It's nuts, isn't it? It's insane how much they celebrate celebrities. Even people like gotti for example, they cheered him on, waving american flags in front of the courthouse. I was at a comic con where the hodor guy was there at the height of game of thrones. They had a huge line planned, but no one was there. I thought, since no one was in line, it would be funny to get a signature for a friend of mine who was super into got. I walked to the very front and saw a sign of how much they charge for a signature and just laughed put loud and turned around. Then i realised that's what everyone did there. It's not that no one was there, all the people who stood around there were people who already backed out of the line. And if there was a line, no one would wait in line to see mr. Celebrity.
