Ok...so before the expo started Friday when the lines outside were a total shit show, I managed to befriend a young lady working for the Con. She was doing the enormous job of trying to organize a few thousand people outside. Over that day and Saturday I ran into her a few more times and chatted up a bit, very nice person doing an impossible job. I guess she was a pretty high ranking person in the organization, cause when we were all lined up to go into see the Hobbits panel, she walked up to me all "Hey buddy, how would you like to go on stage and play a game with the cast?". I of course said yes, and a half hour later I'm on stage with Sean Astin, Elijah Wood, Dominic Monaghan, and Billy Boyd playing Family Feud...
Moral of the story- Always be nice to the help...
The full lineup, Frodo, Pippin, Gandalf and I vs Sam, Merry, and the other two
