[Groop] Groo Crew coming to my town - what to do?

[Gary Grossmann]

Hey promethea at kc.rr.com!

Listen to Larry.  Larry gives good advice.  Always tell Sergio and any member of the Groo Crew that you are a member of the Groop.  That way they know you are a real true blue Groo fan who won't take something that's signed and sell it on ebay the next day.  

Most of all just be yourself!  (Unless, of course, you are a creepy guy or unsanitary or something, in which case you should be someone else.  But don't be me, cuz that would be even worse!  And don't be Sergio, cuz that would really confuse things, and don't...uh...hmm...er...Listen to Larry.  Larry gives good advice.)

        I'd bring a couple of items that you would like autographed. A STACK of items is considered rude. IMMEDIATELY identify yourself as being from the Groop,too! Otherwise, I end to stand aside while others get autographs,and save my chatting for whenthere is no one waiting for him. Offer to get him something to drink, too, Sergio can always use a break. 

        In general, don't be TOO doting, just be friendly, the Groo Crew definitely appreciated people who are friendly without being aggressively so. As much as we tease Gary, one reason Sergio and Maek get along so well with him is that he treats them as people, as FRIENDS, not as gods. That is always appreciated.

        That's actually good advice for meeting ANY famous people. "Don't be scary' LOL!!!

Of course, I'll try to get whatever I can for the groop - exactly how best
to do that is another question... Suggestions?

Are you taking requests for us unfortunates who can't attend? I know I
would
love to get a convention flyer or poster (especially if it features similar
art showcasing the Groo Crew's presence, like what is shown on the
convention web-site) signed by Sergio, Mark, Stan, and Tom.

Thanks,

Just happened to find a mention that my town [KC] still has an occasional
Comic Con, and, who should be featured but our own dream team?



Question is, what do I do now?



I've been in the COMICON "not driving" carpool sooooo long,
I'm not sure
what one actually does at these things ... Do I need to have my legs
surgically altered to pencil-thinness and hunt down a blue VCR tape and go
in costume?  Do I bring every item I own for signature or just hover
creepily around Sergio's booth?  Do I move all my kin to the highest ground
in the event the state sinks? Stock up on cheesedip? Is there a Groo fanboy
FAQ somewhere?    HELP!
