Marky Mark Wahlberg Gives Off Some Good Vibrations To Fans While Promoting Boardwalk Empire!
“Yeah, can you feel it baby… I can too… Come on Swing It!” There are just those days when you can’t help but quote Marky Mark… I mean he had the Funky Bunch for God sakes… lol… Okay, even though now he’s Mark Wahlberg the man who practically runs HBO, I still remember him as Marky Mark, I can’t help it!
Today, Mr. HBO himself is appearing on a talk show. I’m not really sure what he’s promoting except possibly Boardwalk Empire… Hmmmm… Anyway, I have a massive Marky Mark… Cough… I mean Mark Wahlberg collection that I have to get signed, I just have to… lol… So, I’m out and about…
4:14 p.m. – I just arrived and my Lord it’s madness…MADNESS! There are like 30 people here and it’s not even organized… No line, no barricade, just people all over the place. Crazy times… And people have formed a makeshift line as well… Random.
4:32 p.m. – Scotty is here and Anushika as well…. CB is stuck in the madness somewhere…
4:41 p.m. – I brought about five vintage magazines most are from 1992, I also have a fear mini poster, and an original The Fighter promo glove. I doubt I’m going to try and get the glove signed since it’s going to be madness and I just don’t want to ruin it. It’s super rare, so if it gets messed up, it will be hard to replace.
5:03 p.m. – It’s like a wind tunnel… Literally… See, but today, I brought my jacket… HEH HEH HEH… I’m like right smack up against Anushika, if we didn’t know each other before we do now… lol…
5:17 p.m. – There are more people arriving by the second. Crazy!
5:28 p.m. – I’m so hoping he signs on the way in… If we have to wait on the way out in this madness it will suck.
5:46 p.m. – CB is trying to make Winold happen. (a combination of windy and cold) It’s not going to happen.
6:02 p.m. – Oh, someone is here, everyone is yelling and screaming.. and… It’s just a woman holding a soccer jersey… Dude, that’s not Marky Mark!
6:12 p.m. – CB is spouting nonsense…
6:25 p.m. – Oh, the door is… not opening… bummer… the later it is the less chance there is of Marky Mark signing on the way in…
6:36 p.m. – Okay, it looks like we have some action…
6:41 p.m. – He’s here… Wow, that was almost a Poltergeist quote…
6:42 p.m. – and there he is! Everyone screams for him, Marky Mark waves and motions he has to go inside… Then he stops and looks at us for a second. I think he says he has to finish his call first.
6:44 p.m. – Okay, here he comes… Mark starts signing on the fence first and then continues down the line… I swear he is just signing his life away.
Mark is getting closer now, he’s not doing pictures and honestly it’s pretty much chaos…
6:45 p.m. – Mark comes to our side now and signs my Fear mini poster.
and then he moves down and starts signing again… I whip out my Detour magazine (it’s a Canadian magazine that’s no longer in publication) and then Mark see’s it and is like, “Whoa” then signs it.
6:46 p.m. – Mark Wahlberg is going down the entire line, and just signing and signing all the while telling people he has to go in.
Scotty got his Marky Mark cassette single signed, and I ran over and got my 1992 Details Magazine signed.
Then I just had this photo from the US Magazine book that I removed.
It’s already on cardboard so I shoved that in there and he signed that as well.
Mark continues to sign and sign and sign and sign, until finally he has to go in.
He even stops towards the end of the fence and signs again for a final person. Crazy…
Mark Wahlberg is super rad, and I’m very thankful he’s so fan friendly.
Until next time kids…
