I hope Gyllenhaal does the photo booth.

Or the kissing booth.

I'm hoping the TDF Pik a tix booth will be back this year

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 8/30/12 at 7:30pm

It's there every year.

I can't wait! Karen Olivo already mentioned that she'll be back at the autograph table. I think it was on her tumblr page or twitter. Can't remember which.

I'm so excited!! When do they usually announce the show booths/celebrities at the autograph table?

I have never gone, but if the weather is reasonable, this may be the year!

What is the TDF pick a tix booth?

^You pay for a bunch of tickets and pull them apart. If any of yours says winner, you win a pair of tickets to something. It's very random and difficult to win. I have not won anything in the 3 years I've gone so far.

I actually won last year. And unfortunately I got Lion King tickets, so I traded them to someone for Mary Poppins and Phantom tickets. Not bad at all.

What happened to your avatar, pops?

"I actually won lost year."

Sounds awesome! Sorry to hear it.

Would it be appropriate to bring pets to the Flea Market? SInce it's outdoors, I'd like to bring my pit bull, Minnie Fay, along with me.

[Jordan Catalano]

Do you really have a pit bull, Dolly? If you do, I'd say you probably shouldn't bring her since it gets very crowded there and she can easily get stepped on.

If you don't have a pit bull and this was your attempt at humor by saying pit bulls are mean dogs and it would be funny to have one in a big crowd, well might I suggest that you go to hell since pit bulls are one of the nicest breeds of dogs ever and it's the Asshole owners who breed them and train them to be nasty. My french bulldog will only play with pit bulls, boxers, rottweilers, etc and I'd trust him alone with any of those breeds before letting him alone for five seconds with a yorkie.

I wasn't joking, Jordan. I inherited my son's pit bulls. Indeed, they are very good dogs and terrific around children. Minnie Fay is the best in crowds, though. Barnaby and Ernestina are a bit fussy when they're around too many people.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 8/31/12 at 12:29pm

Well of that's true, I wouldn't bring her since as I said, it gets so crowded there it will be impossible for her to have room to walk.

[Dollypop]

Posted: 8/31/12 at 12:30pm

I'll take your advice, then.

Thanks for the input.

I can feel the anticipation all the way in CA... and how I wish I could go. I would totally look for a "Nice Work" playbill signed by the cast, or a window card, since it was the first OBC I've seen!

Beyond that, I think I would just enjoy the chaos :)

So excited! I'll actually be working this year, though I'm not sure what table yet.

[gstrus2]

Going to this this year:) Wondering if there was a booth in particular where you can find a bunch of playbills (old and new). I collect.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 9/10/12 at 9:13pm

You can find them all over the place. But there's usually one booth with thousands of them for sale.
