Big Lick NOVA 2025, Part III - Chandler Riggs, Lou Ferrigno, And Billy West

After obtaining my signatures from Rick Leonardi, the next person I was hoping to get things signed from still wasn't there. As such, I made my way across the convention hall to the "celebrity" guest side.

The person my girl was there for, and who she hit first before wandering around the place to get photos, was Chandler Riggs, Carl of The Walking Dead. Though she has a signed Funko Pop from him, she wanted to get her other three signed by him.

Well, let me rephrase. She took all three with her, said she was probably only going to get one, but then got all three. Seems I'm rubbing off on her.

I guess that's what he calls a signature...

As for me, my next stop was the table of Lou Ferrigno, TV's The Incredible Hulk. I was really surprised that I literally just walked right up to his table. There was no line at all. Sandy told me later that was just by chance, as his line was at least a hundred people deep when the show first opened.

I got him to sign my complete DVD set of the show...

...and decided to grab a few prints while there.

I'm honestly baffled by why he signed his name over Stan Lee.

Did I need three prints from Lou? Nah. I didn't. However, I'm a firm believer in taking full advantage of what could be a once in a lifetime opportunity. I mean, is Mr. Ferrigno honestly going to come around year after year? I don't know.

Though I wanted to get Billy West's autograph next, he hadn't arrived just yet. As such, I went back across the convention hall, did a bit more shopping, got my other signatures, and came back later.

My main goal was to get my complete Ren And Stimpy Show series signed, which I did...

...But I also knew I wasn't leaving that table without getting some signed prints...Which I did.

Billy not only personalized each one with catch phrases from the show, but also entertained everyone in line with the voices of the characters. It was a fantastic experience.

With all my signatures acquired, I went back to wandering the floor, buying several more books, and returning back to one table to get a few more signatures a result of said purchases.
