Carol Burnett's Latest Bio Book Signing

Tim & Carol sat in the chairs on stage behind me!
Recently my man took me to a book signing and show where Tim Conway was interviewing Carol about her new book in L.A. After the show Carol signed copies of her book and the line for that was long!

We waited over an hour and while we were waiting people would run up on stage to sit in their chairs and take pictures. Also, one woman took their water bottles from the table on stage (that Tim & Carol drank out of)! Ewe! Dedicated fans or looking for a conversation pice for their home? Really!

Anyway, Tim & Carol were so funny and everyone wanted to talk to them after the show and take pictures. Alas, this was not the venue to do that. Many people in line were disappointed that Tim was not around after the show to do that and you could tell the people there loved him as much as Carol! But this really was her night to promote her book. Yet, once we got up to the table for her to sign her book she was surrounded by staff all dressed in black who said we could not take pictures, ask for her to sign anything but the book, and to hurry it up with little to no talking to her. Also, we couldn't look at her. Well, not really, but it felt like that! I told my man that we should have just bought a pre-signed copy of her book and it would have saved us from waiting in line :)! People were hoping to meet Carol, but instead they were rushed by her and in that rush we spent $50 on two books with her signing them as quickly as possible with no eye contact. Oh well, we enjoyed the show so it wasn't a total bust and I was able to spend a nice night out with my man.
