all of you…)
They rushed us through. That was okay; I had other places to
be.
It was a good signing, and considering the cramped location,
it’s amazing I have 8 signatures on the poster.
I think I correctly identified the named and locations. And NO, Patton
Oswalt was NOT there. I guess the next time he comes to town I can try to get his ‘graph.
