LOL, if it had been the waiter, it would not have been viewed as a "swipe," right? ^-^

There was an auction last week on ebay called "Jonathan Frid Dark Shadows Dinner!".  In the description, the seller claimed to have had dinner with Frid and some friends at Ruth's Chris Steak House on the Saturday of the fest.  Frid ordered a lamb chop which he didn't finish so this person had the half-eaten meat wrapped in a foil bag, kept it in a fridge, and four days later listed it on eBay.  The site removed the auction after less than a day probably because of health code violations.  The seller's ebay name was redceltt, whoever that is.

Frid ordered a lamb chop
Barnabas bit Lamb Chop? Now that is just cruel, unless she kept singing "The Song That Doesn't End."  ;D

Lamb chop!  You mean the poor guy didn't even get the free meal the rest of us (well we paid $60 but not for the actual food REALLY) did.  Wow I would have thought all your expenses would be paid if you did a convention as a guest.

I wonder if someone ,just glancing at the headline of the item, wouldn't think Jonathan wasn't auctioning off the chance to have dinner with him and chat about Dark Shadows!  He could probably just earn a living (and lose his sanity) doing that if he really needed to.

The Arsenic script is a really neat item as I think I saw him do the show in Boston (I thought it was 88 but others have told me 87 is accurate) and he scared me quite a bit as a spry 8 year old.  I can only imagine the laughter if Jonathan's response to why he killed a man would have been "he said I had a face that looked like Barnabas Collins".

Oddly enough though Jonathan did look a bit like Karloff for the production I always felt.
