My MST3K encounter



God bless CON.

So I was walking around and spotted Joel Hodgson out of the corner of my eye, walking with Frank Conniff and Mary Jo Pehl, all from Mystery Science Theater 3000. After a short internal debate of whether to approach them, I did and asked if I could have my photo taken with them. They were very nice and said sure. Then after that, Joel noticed my shirt, which says "The right people will get it," something he said on the show, and asked if he could get a photo of it with his iPhone. Of course I said yes!

Below is the audio of me breathlessly squee-ing over the encounter. For some reason I'm having trouble getting Utterli to cross post.



Later, I went to the MST3K panel, and afterwards the autograph signing, where I had them sign my copy of "Mitchell" and my photo of myself on the set from 8th grade. They were all really nice, and I got the opportunity to thank them for A. helping me survive junior high and for B. always being so good to their fans. I said the show really meant a lot to me, and I have always been, and will always be, a fan.
