“Remember when we were kids watching TV, and we never thought we would get a chance to meet our favorite stars?” asked Chris Dyer, Founder of Gallatin Comic Con. “At GCC, I have strived to create more than just a comic con, but a place where fans can come to make memories that last a lifetime. You can’t put a price on good memories. It is our hope that you will come and meet the Happy Days & Good Times cast on the 50th anniversary of both of their shows!”
