Christine Baranski Taught Julianna Margulies How to Avoid Fan Selfies at the Met
One of the biggest difficulties of being famous — or what Christine Baranski would call a “Champagne problem” — is the prospect of smartphone-wielding fans asking for selfies.

Mike Babcock wants Jagr’s autograph: ‘he’s modern day Gordie Howe’
His overall body of the work throughout his career speaks for itself. He is going to finish in the top-five (probably the top-two) all-time in goals and points, he has collected a pile of individual awards (five scoring titles, two Ted Lindsay awards, and an MVP) and has played on two Stanley Cup winning teams. You can count the number of players that have an NHL resume like that on one hand and still have fingers remaining.

We happened to be in town during the latest tour stop of the New Kids on the Block. Apparently I had a passing resemblance to Joey McIntyre because a tweenage girl asked me for my autograph while on a walking tour.

Starting this website has been a labor of love. I love sharing my fandom experiences but more than that I love hearing everyone else’s stories. I love hearing about conventions, movie locations, meet celebrities good and bad, I love it all.
I sincerely hope you enjoy my exploits, the adventures of everyone who submits an article, and all the members of the Fanboy Family!
