Back in 2009 I met one of the actresses from one of my favorite TV shows ever, Charmed. Alyssa Milano, who played Phoebe on the show, was in Chicago to promote her sports clothing line "Touch by Alyssa Milano" at the FansEdge store in The Shops at North Bridge. I saw a tweet from Shops' Twitter account and as well as Alyssa's Twitter a couple weeks in advance. I definitely was not going to pass up this amazing opportunity. I remember the event took place on a Friday from 5-7pm. My Dad and Mariola both came to meet Alyssa as well. In order to meet her we had to purchase an item from her line, which was not too expensive fortunately.
The event was very relaxed and laid back, it wasn't rushed at all. We got a chance to actually talk to her, take several pictures, and she personalized each autograph. She also tweeted me back later on that night:
You & your fam were sweet too! Thanks for coming! RT @raymondagarcia: OMG!!! I met Alyssa today @shopnorthbridge!!! She was so sweet!!!Make sure to check every Thursday as I revisit past celebrity experiences!
