Daniel Radcliffe success, but with a bad experience

Hello :)

I was in New York last week and I had the chance to get Daniel’s autograph and a picture with him after waiting for him at his Broadway show’s stage door.
I didn’t know if he would come out and sign stuff but I decided to take a chance, and it payed off. This was my first time stage door-ing :)

Daniel is a very nice person, and he took time to sign everything he could and to take a picture with anyone who asked.

However, I can’t say the hour I spent waiting for him was the most pleasant one.
No one was there when my cousin and I arrived, but some guys showed up after 30 minutes with their bags full of goodies (HP funkos, HP books...) that they wanted Daniel to sign. They were just there to make Daniel sign their stuff so they could sell them on eBay, and they weren’t ashamed to say it. They asked if I had something for him to sign, I replied I had my notebook but that my cousin didn’t have anything, but that it was ok since he just wanted a picture anyway. Terrible mistake :roll: they spent 10 minutes trying to convince us that my cousin should take something of theirs, so Daniel could sign it, and then give it back to them. Like, what? When we refused, they became very rude to us. Anyway, Daniel comes out, and people began to push behind me. After a few minutes he comes to us, was about to sign my notebook but someone behind me decided that he should sign their copy of a HP book before so he basically put his book in front of my face. :shock:

In the end we got our autograph and our pictures, so it was a good night.
Now, if only I could let someone of his team know that half of the people there are here for money and nothing else... what a world we live in. {down}

Damn sad to hear it wasn't the most pleasant experience. I queue'd outside an arena here in Dublin to try meet U2 before soundcheck but I wants the only one with that idea, there were over 250 people waiting. I did manage to get an autograph from Bono though!

I am soooo sorry you ran into the ebays/dealers. I hate them to a tee and because of riff raff like them they have pretty much ruined the hobby and have made it much harder for us real fans to get the autograph. Thank god Daniel is soo nice to the fans and you were still able to get him.
