The Hollywood Celebrities Show
October 17-18, 2009, Chicago, Illinois
We headed to Chicago to see Larry Hagman at the Hollywood Celebrities Show. Larry signed autographs and greeted fans for two days. He had the largest set up, with three tables covered with photos from both Dallas and I Dream of Jeannie, his book, Hagman money, and Dallas DVDs. Larry also had the nicest chair, by far! The high leather chair was customized with Larry's signature surrounded by leaves. The seat was engraved with "JR", and the side pocket sported "LH".
Larry remembered us from previous events, and gave us a warm welcome. He was busy both days, delighting fans with his charming personality. Jenilee Harrison, who was on Dallas, also attended the show, and was happy to see Hagman again. It was fun to see how thrilled fans were to meet him! At one point Larry went over to Mickey Rooney's table and got photos taken. Rooney, his wife Jan, and Hagman also spoke to Val Kilmer at one point, creating a frenzy while people, myself included, grabbed their cameras to capture three generations of stars!
