Hi Craig.

I wrote to you some time ago about the premiere. I’m also a super fan and did research and made it to Vegas for the red carpet!! They gave away a plethora of Rambo souvenirs (Including Rambo cookies) which were all free and fantastic! I’m thrilled that i saw my idol. I never expected I would do so.

Since people were sending their pics in I would be honored to be shown in my old school Rambo shirt at the premiere and am sending my pic of Sly too!

SZoner Meets Sly

Craig / February 3, 2008 / 2008, Sly Fan

Hello Craig,

My name is Jarred. I am a loyal StalloneZoner. I check every Sunday. These are exciting times for us Stallone fans. I went to the red carpet premiere for my B-day. We stayed at Planet Hollywood, and the red carpet was so packed and when Stallone finally showed up 5 minutes before they were gonna start the movie his people rushed him past all the fans. So I was highly disappointed but happy to be there. So the next morning we went to breakfast at a very good coffee shop in the casino. They sat us next to a large table, where Sly’s mom was sitting. There was a few open seats at her table, my girlfriend suggested that he might show up. 2 minutes later he did. He sat for breakfast 4 feet from me, I could not believe it. His wife, kids and entourage were seated on the other end of the coffee shop. So he made a few trips back and forth. I snagged him one of the times. And got my prized picture!

On January 23rd, Dustin Hennick sent in the photo above of a piece of art that he created in hope that he could get Sly to autograph it at the “Rambo” premiere.

As you can see from the above photo Sly did sign it as his daughter looked on.

Sly signing Dustin’s art was picked up by a couple of wire services!

Dustin sent in this close-up of Sly’s autograph! Congrats and thanks to Dustin for sharing this experience with us. Hopefully we’ll see more of Dustin’s art in the future. – Craig
