I don't know why the alcohol thing is so- institutionalized. It's a given now: actor goes to con, must have alcohol. Bad bad custom to introduce. As long as it's just trash talking and a bit of rowdiness or lack of concentration, nothing's going to happen, even if it isn't the most professional attitude to take- I mean, it is WORK for them, after all. I don't know many professions where you're encouraged to get drunk while promoting your product! But I do wonder if it's going to backfire spectacularly some day. This seems to be a guys-only trend, I think? Or it's only the guys that I've heard behaving like this. What was Jason like when you met him? And PAUL?! Behaving badly? Wow, I would so not expect that from him at all.
Yeah, there were a few kids in the audience, and Chris acknowledged them and all- but proceeded to behave just as he pleased, so...I guess it didn't really matter to him. I would be a bit worried if I were the parents, or maybe they're such fans that they couldn't care less how their idol behaved, 'it's all good because it's a Stargate actor, they can do no wrong'...?
