Imagine standing for hours on end with your swollen ankles, tired feet, and aching back just to see your HERO!
Loyal fans of Stan Lee have waited hours just to spend a few moments with the man they grew up with. I recall with great excitement, my heart racing, my energy fully charged, and simply feeling pure happiness knowing that in just a few minutes I will be seeing Stan Lee for the first time. The momentous occasion happened so fast, but I'll never forget.....as Mr. Lee signed our Captain America Issue # 101 Canvas... Jacob said Stan's most famous word with the greatest joy from his boyish heart to the man and you know what....? Stan looked up and said with great vigor in his voice..... "EXCELSIOR!!!" with the mighty fist of Thor.
For some, Stan Lee was the creator, the father of their beloved superheroes. You knew that they would be there no matter how treacherous the journey or how tiny the chances were of success, they would go and right the wrongs of their evil counterparts. When all else fails in the world the heroes saved the day. They showed us that no matter what obstacles stood in their way somehow they would find a path through it.
Millions of loyal Stan Lee fans have traveled all over the world just to be in his presence. MegaCon Orlando 2017 was to be his last visit to Florida but after Hurricane Irma's devastating path of wreckage, Mr. Lee wanted to aide those severely affected by the aftermath. He came back to Florida to MegaCon Tampa Bay 2017. There he helped auction off some unique items plus a once in a lifetime mega fan experience ---- dinner with Stan Lee himself and a fully paid trip to Los Angeles where that lucky person gets to hang out Stan "The Man" himself. There were other amazing items and special experiences also offered during the auction like a cameo in the upcoming "Jay and Silent Bob Reboot" film. The convention's organizers matched the money raised in the auction. All proceeds were given to Feeding Florida.
Excelsior! - Stan "The Man" Lee
