2008 LA Salute to Supernatural, Part 2

Okay - on to the main event (well, the main post-Kripke event, anyway!). Sunday of course brought Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki for photos, autographs, and general fun and nonsense. I did not have a Gold ticket, so I missed the breakfast hijinks, but the news of Jared’s formal engagement to Sandra McCoy (

I really enjoyed both parts of this account--it had some details I hadn't even heard before in other accounts and almost made me feel like I had been there. (I wish, I wish).
I got the impression from a lot I have heard and seen that Jensen is getting more comfortable with these events. Jared just seems to be having as much fun as the fans. Such sweet and natural guys. And, of course, they just seem to get prettier all the time *g*! Thanks for posting!

You're most welcome!

I always wish I could have experienced things that I missed, and appreciate every attempt by others to let me experience them vicariously, so I always try, when I've had an experience worth sharing, to give others enough to be able to feel it themselves. I'm glad it worked for you!

They are sweet, and they are beautiful, both in looks and as people. I think Jensen will always be quieter and more reserved than Jared,but that's just who he is - and he can cut loose when his funnybone gets tickled!

On things like this, I can't not share ... *grin*

Thanks so much for your detailed recap of Sunday. It really does make me so excited of getting to experience the Con and makes me love Supernatural so much more because the time they so willingly give their fans.

Thanks again.

I love them for the same reason, Lainey, and hope you get the chance to meet them!

Oh Mary! What a great report!!!!

I love your photo-ops pictures, but I think you're crazy! The one with Jared is very cute!!!!!

They're such great guys & I'm so glad that you got the opportunity to meet them. The Q&A's where they are together are always my favorites because they play so well off of one another...makes me feel like I'm hanging out with my friends (who happen to be famous!).

I adore Sandy as well. She is so sweet & genuinely nice!

As for my Steve, I'll forgive you for missing his panel...this time! *wink*

[bardicvoice]

Thanks, Rap! Maybe I'll learn to not be embarrassed about my pic with Jared - but I'm not holding my breath! *iz turning pink*

I'm very happy I met them. They matched every glowing report I'd ever heard about them being sweet, honest, and approachable. And Sandy was a doll!

Steve and his band really were great. Thanks for your forgiveness and forbearance!

Mary, Thanks for the excellent recap.I love to hear what the actors were thinking about when they did specific scenes. I own several scripts with actors notes in them,it's always so interesting to read their take on things.
I loved the pictures and if I ever get a picture with 'the boys' they'll heve to be sitting down since I'm only 4' 1" !!
I think the pic of you and Jared is adorable, and your expression looks more like'betcha wanna know where my hand is".

Thank you, Lady! That "magic actor thing" has always fascinated me, too; how an actor can make me believe in the absolute reality of the character he or she portrays never fails to amaze me. That's what drew me to Jensen the first time I saw him, as Ben in Dark Angel.

Hmm - 4'1", eh? Could you persuade them to let you sit on their laps? It might work - and THAT would be a truly great shot!

Where was my hand, anyway? Don't I want to know!!!!
