Shortly after JT (It's a Tobin thing Founding Member John Tobin) met Mr. Bell, he came back over in my direction and proceeded to put on his It's a Tobin thing shirt. I couldn't help thinking... you waited in Tobin's line all morning... you met him... you got his autograph... you took a picture with him... and NOW you put your damn shirt on! Dude!? (It's ok - he makes up for it : P)

Next, JT gets into Leigh Whannell's line (SAW Creator). Now, to be honest, I'm really not paying attention, but at some point I glance over and see both Leigh and JT standing - JT has his back to Leigh and Leigh seems to be checking out the shirt. I'm of course very intrigued by this, but you have to realize there're a lot of things happening where I am, so once again I glance away and really think nothing of it. Then suddenly, JT runs straight towards me and goes-- "Jenny! Do you have an extra shirt???!" I go... "...What??" -- "Leigh wants one!" In about 2 seconds all of the blood in my head leaves as I come to understand that not only has Leigh Whannell asked for a shirt that I created, but that I no longer have any shirts to give! I had given the last shirt to JT and my last It's a Tobin thing hat to another Member. At this point random thoughts begin to soar through my head--

I'm wearing my It's a Tobin thing shirt -- there are boxes around -- maybe I can just jump into one, rip my shirt off, throw it out and just stay there for the rest of the day! -- Not the most appropriate thing I've ever done, but I'm willing to live with it!

JT must have somehow been reading my thoughts because immediately he begins to tug at his own shirt - which would have worked perfectly had his shirt size been compatible, but we quickly agreed that it wasn't. Thankfully Jette (It's a Tobin thing Member) offered hers up - she had a better size and wasn't currently wearing it... however, by 'not currently wearing it' I mean it was buried in her suitcase that was with the bell-hops. ...You should've seen that poor bell-hop when I went running over babbling I'm having a shirt emergency!!!

Anyway, all turned out quite well. I fished Jette's shirt out, stole the hat away from one of my other Members (sorry Isabel!) - gave both the shirt and hat to JT, who in turn ran back over and delivered them to Leigh.

In closing...

LEIGH WHANNELL HAS THE IT'S A TOBIN THING SHIRT AND HAT!!!!!

: D!
