I don't know if you can tell from previous posts, but I've become a bit of a True Blood fan.
And when I found out that there was going to be a special True Blood Event for fans before the beginning of Season 3, well, I had to see if I could go. I found out about the event via Facebook and I believe the HBO website.
Now that I am living in Southern CA, these things are easier to come by and easier to get to. So I got off of work in time and headed over to the Burbank AMC where the event took place on Tuesday, June 1.
WHAT HAPPENED??
Well, after arriving earlier than necessary (I WAITED IN LINE FOR 3 HOURS!!!). We were let into the theater; where we sat for another 30 minutes. Then we got a refresher of Season 2, followed by the Season 2 finale. It was fun to watch the finale with fellow fans and to see it on the big screen at the movie theater made the experience better as well. However, there were some technical difficulties during the video, which supposedly was being broadcast to us live.
Then after the video we got to watch a Sneak Peek at Season 3 and finally a live Q & A with the cast and Alan Ball (with Michael Ausiello of EW asking the questions). This video would later be available to everyone. The Q & A was fun and entertaining. Definitely loved it!
After the screening, as we were exiting the theater, we were all present with a SWAG bag and a Season 3 poster.
Included in the SWAG bag: a bottle of Tru Blood, Season 2 soundtrack, the first 3 Sookie Stackhouse books and nine mini posters, as well as the bag itself.
